83 year age difference, the over under rule

Guinness says the biggest age gap in a marriage is 83 years!

Made me think, what's everyone's over under rule when dating?

Whats the biggest age gap you've ever had and at your current age how far under over will you go?

I dated a 15 year old while i was 17, and a 51 year old when i was 22. Once i turned 18 i wouldnt go under. When i hit 20 and above as long as they were 18 i was cool with it.
I married by 25 so i unfortunately never got to reach dirty old man status.
My rule though was old enough to vote/never too old.

If I wasn't married (or if I was another type of guy)...

- I don't think I could date someone young enough to be my daughter. Being on the other side of 40 though, I find that women in their 40s are the best blend of youth and experience.
- When I was younger, I did have a fling with a woman 10 yrs my senior. She was also married (separated), and she was also the smallest woman I ever dated, @ 4'10.

So your under'd be say you at 40, no younger than 22. Thats cool.

Also, 4 foot 10? Thats like a Pokemon!

Depends on the Pokemon 💃

I'm married so the question is moot. I always had very little patience with people much younger than me, so I guess the limit would be around 5-8 years younger.

Crossing my fingers so I never have to date people again, that phase of my life was annoying 😕

Yeah, dating was a drag back in the day! ✅

5-8 years is a big gap for having no patience. Thats pretty good, really!

If not a Pokemon how about a Smurf? 3 apples high...😛

Also, "pokemon"? I had another term, far less...genteel. Rhymes with sockheath.

Over 18 and under 31.
That's my ideal over under rule.

Would never date anyone below US legal age or above 50.

Problem with some women is they never reveal their real age.

My friend has a rule.

Half your age, plus five. Anything from there upwards is ok

Scoob is close, but there's actually a formula out there that's become the unofficial guidestick: Age/2 + 7.

Obviously things like maturity and compatibility are more important than age, and there's nothing inherently unethical with a huge age gap. But what we're talking about here is societal acceptance, not morality. Anything outside of Age/2+7, and you can expect some "robbing the cradle" jokes or sideways glances from the more conservative.

A friend of mine is 22 years old, her boyfriend is 62.

Yeah, we all think it's a little weird... He's divorced and his kids are all more than ten years older than his girlfriend

WOW that's a huge gap. I wonder how his kids feel about your friend.

You did that so your junk would look huge in her tiny hands.

^ Thought you already look like that. 😉

I'm a big believer in dating within the same generation. So two to three years.
