Age is nothing but a number, but are there limits with a cut off age?

My hubby and I are actually 11 yrs difference. I have never been with anyone more than 3 yrs older. I couldn't be happier. He is such a gentleman, old skool and treats me like a queen. Best age IMO is older.

I have never been with anyone younger than me, but age really is not a factor in a relationship for me. The oldest one I was with was 10 years older than me.

I could go 10-15 years with no hangups, 20-25 for the right person.

Personally 10 years would be my max difference for dating...if I were single 15 years or so for hooking up.

No more than ~15-16 years because you'll just be in different places in your life.

I do not have a cut off. I am usually attracted to younger guys, if they are legal, then I'm good. I'm also attracted to men older than me. There's something about my generation that makes them slightly less interesting.

For me, I would only date 10 years OLDER, not younger. For me (age 24) the range would be 21 - 35 or so. I've dated younger than 21 when I am 24 and it was annoying.

My current boyfriend is 12 years older and I can't imagine dating someone more than 20 years older than me. I'm not usually attracted to younger people, but would want someone no more than 2 years younger.

15+ is way too old.

I can't be with anyone older than me. Older guys don't do it for me. As for younger guys, about 20 years younger would be my cut-off. I have kids that age & any younger would be creepy to me.

In some cases, it's hard to relate to someone much older than me. One of my partners is 20 years my senior, but I haven't ever met anyone else that I would relate to and have common ground with.

I think the older the two people are, the less age difference matters. Like if you're 30 dating someone who is 40, or 40 dating someone who is 55. Or even if you're 25 dating someone who is 30. Age differences like that don't really matter.

But the younger, the weirder. I think a lot of people really confuse age of consent laws with legal age laws. Age of consent means the age at which someone can engage in sex with another person who is up to but no older than 18. So someone who is 16 dating someone who is 21 is not legal. It's only 5 years of difference, but the maturity gap can be pretty wide. A 16-year-old isn't even finished with high school yet whereas someone in their early or mid-20's is probably in the middle of college or finishing it.

Five years of difference when you're 30, 40, 50 doesn't matter. When you're still a teenager it does.

I've never dated anyone more than a year older or younger.

I am 31 and I am more than happy to say that I have been with someone wh is 56. He is one of the best men I know and I would never regret it.

Age of consent is a states issue so every state can set it up differently, but the term "age of consent" is meant for the age where someone can legally have sex with anyone they want over the age of consent. In the majority of states this 16 years old.

Degrees of statuary rape and exemptions are based on age of the two involved parties however.

Also of note is federal law requires both parties to be 18+ which is why someone who is 16 can have sex in their own state but cannot do interstate sex related stuff on the phone or internet.

I'd go around up to around 28 for dating but I like to stay 25 and under for serious dating.

I'm 19, and I've been with men up to 63 years old (mostly for experimental purposes). I say the oldest I can romantically be interested in at this moment is up to 45 years old. But I never say never.
