How much age difference is too much for you? I’m at the age where I’m matching with people in their 20s and people in their 50s so I’m having trouble with the age thing.

My grandma was 10 years older than my grandpa
I think as long as you’re ok with it and you like the other person, that’s the main thing that matters, not so much the age

I agree with @unicornrose … Unless you’re male and want kids then keep it between 18-35 at 35+ you start having problems convincing and run higher risk with birth defects

I thing age matters when you’re under 25 more so, but I just matched with a 23 year old and we have a lot in common. I feel old lol

Dating someone the same age or younger than my daughter would be creepy AF for me.

I’m five years older than my husband (I’m in my early 50s).
That doesn’t faze me.
I’m asexual anyway, but i probably wouldn’t date lower than 12 years younger or older than about five years, since mortality becomes an issue.
Plus I’m childless by choice and hooking up with an older man would likely involve step kids.
As long as you’re both comfortable with it, as has been said, you’re both over 18.
If you work in the same Starbucks, be extremely careful though. I’ve never seen a workplace romance that didn’t end with one person changing jobs if the relationship ended.

No I have never met them, so I doubt they work here. I’ve met all the employees here
Same with me I would be creaped out with any girl who was my daughters age or younger.
My Dad married my step Mom who is younger than my sister lol also they had a kid
I stopped dating in my mid to late twenties when sza started creeping in. I missed so many steps in the last 15 years that at this point I’m looking at a field of divorcees with lots and lots of kids. I never dated in high school and got about 5 years of dating in when I was young, so I guess that’ll have to hold me lol.
I just can’t imagine dating someone at that different a point in life and acting like there was no difference
On the other hand I don’t expect to or even necessarily want to date some super young person, the younger generation bugs me out so I’d have to shoot 30 or older to feel safe anyway.
I don’t do dating at all anymore, but I don’t judge other for dating younger or older than themselves. I think its all fine as long as you are both adults. People that get all bent out of shape over others dating someone of a different age range seem judgey to me.,
And I think it often comes from a place of jealousy or resentment.
If you feel weird doing it yourself, thats fine. But I dont think you should judge other adults based on this.
Edit: I can also see it from a parents perspective. If your 20 year old is dating a 50 year old, I can see the protective nature of that attitude. But a random person, no.
Edit 2: Way I look at it its none of my business if a 25 year old is dating a 45 year old.
I say people should date who they want.
That said, it’s probably not wise to venture too far from your peers.
Someone considerably older/younger is going to be at a different stage and less/more mature.
Even worse,
They won’t understand your pop culture references.
One of my closest friends has been dating a younger guy for a few years.
She wants to get married before she’s 40,
He’s not in a hurry because he’s in his 20s.
Almost all their arguments come to the fact that they are at waaay different places in life.
Have fun and date whoever,
Just be careful.
