Do you want to be with someone who is older, younger, or the same age as you?

I used to follow what I called the 2 year rule: Date women who are no more than 2 years younger or 2 years older than me. Now, I believe I am fairly liberal with accepting age, as long as it's not too far of a stretch.

At my age (72), I consider anyone my peer who can tell me where they were, what they were wearing, and what they did when they found out that JFK had been shot.

If the man is very handsome or interesting, maybe I'd consider the RFK assassination adequate.

@greenmountaingal: Fair enough. JFK has been gone longer than I have been alive. Which is very sad.

@jfinn298: Everyone my age remembers the shock of the presidential assassination. Everyone my age remembers where he or she was when JFK died-- except for Richard Nixon and George Bush senior who have both stated they don't remember where they were. (Public records accessed by journalists say they were both in Dallas that day). That was a whole decade of assassinations in the US.

@greenmountaingal: My parents have mentioned that to me once or twice.

As young as 18 and as old as 90, i'm down
jfinn298 · 26-30, M
@GBPackersFan: As long as they're legal and alive, in essence?
Younger. As I am young at heart.
jfinn298 · 26-30, M
@Elandra77: That's good, gotta stay young in some ways.

Invisible · 26-30, M
I don't really care tbh
jfinn298 · 26-30, M
@Invisible: That's whats up man. I think they all have an appeal about them. As long as it feels right.
jfinn298 · 26-30, M
@samanthabelle: Any limits on how much older? Or doesn't matter?
samanthabelle · 22-25, F

jfinn298 · 26-30, M

Typically younger. I'm thinking I need to change that though
jfinn298 · 26-30, M
@dumpstermeow: Ok, I can understand looking elsewhere, but also don't give up on the young ones completely, you never know who may surprise you.
dumpstermeow · 41-45, F
@jfinn298: that's very true
jfinn298 · 26-30, M
@dumpstermeow: Sometimes it's good to just leave that door open, never close it completely.

2 years is nothing, and you should drop that rule when you're older.
jfinn298 · 26-30, M
@Peekaboo: I already have dropped that rule in all honesty, I am picky over personality exclusively.
TestingLimitations · 31-35, M
Older, for sure.
jfinn298 · 26-30, M
@Gurekitsune: They definitely know what they're doing, they've seen the world, as long as they aren't too bitter about it, all is good.
I would say my age or older is most likely to be able to relate to my life experiences. But I've made a few exceptions.
