    Age isn't that big of a deal to me as long it's a good fit personality wise.

    Has to be older. At least 5-10 years. Maybe more at this rate. So over the immaturity of younger guys. Cool, you can shotgun a beer and do a keg stand. Go away.

    I tend to look for guys who are about 5 years older than me (I'm 29). I just think I'm more drawn to the maturity of an older man. I have only dated one guy who was younger than me and it just made me feel weird. I don't think age matters (as long as both people are legal, of course!) but I just really didn't care for it.

    I'm 46, and typically go for the 35-40 age group. I'm a fairly active guy, and need to be with someone who's also got a fairly active lifestyle. And while there are plenty of women my age who can run circles around me, generally speaking, the younger a person is, the more active they are.

    Having said that, the woman I'm currently interested in is coming up on 46 herself, and is freakishly fit and active.

    If I were on the prowl, I'd seek out older men. Late 30s to mid-50s. Less drama, higher chance (though never guaranteed, lol) of maturity and financially established, and smarter conversation.

    I've always been more comfortable around people who are older than me. When I was younger, I dated younger than me twice. Not even two years younger was too young. I have no patience for puppies.

    I'm not too specific, but around my age is a general rule. No one over 40, probably no one under 24-ish (I'm 27.) I'm flexible outside of that.

    I think people who assume older men are more mature haven't met too many men. They're about as mature as they're ever going to be by 30, in my experience. I think the same could actually probably be said for women, too.

    When I dated, it was always girls a few years younger. However, I met my 27 year old soon to be wife when I was 24, so that went out the window.

    I used to date 2-5 years old than me, lately 7-10 years younger. ;)
  • I always thought I preferred older men. Then I met my now husband, and he was my best friend for a year before we started dating.. Never even thought to ask how old he was... He is 13 years my junior and we are very happy...

    Each guy I've dated has been younger than the one before haha. The last one had just turned 19 when we started dating (I was 23). I think I'll go with over 19 and out of high school, and not more than 5 years older than me.
