    I don't place too much focus on age. That being said the youngest I would go is probably mid 20s.

    Doesn't matter much because I'm not available anyways. lol

    I'm 23
    and I haven't dated a man under 35 in over 3years.
    I would date someone between the ages 24-40.
    But, I lean more towards the older gentlemen ;-)

    My wife of 30 years is 4 years younger than me. Everyone is different but as for me, I can't imagine being with a woman more than ten years younger.

    I'm 19 and I usually go towards guys my own age and maybe a bit older. I do like grad students though. :wink:

    I am 33. Dating is a whole other story from being monogamous or serious. So for dating... I would go with 21-45. From there...anything can happen if we are compatible. I wouldn't put off being serious with someone just because they are older or younger. That's what dating is for, it's to find out if you could be with the person long term (even if it just starts out as only fun). In other words, have fun. If it gets serious, then it gets serious. If it only ends up being fun for a short while, so be it.

    I've pretty much always dated younger. I just turned 50 and the women I find myself interested in are generally between 38-48. A couple of years back I date a gal 17yrs younger, but it was too much of an age difference for to consider anything long term.

    I don't look at the age (as long as they are of legal age), I look at the connection with the person. I've dated men 25 years older and I've dated men 20 years younger.

    I am 30, my range would be 25 to 45, I wouldn't go any younger than 25 -- I would probably go over 45.

    I'm 50; my boyfriend is 37; my ex-husband is 62! Didn't even occur to me that a younger guy would be interested in someone my age, but we've been dating for over a year & all is well.:smokin:

    34-42, I'm 36 my fiance is 34, my ex husband was 10 years older, my opinion is the 10 year age difference did not work in the long run, at least not for us, but could work for someone else..
