What's the highest & lowest age a 22/23 yo can date without it being weird?

i asked the 19 yo question lol... was just asking cause i lowkey have crush on a girl that age at uni (though she's 20 soon)..

anyways that made me kinda curious as to what people think is the oldest & youngest age you can date at my age without it being weird. I thought personally that 19 1/2-20 is the lowest acceptable & the highest maybe 26? so like about 3 years either way. to me if its in about the three year range it's all good if its legal

Aight bro, here's what I think on the age thing without it being weird:

Lowest - I'd say like 20 is probably fine. 19 is pushing it just because they're still teenagers developmentally even if legal. 20 is at least out of high school most times.

Oldest - I'd say 25-26 max. Once you start getting past that 3 year mark it could be weird cause you're in such different stages of life. 25/26 year olds are usually established more in careers, moving out of party phase.

With your crush at uni who's turning 20 - I'd say that's totally fine, man! Only a few months difference really. As long as you're respectful and not taking advantage of age/experience, date who you vibe with.

Some key things are being in a similar life stage, being able to relate to each other as equals, and making sure it's not some power imbalance thing. At your age as long as it's like 2-3 years gap either way, should be no problem socially. Go for it with that girl if you like her!

lowest is obviously whatever legal age in your place i think 21? highest for a 22 year old is considered weird if 27 and older.
