Ok I thought this would be kinda interesting to discuss Being 20 yrs old and a guy, i have my preferences on how old I'd like a girlfriend to be okay. So here is how it is for me and i'd be interested in knowing your age, gender, and what age range would you go for someone, or if age doesn't matter at all. 16 - Okay, a girl with this age has to be really extraordinary, and i mean really. In my state if i'm not mistaken this is the lowest legal age if the other person is 18 or over. 17 - pretty young but i'd make exceptions 18-20 ya for sure 21-23 - ya for sure 24-32 - ya i wish 33-36 (Milfs) - ya i really wish Oh ya and besides that there are other specifications, as i, through bad experiences, improvise throughout present. First of all, if she's in 12 step programs like aa/na, she's gotta take an s.t.d test. I don't care about a drug test because if she does drugs and we fuck i'm not gonna get diseases that way and not to mention that's her business. I'm sorry if it sounds judgemental for a person in 12step programs, but i gotta be on the safe side.
Ok, I have to ask what attracts you to the older women? It is crazy how most older men like younger women, and most younger men like older women. What is up with that?
im 16 and dating a 20 yr old. i guess that makes me extraordinary. and i also wonder.. what attracts you to the older women? isnt it interesting young men want the older women, and then when they get older, they all want to be the old man with the hot young blonde on their arm!? kinda silly
To me, age does NOT matter as long as the feelings are mutual between my partner and I. As an anti-ageist, I believe that should also be a universal ideal, though, I also understand that is somewhat difficult to achieve in this world. I am currently "kind of" involved with someone half my age, and I'm totally honoured to be in this relationship. To me, she is a perfect example of how age should not determine the "acceptability" of a relationship. What upsets us is how society all too often makes such age gap to be malicious, but we do our best to overcome such negativity by acknowledging our mutual longing/love and respect. We often talk about the age issue in our society, and we both believe society is preventing its people from truly fullfilling their lives by wrongfully criminalizing/victimazing them. When two people are truly attracted to each other and their personalities click, age should not get in the way of their path. At all.
Okay, being an anti-ageist is cool, as long as you're not a pedophile. There's a difference between dating someone half your age when you're 35 or older, and dating someone half your age when you're in your 20's. There's enough Jerry Lee Lewis's in the world.
word... in another thread about age-ranges, someone mentioned in the same paragraph that he was a grandfather, and that his ideal range had always been around 11-15 (I forget the precise numbers, but it was under 16). my stomach literally turned at that, I felt so nauseaus reading it. No, I don't think that person would ever pursue a girl that young, but.... ugh, I still get sick thinking about it
In dating, I think anything beyond 3 years age difference is okay as long as, WELL-BEFOREHAND, the issues of the age difference are discussed openly and honestly. I have a 16 year old female friend who just got dumped by a 20 year old asshole because he just wanted sex with her even though he knew beforehand the age difference would never work between them but since he wanted sex he just kept leading her on 'til he got it 5 times; this, when she was feeling extremely vulnerable because not 2 months prior she had lost her virginity through date rape. So there you go.
My 10 year age gap hasnt really been a gap at all. Obviously 10 years which go upwards towards him, and not downwards
Why does every thread about relationships dealing with age always turn into a fucking pedophilia discussion? Consider this...My Dad was 22 and my Mom was 16 when they got married. Was my dad a pedophile? If you told him that, he'd laugh his ass off at you...right after he kicked you in the balls or **** and beat you half to death. People mature at different ages, no two are the same. So...one 16 year old may be ready for a relationship with an older person, some would not. People here are a bit paranoid. Lighten up folks, it's just life.
I don't think age should matter, providing both parties are of a consentual age! If people are emotionally attracted to each other as well as physically, why should age be such a big deal?
Right on. It shouldn't matter. It gets tricky in the teen years because there are some that are mature and can handle a more mature relationship while others have not grown up yet. I think setting an age by law it done to protect the ones that aren't ready yet. Thing is there are a lot of people over age 20 that aren't capable of a mature relationship either, so... blah...
My current BF turns 21 this summer. I'm only 17. I only date older guys because guys my age just don't get it. I know that sounds really stupid, but its the truth. I don't understand the guys my own age.
Im 16 and age dont matter to me. I find most guys younger than me are a little immature though, so I usually go for the older ones. I would, however, draw the line at around 25/26 area cuz thats when eyebrows would start to raise methinks. But when Im 18 and legal and all that bullshit, I really wont care how old my boyfriend/girlfriend is.. damn those silly laws
I preferably like guys to be about 10 years older than me but i have a soft spot for younger girls. oh am i greedy or what.
As a 45 year old guy with a 25 year old fiancee I guess Im the typical older guy going for a younger woman, and to be honest yes I do prefer younger women and my fiancee does prefer older men. Seems kind of natrual. But also I dont have a problem with having sex with women older than me in things like threesomes/groups ect.
I've had a few relationships with older women. Like on the scale of 10 years. The sex was incredible because we were both at our sexual primes. But when that wears off and you find you have little in common with the other person, the relationship goes downhill and its time to move on. I'm in my 30s now and older women still turn my head as well as some that are a few months younger than me . But I don't hold many expectations for the long-term.
