Age? How important is it?
Posted: 4/14/2009 3:31:40 AM
It all depends on the person. There are few women under the age of 30 who would interest me for anything more than just sex. But I'm looking to develop a relationship, to have someone in my life who is significant to me, not to just have a temporary sexual partner. If a young woman shows, as on occasion some will do, extraordinary intelligence and maturity, I might take her seriously as a potential life partner. Women who look older than me don't especially interest me, but I did meet a woman, yesterday, who looked to be a good ten or 15 years older than me, who I thought was gorgeous (inside and out). My search is focused primarily on women who are about my own age, though.

I dont belive its that important. The only common tend is that generally guys go out with younger women.

I like to apply the socailly acceptable age rule, when I hear about age gaps.

Guys should half their age, and add 6, to find youngest person they could date, without others rasiing too many eyebrows! lol

age doesnt matter to me to as point.ive dated up to the age of 37. the older guys have been more mature and treat me a lot better. theyre more responsible and etc, but i also prefer a lil older than me. im 22 and usually i go for guys that are around 25 or up. i wont reject a guy if hes my age, but i wont do under my age or older than 40. sorry then it just gets to where its not too far from daddys age haha

In my personal experience, anyone under the age of 25 (remember this is just MY experience, there are exceptions) is not yet mature enough for a serious relationship. They are still immature & not sure what they want, whether they think they do or not. 25 to 32, people have a better grasp of what they want & more confiddence that they'll find it. 33 forward, that confidence starts slipping & they begin wondering if they are going to spend thier lives alone & should they just settle for the best of all previously unacceptable possibilities, although some still hold out hope for that special version of perfection. At 50 & up, it's mostly "any port in a storm".

Other people's perception of age is what makes it difficult. I dated a girl once with a 19 year old uncle and a 43 year old aunt. People think they're mother and son. My best friend's aunt and uncle are 30 years apart. People think he's a molestor.
