how many years between two people dating is too many years? i'd like to hear different opinions from wherever on the globe you guys reside. The real-life scenario is 20 yr old female dating a 27 yr old male in the US.

Yeah, its pretty much the law. Its fair to work it the other way round as well.

This type of thread comes up every other week and I always quote this cartoon - http://xkcd.com/314/

20 year old girls are insane. fact.

I'm seeing a 22 year old and I'm 30. it's pretty PG and casual right now though. I feel kinda creepy, but I look younger and he looks older so nobody would really think anything of it on sight.

I guess you just have to see what happens?

There is a 12 year difference between myself and my girlfriend. Does not mess up things though 'cause she is older than her age mentally and I am immature. Therefore the age difference cancels out and we resemble an aged single malt scotch around 28-32 years. Hope that helps ;)

I like the 'in the US' clause at the end. Because you have to take into account 20yrs + time differences

i have a thing for a 29 year old

for the longest time i thought she was 30 but it turns out she's 29 but the way i figure it i basically have a thing for a 30 year old

i hope she doesn't think that's weird

well i mean there's a lot of things about my thing for her that i think she'd think were weird but the age difference is one of those things

What are your ages? Cause that makes a huge difference in my opinion.

And i thought you were a girl too...but whats to say that you aren't just because you have a girlfriend.

Agreed it does make a big difference what ages two people are.

She is 27. But If I was 27 I would not be dating a 15 year old as that just seems off for my tastes. I understand that some cultures may think that is fine -- not mine though. Never thought I would date a younger person but life can surprise you sometimes.

it depends on her maturity level, what your expectations are, and what her experience has been.

Generally, if someone is that young and hasn't had a lot of experience, chances are you won't achieve something serious. So if you expect something long-term, I sincerely doubt that will happen. It may last a few years but even then she is probably going to end up wanting to explore.

If anything you should encourage something casual. They are at an age where exploration, going out, having fun, and figuring out what they want in the future is important. Especially if the girl isn't old enough to even legally drink yet.

Of course your experience may vary and it could work out if you do want something serious. But it's not likely.

I feel like the differences between a 20 yr old and 27 yr old are pretty vast, at least in my experience. But depends on the person...if it feels right, do it. It's not like say, dating a 42 year old when you are 21...:o

When I was 23 I dated a 31 year old. It was fine, we was even engaged for awhile.

I started dating a 26 year old when I was 19. It was good, we were together for like 3 years. I was more mature than he was and that's a fact (case in point: he lived with his parents the whole time we were together, pretty sure he still does).

People are people and compatibility is about personality and ability to communicate, not age. Give it a try, although I think the odds are probably stacked against you because as previously stated, 20 year old girls are crazy. Most of them have no idea what they want, but that may not be true of this girl.

I think the whole age vs. maturity level thing is a farce.

I don't care how mature my daughter thinks she is, if she tells me she's dating someone who's too old for her, I'm going to be upset.
And if she tells me
"No, it's totally cool, he's really immature for his age. It's like I'm dating someone my age", that's not going to make me feel any better about it, In fact I think it'll probably be worse than if it was someone who acted their age. Why not just find someone of an appropriate age then?

Appropriate according to who? Isn't it up to both members of the relationship to decide whether the age of the other person is appropriate?

i visited my buddies school this weekend and was messing around with a just turned 19 y.o. freshman.

on the other end of the spectrum.

this 45 year old woman at my work "wants to fuck the shit out of me", as said to me by another coworker. she eventually starts talking to me about it and what not. im kinda in the middle about it. she came really hard, like obsessive hard, shes ok looking though, nice creamers. but idk i kinda know now how it feels to be a girl at a bar and have some creepy guy hitting on you.


im 25 by the way. in reality i dont see anything wrong with either situation.

Half your age +7 is the appropriate age.

I didn't invent the rule, I just abide by it.


BTW, you know my relationship, I'm 37 and my GF is 30.
I'm not adverse to some age disparity in a relationship.

There's only TWO ways you'd possibly know how this feels.

1. You're a tranny and enjoy the ruse of going to bars and tricking unsuspecting young men to hit on you.

2. You're a creepy guy who hits on young girls at the bar.


I've seen your beard, so I doubt you could pull off a convincing enough tranny.

penicillin came out of a petri dish my dear. and that has saved millions of lives.

in that case, yes.



and i refer to hoodrats as they use it in the 40 y.o. virgin. not actual skanks from the hood.

20 years older than you?!?!!?

Dude do it now while you still can, there really won't be another time in your life when you bang someone who is 20 years older than you and she will still be fuckable.

Something about the age number 50 just says old.

Yeah, any logic is secondary to creamers. The creamers determine all imho.
