    Typically, I'm attracted to people around my age. I think that I'm comfortable with about a max 8 year difference either way. Depending on the person/situation, I can be open-minded.

    The keys are physical attraction and emotional connection, or really big boobies! :laugh:

    24 through 44 :heart:

    It doesn't matter. I can't get my husband to budge on this issue. He won't let me date. :(

    I'm 29, so I guess somewhere between 27 and 37 is acceptable to me; however, I'd be willing to negotiate.

    I thinking I"d go as low as 41 and as high as 52. But really - I'm liking women (one) born in 1971.

    What about the "formula?" Minimum age to date is half your age + 7? Oldest age to date is two times (your age -7).

    Based on this I can date anything from 29.5 through age 83

    My personal rule is closer to my age than my oldest son's age (he just turned 18) and closer to my age than my dad's (he is 65) which means I can date 31.5 through 55.

    with job and kids, though..who has time to date?

    LOL with that I can date 16 year-old horny boys...no thanks. I already finished high school and would not like to relive the experience.

    I'm 32... if I was looking I'd probably go 29-40. But I suppose an open mind would be best.

    Well...age ain't nothing but a number...but if I were to apply a loose guideline, it would be 5 up, 10 down. I'm 35 so my range would be 25-40. (Dang...in print, that looks like a pretty wide window. :)

    24 to 32...I'm 28. I don't like huge age gaps...for me. My mother is 8 years older than my father.
    I don't care about what other folks age gaps as long as it makes real intellectual sense. Like Maturity levels, career and/or social interests line up. I've seen a couple with nearly 20 years different, but because they worked...they just worked....never really thought about the age gap on a regular basis. Otherwise it's a little weird. Old men with hot young chicks "just because" or "purely physical" or "midlife crisis" is whack to me. Vice-Versa too: don't like thirsty Cougars either. My personal opinion.

    Not dating but if I did he would have to be 58-70 years old. I will be 58 this year.:flowerforyou:
    NO dates for me. I'm really happy right now.

    So that would make it -0, +12. Did the younger thing, doesn't work for me.:flowerforyou:
