This question was inspired by a meme I just saw, and my longtime crush on Brad Pitt, who’s 45 years older than me.
Youngest: my age. Oldest: if it’s someone in as good shape as Brad Pitt, the sky’s the limit.
I’m curious - why would you never go younger than yourself, but don’t have an issue with the older person going decades younger for you?
EDIT - just found out your 17 which changes things. I’ll get my coat.
Half your age plus 7 is an okay rule for finding the floor. Don’t aim for the floor. Plus 10 is less eyebrow raising.
I used that formula to half-jokingly look for a partner on my blog. And it worked. I was 22 and she was 27. “So old!” I thought back then. Didn’t help that she sent me a really ugly blurry photo. Still, I was desperate and liked our conversations.
Now we’re married and laugh about that “huge age gap”.
Holy shit. You’re 17. The hilarity of all the guys thristing after your content is disturbing. And all your bragging about everything you do seems incredibly creepy now.
Dave Chappell iirc
The Muslims say that the right age for a couple is the wife is half the husband’s age, plus seven years.
In Hollywood, it’s half the husband’s age, minus seven
What happens a year later when the wife’s age no longer fits the formula because she doesn’t age at half the rate that he does?
I’m currently married, so none on either end.
Why even comment?
Between Age/2+7 and Age*2-14
Youngest: at least my age, but eh.
Oldest: I prefer older women. Always have and always will.
Youngest: 18
Oldest: < deadIf you’re legal, hot, and cool, I’m down. Why not?
when I was 39, I dated someone that was 23. Never again. If I were to date again, 10 years older or younger would probably be my limit. Ideally, 5 years would probably be the best dating pool.
No one. People of any age creep me out when I think about dating them.
If they are significantly older, I think it’s like dating one of my parents.
If they are a lot younger, it seems like dating someone who could be my child (if I had one).
If they are within a decade or so of my age, it would be like dating one of my siblings.
Honestly… That sounds more like a case for therapy. I mean, if you’re asexual or something similar, fine, but otherwise, it really seems like you have some mental connections that are holding you back when it comes to dating.
It was a joke. Many people probably agree with the first two parts. The sibling bit was supposed to be the punchline.
