What is the youngest age of a person you would date?

[EnglishArtsteacher]

I'm a straight man, and the absolute youngest age of a woman I would date is 21 years old, but I would want her out of a traditional college student environment, and more into a young career environment. Realistically, the youngest woman I could see myself dating is 25 years old.

I didn't include 70 years old (and older) in my poll. If people 70 years old, and older are too young to date, then you're too old for dating, or you need to seek therapy.

Under 18 years old (if you click on this option, and you're not under 18 years old, seek therapy immediately).

18 years old

21 years old

29 years old

39 years old

49 years old

59-69 years old

Age is only a rough measure of how much I might have in common with a lady but, as their age gets younger, the less likely it is that we will have enough common ground to make a good effort at a relationship (and, of course, the less likely that she will be physically attracted to me.)

In reality - not fantasy - I don't expect any woman younger than 55 to take notice of me, and for most women, I think 60 would be the minimum age where a relationship might be viable.

Thanks for your insight.

I don't really have a hard limit. It's just an issue of mutual physical attraction, sexual compatibility, and no glaring personality conflicts. I have found that girls under 35 or so tend to have personality elements I am too old for, though. But again that isn't a hard limit. Surely girls as young as 18 are mentally capable of not having those elements but the circumstances that would lead to such an "old soul" in a young person seem like they would necissarily include some sort of apocalypse, in which case my appetite for romance would probably be permanently blocked.

I just turned 23 so for me the absolute absolute lowest i could ever go would be maybe 19 (more 19 1/2), but that's not ideal or anything. 18 is too young at this point. like 5 years is too much, they often look like babies and often they're immature as fuck. More realistically i think maybe 20 1/2- 21. That's not weird and more doable, like its just 2.5-2 years younger than me. Though my ideal range is more 22-23.

[EnglishArtsteacher]

Even most 23 year old males are super immature, and act like they're 16 years old lol.

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

I am a bit tired of young men. Already had one and enjoyed him at a wonderful age of 23-27. Now got to find out other age groups.

[EnglishArtsteacher]

Most young men in their 20s aren't very bright. They still act like they're 16 years old.

[Avicenna]

20 would be the absolute youngest woman I'd date

[DarkWinterNights]

Probably 22-23. I’m 33 now and even 10 years is starting to get weird. Problem is finding a girl closer to my age who isn’t either bitter or just going to “settle” for me or want me to bail her out of her previous relationship. Been there, done that and it more or less ruined dating for me.

[aceleon]

i'm 21

i would have no qualms with 16 or so year old girls, i don't give a damn about her being underage but i can't be bothered with law and such thing.

[EnglishArtsteacher]

Wow, really? By the time I was 21 years old, I already knew there was no way I could date any girl under 18 years old (and 16 is the Age of Consent of where I lived at the time).

[aceleon]

when i hit 25 she would be 20 prime ages for man and woman, and when i hit my 30 she would be 25 considered ideal age of marriage for man and woman.
also for me age of consent being 18 was always a bullshit people tends to stay childishuntil their 25 or so, so calling a 18 year old an adult was always pointless to me.

[EnglishArtsteacher]

There is a big difference between 16, and 18 years old, let alone 16, and 24 years old.

[jimmy2]

I was going to say I not dead yet and I do not need Therapy to
All I got to do is find a few lovely hot beautiful 18 to 20 who loves old Men
Do you know know why
Old men are more faithful to them
You got her in bed why bitch about it
We also know how to love women
That 2 big plus to you all young trying to figer things outlet it make sence lol

[ColHathi]

It's kind of a weird poll though. My vote is going to change depending on my own age. I want to date someone who's on my own mental/maturity level. The age doesn't actually matter to me.

[EnglishArtsteacher]

Of course your vote is going to change depending on your own age, but since you're 35 years old right now, and this question was asked in the last week, why is that weird?

I

[JacobJordan]

Probably a few years older than me. I don't like most people my own age let alone those younger

[DaisyM23]

i'm 20 right now so i'd stick with my age or older, maybe 19 if they're the same year but not anything younger

[andreasderjuengere]

Where's the option for 46?

I couldn't ''vote''.

The reason for my ''choice'' is 'the Missus' :)

[IslaTheWitch]

Probably not younger than 40. But it depends on many factors. For sure not younger than 30.

[DJB72]

I'm 51 now. If I were single again I'd look at 30 . I'm not exactly what you'd call well aged

[Anonymous]

I'm 26 and given I date my own age or older exclusively I'll say 29

[syncheart]

I pick 29, but it really doesn't matter because I really can't be a chooser. I have no control who is in my life what so ever.

[LiamJHayden]

21 minimum, but I've never dated a lady more than a few months younger than I am and generally prefer older women.

[mandyfire98]

Anything above 24 really.

[Apple1996]

Probably wouldn't go lower then 21

[Potteplante]

I'd not go below 30

[Dinklex3]

I picked 29, but it’s really 28.

[EnglishArtsteacher]

I tried to vary my ages as much as possible.

[Dinklex3]

That’s fine, that’s why I just picked the closest 💁‍♀️

[Thestupidusername]

"59-69 years old"

[EnglishArtsteacher]

Are you being serious, or are you joking?

[Thestupidusername]

Joking lol

[EnglishArtsteacher]

I had to ask, because I can't tell anymore.

There is a 22-23 year old woman on TikTok who makes videos with her boyfriend who's in his late 50s.

[Thestupidusername]

🤢🤢 urgh

[EnglishArtsteacher]

I just looked her up. Her name is Nicole Downs, and she's now 23 years old, and her boyfriend is 56 years old. She openly admits it's because he's rich.

[Thestupidusername]

Yeah that makes sense. At least he knows then

[wiltingrosepetal]

um.. I can't legally date younger..

[Anonymous]

18 if they are mature.
