    When I was 16, I dated a 27 year old. But after we dated for almost 2 years and broke up, I realized all guys are immature no matter how much older they are....... Lol no I'm just kidding, but he did NOT act his age at all. And I really don't have an age preference. I've dated older, the same age, and even someone a year younger once. If we like each other, we like each other. That's all.

    I would accept a 6 year age difference but any older I'd feel weird, being 21 having a 31 year old boyfriend wouldn't work for me but maybe if we were on the same level in terms of maturity or if we met halfway I'd probably go for it. However a person of my age has different priorities as compared to someone older, that issue will not be a problem at first but later on it will be.

    It really just depends on the person, though I dunno how I'd feel about dating someone MUCH much older than me seriously... if they were gonna die like, 20 years before me, that might be a bit too sad. :/

    He was nine years older. I don't know that I'd feel comfortable with more than ten years, but age is not necessarily a primary factor for me.

    I can't really say; I guess not over 15 years. I use to think not over 5 years but I've run into a few guys a long the way that I've liked above that. The oldest that I've liked was... well I should say I still do like, he is about 15 years older than me. But I still would like to date someone maybe 2-4 years older than me.

  • In my view the woman should always be younger.

    And the man should be no more than ten years older.

    But I am pretty old school in alot of ways.

    I usually go for people who are in their 30's or 40's. So, its a couple of decades difference.

    My husband is currently 7 years older, which is funny because my sister is 7 years younger than me haha. Our mentality difference is pretty minute.

    I would go up to 10 years, though. Anything beyond that would probably be odd due to the fact that I am 21 and not exactly THAT much more mature for my age. Other than the typical youthful zeal and ambition that is usually common for my age group, I don't think I'd have much to offer, maturity and experience-wise, to someone over 10-15 years older than me.

    10 years older. Yes, 10. I don't know if I would date a girl 10 years younger though. Ask me in 10 years, HA!

    No but I have dated younger. The cut off it 2 years if I am going up. 1 if I am going down.

    I don't have an age limit. If I'm attracted to the person, it doesn't matter how old he is. Heck, one of my biggest celebrity crushes is almost old enough to be my grandad.

    10 years would be okay for me.

    No idea. I'd estimate that 10 years would be a little too much for me (different worlds generally) but it'd really be down to the girl.
