Despite being born in 1997, I feel like it would be an age gap. Plus, I'm not really comfortable about younger women.
What about you?
your choice but people born in 2000 are 21 now so not that much of an age gap in my opinion
my dad and hiswife have 15 years gap... she was 21 when they met and they still love eachother
just wanted to share an example
My parents too have an age gap of 19 years, but my father was 36-37 when my mother was 16.
This is probably why I don't like younger girls, I don't want to be like him.
oh i see, we all take a part of your parentsd but we can make our own choices
I see not why that would be an issue. Two adults dating each other. So if one person was born in 1999 and he is dating someone who was born in 2000 or 2001, I see not how this is suppose to be an issue... Someone who was born in 2000 would turn 21 this year. If they would date someone who is 3 years older, which is a very common age gap, that means they are dating someone who was born in 1997 or 1998. How is this an issue?
I would uncomfortable with that. 90s kids (I'm '93) grew up is a world that was so totally different from what the 2000s babies grew up in. There just isn't much cultural overlap, I feel like.
Exactly.
Although I from '97 and a bit closer to 2000, I feel I have much more in common with people my age or older.
I’m not attracted to wrinkles and white hair but I want a guy that will be at the same stage of life as me when I am older and less robust so I would not date a guy that much younger than me but a little younger or older is fine.

I was born in 1989. And to date someone born in the 2000s, does feel weird to me. I was 12 years old then lol.
But in all seriousness, people born in the 2000s. Think they know more, but can’t figure out what they want. So that to me, is a dealbreaker.
The century itself wouldn't bother me but considering I tend to go for older guys with age gaps of 2 - 15 years, I think finding a younger guy who I find mature enough to have a thing with is unlikely, I'm also a 97 kid
i was born in 1995. I find the kids born in 2000 tend to know nothing more than iphones, ipads, snapchat, cell phones, internet addiction. they never knew what life was possibly like without these things. and i feel sorry for them.
I hate social media, granny
@AFellowWeeb We feel sorry for you. You never knew how much fun it was to run around , screaming with other kids was. It was hella fun. We had different games back then prior to texting too. there's actually life outside of the internet,
I grew up playing football ( soccer ) outside
Im good at all competitive sports
@AFellowWeeb just cuz you can play football, it doesn't mean you knew what life was like back then. Life was actually cool back then. Now its just being dead with your cell phone.
Like i said, i hate social media
@AFellowWeeb if you are without social media, things would be dead. Real life has been dead since 2011.
You probably use more social media than i do, i only use whatsapp when in my phone, or discord when on computer. Never even had insta, i dont like that app at all, and my face has spider webs growing on it.
@AFellowWeeb even if u don’t use social media. It’s still not gonna be the same as before
I wouldn’t date anyone under 30. I’m very firm on that.
My eldest child will be 26 this year, and it’s too close.
It’s not about life stages for me as such. It’s about what I’m comfy with and how well I click with someone. I’m with someone younger right now. I did have to consider hard whether to date him, but we match so well. I’m never marrying again, but I probably could date someone 60, providing they are young looking and physically attractive to me.
Age isn’t a barrier really, but sadly a lot of men my own age have generally let themselves go, (and I’m not referring to extra weight or baldness.)
Ugh! I think that comes under being physically attractive! If he’s slow and doddery what use would he be to me? Being fit and able at any age is a must, in my opinion! And if they looked younger than their years, all the better. I look in my early thirties. 25 apparently when I’m wearing my fringe down lol. (So my boyfriend said last week)
Anyway, you’re young. 60 doesn’t seem as old to me as it does you.
Not really, my class was full of 2000 kids. The only thing that I would not date someone would be being immature.
It shouldn’t make that much of a difference unless you’re dating a mathematician. When you start dating someone it’s not like you immediately ask what year they were born in. Plus, this is only a 3-year age gap for you, which is minuscule especially once you get into your late 20s and early 30s
Not at all. But I’m flexible about stuff like that.
No, not at all. I had a couple of flings with women born in 1999 and had a girlfriend born in 1994.
No. I have no problem with it but my age limit would be 17. So no younger than 17
Yes. The oldest person born in the 2000s would only be 21. Which makes the age gap 10+ years. I draw the line at 5 older/younger.
So dating a 21 year old who was born in 2000? I would try it as I always wanted to date someone 14 years younger than me.
Lol I still think people born after 2000 are still kids. It would feel weird for me to date someone born after 2000.
Yes it would be.
I prefer to date older men than myself but even so, I remember New Years Eve/Day night. I was 8. It boggles my mind a little to think 2000 babies are 21 this year... 😬
I was born in 1993 so that means someone 7 years my junior... super weird.
That's just over half my age but as a percentage it is only decreasing.
I was also born in 97' and I look at it this way as long as the person is at least 19, and mature, sure why not!
I was born after 2000 but I was with a guy from the 1970s
I could never date anyone born in 2000, or later. I would be at least 16 years older than them.
Just, no. Ew.
I'm boring in late 98 and I wouldn't really find it weird honestly so long as they're at least 20 it's ok.
No i think its cool. I want a younger guy anyways😳
