Is it wrong for me to go out with someone younger?

I think it should be more about compatibility....that's the truth.

and as long as they over the legal limit and you are compatible why not? I think most people say date within your age range because for MOST people that would create a higher statistical probability of compatibility (same generational experiences, same cultural comfort zones, same age related instances) however that is not true for everyone.

I date younger. It just happened that way. He's about 7 years younger and it's funny, because when we go out everyone assumes *I* am the young one and he's cradle robbing.

LOLOLOL....

but we have a high level of compatibility, we have the same humor, like the same social experiences, we both like being moderately active, he lifts, I've started lifting, he LOVES sex and can keep up with my constant need for it.

so yeah....do what suits you, not what suits everyone else.

as long as it's socially responsible and legal that is.

Not at all...I think that sometimes age is such a big deal for people that they lose sight of what might make them happy. If you have more things in common with younger women then go for it....life is too short to wonder what if...find your happy place lol

No, but I think it's odd you are looking for anyone based on age *shrug* But that's just me.

If it works and makes you happy then why not? With the exception of under 18 I wouldn't see a problem, some girls mature faster than others and have different mind sets when it comes to where they are in their lives. It's all about what works for you.

Go for it. My man is 7yrs older than me. Now I do tease his *kitten* and call him old fart every now and then... lol. But my man is fine and fit and will be like that for as long as he has control of his life. So make sure you keep that body young for your lady. (both my man and I agreed it goes both ways; yes, we're superficial like that!)

Doesn't/shouldn't matter for the most part... I think a 20 yr age difference is the biggest I would ever go.

The last woman I dated was 12 years my senior. We never had an issue and had a great relationship. It's a shame I moved out of her area...

Doesn't matter to me who you date...

... but FYI older chicks know "stuff".

Chicks in their 30's know stuff. By then they tried it all. :glasses:

It's not that I wouldn't go out with someone my age, where I live it's just hard to find. When I lived in Calif. it was no problem, it's just so limited here. So, don't go making assumptions that I wouldn't date my own age.

It was the way you phrased you initial post...you said you find it hard to date women your age because you want someone like you with your energy, etc...that's how it read. Not that you want someone like you...however, you have a hard time finding that in single women your age. Big difference.

age make no difference as long as the person is of legal age

Where the heck were you when I was 30! I think it's perfectly fine. As it stands I ended up with a much younger husband. We "go", though so it's fine.

Go=fashion term. it doesn't have to match as long as it "goes" together.

My pet hate is being patronised, so if I was with an older man, that would be my main concern.

when i was 25, i dated a 46 year old. not because i wanted to date 21 years my senior, and not because i had daddy issues, but because we connected. however, he was twice divorced, a dad, and WAY into his career. and the fact that i was still such a young'n, and very much so comparatively speaking, seemed to come between us. HOWEVER, my most recent ex was 14 years older than me and we got along like peas and carrots, as forrest gump would say. i've dated younger too--but guys younger than me are, as a general rule, more immature--and i prefer a seasoned look anyway. i'll be 30 in may. i'm going to go with compatibility when looking for a partner in crime, but i would like someone who can start a family with me (one day). that can be a wide range of ages....

nope

But I see wut ur doing thar.
