    i'm a 23 year old female. my longest relationship was with a 55 year old man(4 yrs long). i'm not dating a 45 year old man and he's perfect! i've dated guys my age, but they only text. i prefer people who call me, and that happens to be older men.

    I had a strong rule no one younger or the same age. Must be taller and old than me. I married a 21 year old and I'm 27. So I'm the joke now lol. But hey he cooks, he cleans, give back rubs and so on. Older guys were always very traditional and I can't cook.

    Women: -2 years to +4
    Men: -1 year to +8

    My range is:

    w = 0.5*m -5 to 0.5*m + 10, where m is my age, and w is the woman's age. (w is greater than legal minimum age of consent).

    So for me a 59 that puts the range from 25 to 40 for starting a relationship with someone.

    Age is just a number to me to be honest and its more about how the person acts and lives their life. So I really don't have a range. Pretty interesting to know that I would be outside most of the MFP ladies range and I am going to be a pretty lonely guy ;)

    No worries! You would never be lonely!

    I think 8 down max and 10 up.

    I'm 22 and engaged to a 24 year old now. I've never been one to date around or have many relationships. I've literally had three and each time the guy was older than me.

    But really its about the person.. That said I don't think I could date someone too young. Freshman college girls i think best when they date college boys or their professors(kidding)

    cant say for sure because i may meet someone who is too special to turn down out of this age range, but i'd say 25-late 30's (i'm 33)

    so far never dated anyone outside of a 3 year age gap from me though for some reason

    I'm 41 (married) so not on the dating scene.
    Probably no younger than 35 & no older than 50.

    My first boyfriend was 1 year younger, the second boyfriend was 3 years younger, and my husband is 5 years older. I never dated much (I was very picky about what type of guys I dated).
