What is an acceptable age gap when dating? (Page 3)

Question

Im 21 and a guy has presented himself as intrested in dating me. he's 31... Its a 10 year age gap, I first met this guy when I had my first job when I was sixteen at a grocery store. he's 31 sucessful owns his own farm, and works two other side jobs just to stay busy. He works with my mom and is always asking about me. My mom jokingly made the comment "if there wasn't such an age gap youd be perfect her!" which he responded with "you know 10 years is that big of a gap." What is your opinion on age gaps? How old is to old?

Age doesn't matter, aslong as you're both adults. Personally.. I wouldn't go beyond 5 years.

My age gap for dating me. She has to be in the single digits.

1 year apart to 9 years apart.
I don’t care if she’s 9 years younger or 9 years older than me.

Of right I’m 35.
People who is born between these years
1975-1993
