what's an appropriate age differential?
Posted: 8/25/2009 2:43:58 PM

I think age doesn't matter as much as maturity.... but thats me..... I have the body of a 90 year old, and the mind of a 4 year old.


I'm not sure it's age or maturity as much as a total conncetion. I recently dated a nice guy 20 years older, and we are still great friends, but we weren't meshing well. I think the age difference ... at least at THIS point in my life... was part of the problem.

And jack, your body doesn't look a day over 61. You ARE being modest.

My maturity tends to slip around a bit. I'm pretty sure Saturday I was acting 15 (and Sunday maybe 60).

...and I get along great with kids (why I love Jack -- who doesn't?)

^^^^^ I find myself pondering on whether 11 years is too great a differential.
Of course, for me, it's always Sunday!

Yeah, and I noticed quite a few pedophiles lurking around you. At least with Jack, it seems a lot more innocent.

Haha... I'll say -- the most risque thing we do together is color outside the lines...

^^^^^ It's not really a fib..... We do color outside the lines..... Just because I try and color inside the lines and can't.... It doesn't make it a real fib.... She just didn't know.

I meant the "the most risque thing we do together" part -

C'mon Jack, you only get so much free awe factor for having been married to her... try to show a little mystique. Although, come to think of it, coloring together IS kinda sexy. OK, you get to hold on to your man card - but only because I'm a romantic myself.

an internet junkie Petrified Wood who has no life obviously otherwise won't sit here like an old lady the whole day needs to go to Jerry Springer show like many other Americans do and tell how he gave head to his own mother, father and sister. There is no any other country in the world where the ones like Petrified *^*^hean bang their own relatives.

and/ or, there are threads here where some male internet junkies like him tell how they suck their own mothers, and how they have sex with their own sisters, no wonder he has no respect for family and not surprisingly no Canadian or European wrote about having sex with their family members, only Americans.

Naw... no reason to have sex with family members. Not with your family of hookers so close by. Tell mom and sis thanks for the two-for-one discount.

Hey..... take a deep breath before your head explodes.

None of that has anything to do with the topic..... unless it is a way of trying to establish your age? Just relax, run some water and take a bubble bath, you know... light some candles and put on some nice soft music.

Just make sure you have the appropriate age differential in there with you.

and no... 13 is not appropriate.... just because we act like we are 12.

Well on the subject of going back on topic...

I believe in the "Rule of 7." I haven't read all five pages of this thread, so I don't know if its been posted yet, but here it is (maybe again XD):
Take your age, divide it by 2, then subtract 7.
Then take that number, and add it to and subtract it from your age, and it will give you the suggested limits for an age differential. This is most commonly applied to dating only.

I'm 22, so my differential is between 18-26yo's, for example (22/2-7=4; so 22+/-4).

Rule of 7?..

So a 50 year old than would be, 25-7 = 18 so that would be 32-68?

So what about the 32 year old? 16-7 = 9 so that would be 23-41?

So how do you get this 32 year old together with the 50 year old?


I like the concept.... But unfortunately, someone taught me math.

Haha well played! I never really thought much about it, and I guess it shows. I wonder if there's a way to incorporate the lower bounds into it...I may try to figure something out. Hopefully it won't look horridly confusing. I might just have to chart it out...maybe there's some correlation there that will yield a new formula?

The age differential is all Bull, it depends on the persons involved. My last relationship I was 15 years older, she had a hard time keeping up with me.

I would say between 80% and 120% of your own age, with 18 being the minimum age in years. Get out yer calculators people and use some of "those keys" that you don't understand.

I prefer to date men older than myself, however, I have my limits. There's a gentleman who is 3xs my age and very genuenly interested in me. He's not at all bad to look at, and he's very sweet. However, I'd like to have a full life with someone...not the last 15-20 years the guy has left, and I'm not sure if I want to have children or not...I'd like to have the option. Anyway, that's my two cents. Best of luck to all of you! :)

3x your age and he's got 20 years left. Either you're very young or very optimistic.

My husband was 14 years older than I. That's too much I think. I was young and naive and didn't listen to my parents. I think five years older would be fine - no more. Hopefully, the 20-year-olds will calm down with the emails eventually.

Yes, for dating there is math, geography and history... and possibly biology.
