u +1 yI really don't think I will ever need to make that decision, since I am 68 years old and engaged. When I was single and available, I never had an age limit for dating. The decision was based on both physical attraction and my assessment of how much we share common interests. First, I'm not an old fool and the likelihood of a woman that young being interested in me is very low. But if a girl that young was interested. . .
a 20 year old girl could be very beautiful but as the age difference increases, the odds on being compatible for a LTR decrease. And I would also be very wary of the potential for a younger woman to date me on a whim, or just to see what it's like to date an older man, and soon deciding that she has gotten that idea "out of her system" and is not ready to move on to someone else. I don't want to be anyone's passing fancy.

366 opinions shared on Dating topic. A few years ago, when I was 62, I think, I met a young lady of 25.
We both openly admitted to feeling a very deep connection with each other.
We only were ever together in professional situations.
I'm married. She wasn't then, but is now.
I thought of her in many different ways, as the daughter I never had, as an incredibly intelligent, caring professional in her work, and yes, I was and still am immensely romantically attracted to her.
If I hadn't been married, I would have made a romantic overture.
I doubt that it could have ever been any more than a fling, but I do still think of her often with fondness.
I don't see anyone younger than 25 being capable of the same maturity level as she.
Anomalies do exist, though.

+1 yBro no, that would be weird as heck. I’m not over 35 or a man, but even when I’m 20, there is no way in hell that I’m dating a man in his late 20s, let alone 30s.

@TooHot2Care by the way instead of judging a young girl for her preferences, you can go about your day. you don’t have to be a dick. if you want to date barely legal girls, go ahead, but don’t expect people to not judge you for it. because I’ve got news for you bud, this world is filled with people who have different opinions. I don't know why you got so offended by the fact that I wouldn’t date men in their 30s 😂 . As though it’s any of your motherfucking business.

I was never making fun of anyone. I am allowed to have my own preference - and I prefer dating guys my own age. I’ve had crushes on older guys before, but it would definitely be weird as fuck to date any of them. Oh, and if you want to date younger women, go ahead, but don’t get mad if a girl rejects you because you’re older. It’s ok for people to have their preference. You’re not entitled to any shit.

+1 yNot over 35. I will see when I get there. Hopefully I’m married by then. But…. Anyways.
It depends on the guy. It really does. The same it depends on the 20 year old girl if she wants a guy that age, doesn’t want it, or is open to the idea00 Reply16.6K opinions shared on Dating topic. Yeah, I would date a 20 year old woman, but not one younger than that

+1 y21 so she can drink when we dine out. Even then it'd be a tough one to consider I have anything in common with her, but theoretically if she was super mature for her age, I'm far less worried about what it says on her DL. REALLY tough, but academically speaking, yes it's possible.
00 Reply 1.2K opinions shared on Dating topic. There's a girl started in my office at that age and she's pretty tasty. However, I think she has a boyfriend. So I would. Why would I moralise over that bullshit? If you get on, you get on. And that's usually little to do with age.
10 Reply13.2K opinions shared on Dating topic. I would have considered it when I was single but didn't look for it. She would have had to ask me. I wasn't hitting on young women because many find it creepy. Also I didn't want to start a new family so I wouldn't date a woman who wanted children.
00 ReplyI’m 25 and yeah I could date a man 10 years older if he is great. I could date a younger guy.
