I'm in a relationship with someone seven years older. I must now admt that it is too much. She is into early sixties and seventies genre and I am into later seventies and eighties. There is now a widening gap in our sex drive.
None of these are overwhelming.

My wife was the same age as me. We shared a lot of interests in movies, food, and music. I do wish that things hadn't gone do badly. Being sexually abused as a child by her brother she repressed it. It drove her mad and she left us for several years. There was no going back.

Kristin was four years younger but it was a good match. We knew a lot of the same people and her kids were a bit younger than my son. She unfortunately died at fourty nine of ovarian cancer.
Once everyone is of legal age it's officially none of my business.

Half your age +7 is the rule I always heard.
marsbarF
@Reject interesting

The French formula for men is half his age plus seven. If you鈥檙e 20, it鈥檚 17. If he鈥檚 30, it鈥檚 22. If he鈥檚 50, it鈥檚 32.

I think 45 can be with 55
But like 19 with 29 is kinda weird
So idk it depends

It depends - if he is 55 from the USA and she is 20 years younger from Australia; where their dollar is at 71 cents, then he might not want to date a woman that is broke all the time.

@MarmeeMarch word!

But there are some that actually don't care about it at all and are into it just for 馃悎 and $
MarmeeMarchM
@SirEgoDeathTheFirst Maybe - but money does talk eventually .....
LilymoonF
10 years max

I think the older you both are the less it matters.. However I have heard that more than 20 years can bring a generational void that becaomes too difficult to bridge.馃樂

8-12 yrs is a good difference, women mature faster than men, so with that age gap both parties concerned should be close to the same page

Think about if you want to be hauling a wheelchair at 50 and changing diapers for countless years and you鈥檒l have your answer.
I have more important things to worry about than what consenting adults do.

@canusernamebemyusername yeah? Like what?馃槀
marsbarF
I prefer younger than me....15 or so years
SirEgoDeathTheFirst26-30, M
@marsbar why so? Most women I met were into older men馃
marsbarF
@SirEgoDeathTheFirst I鈥檓 50. This past year, I dated younger men, mostly in their early to mid 30鈥檚.
PrivateHellM
That's for the couple to decide. All things being legal of course
Any age gap that is legal.

You forgot one "Age doesn't matter" if both are consenting adults why would it matter? Unless there's a 50 year age disparity maybe but even then.
