i think with women ya should go 20 or older to date ya shouldn't date any younger that 25 because most women dont really want serious relationships before then and it's much easier to date younger women than older women because they're much more flexible but older women tend to have much better sex though
Inuave absolutely zero problem. Also, people railing on about she/he is 16. I mean they are getting down and van be even more manipulative than people 18 and up so its whatevs. I mean I know how I was when I was 17.
10 to 15 years gap are fine if they are much older obviously but yeah I think you have a good perspective on that it seems from what you said , I wouldn’t mind someone in their late 30s
I don't think age doesn't matter as long as they are genuine and trust each other. It may be a bit awkward at first, but as time goes by if they truly like each other it may work out.
Yeah that's disgusting.. My max was 10 years younger (my wife is 9 years my junior).. Anything younger just seems like a father daughter kind of thing, and just weird and gross.
I like a DDLG relationship, which had less to do with age and more to do with personality and chemistry/play with my partner who was older than me, but I was the one in the mature and DD role.
Yet it’s perfectly acceptable for a 50 ish year old woman to “ date” an 18 year old guy? Holy double standards Batgirl ! If Cher dates any younger she’ll be dating sperm, or changing diapers.
Usually women who say they were manipulated or the guy was a predator were the ones that got played and are crying about it. Just because he's older than you doesn't mean he doesn't have game. If anything, he has more experience on how to get laid.
I'm 53 but look younger and younger women are always trying to get close to me in stores and talk to me because I'm tall and strong. So I'm somewhat suspicious of the age gap too but If she really loved me I wouldn't hold it against her.
age gap isn't big of deal but it can become if for example the woman is from 18 to 25 dating a guy who is 55 to 65 or even above that is where most 55 or 65 old mens are already grandpas lol no offensive just not a good sign
“Many people assume that age-gap couples fare poorly when it comes to relationship outcomes. But some studies find the relationship satisfaction reported by age-gap couples is higher. These couples also seem to report greater trust and commitment and lower jealousy than similar-age couples. Over three-quarters of couples where younger women are partnered with older men report satisfying romantic relationships.” - The Conversation website.
I can’t particularly reference this website since this site won’t allow it until I’m at a certain level, but I can attest to successful relationships that I can speak of anecdotally.
My best friend parents have a 10 year gap and since I’ve known him (1999), his parents have been a something to model. My best friends mom has passed since 2019 but his dad loved that woman to death. Til this day, he still mourns her and talks about her when he can. He was 10 years older than her and they were damn near perfect.
I have a cousin also with a wife and their 9 years apart. They’re very happy together as well. I have more family and friends with age gap relationships and they seem to be happy.
Also to mention that both men came from previous marriages that didn’t work out. Age isn’t an issue. It’s about what you put into your relationship, compatibility, maturity and etc.
I’m not sure where you got you information but looking at statistics doesn’t mean it’ll mean the same for everyone else. Just use your senses and judge the situation you’re in and you should be good with whomever you choose to love.
You can just google divorce rate and abuse rate. I don't know why you need to justify going after women who are old enough to be your daughter. It is like women justifying gold digging. at least wealth increase while youth decrease so what you are doing is worse
It works both ways. Women go after young men and older men go after young women. Then there’s the ones that prefer to stay in their age range. I’m not justifying anything. Just sharing with you that it’s not all bad. The point is love is blind but don’t ask if you don’t care to hear anyone’s comments about it. Simple as that.
I think two consenting adults should fuck and date without pressure of judgement of society. Period. Idc about the age gap, if its same sex, if its interracial - mind ya business 😉

I want a girl who will accept me and if age is an issue then I want her to let me know and I always believe in legal age some say age 21 and older

I think as long as you're both mature mentally age is just a number.
My last girlfriend was 12 years and nine months younger than me
I mean, as long as they love each other, I don't see no problem ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
If you are under 30 dating someone over 50 you better be getting paid for it.
Lolz

As long as both are at consent. People at consent has the decision and they're not kids with poor decision skills.
They work, and sometimes they work better than your regular relationships close in age. It’s about finding what works best for you.
How rate of abuse and rate of divorce rate is higher in age gap relationship? how they work better?

So what? Go to r/relationship etc in most abusive relationship ex seem too old also many women in reddit regret dating old men in their youth.

As long as both parties are consenting adults, it's perfectly fine
I think its gross & pretty disturbing some men are old enough to be their girlfriend's dad!
I disagree... I think anyone can be predatory but ill tell you right now, I've pretty much always preferred men in the 40s to 50s age range.
