Dating age differences
What would you say is the cutoff for acceptable age differences in relationships?
Is any age difference acceptable? What about when one person is a minor. like one is 17 the other is 19? What if its a Heffner ordeal where its 23-80? opinions please thanks |

The general rule is 0.5a+7 if 'a' is your own age

Once you reach a certain age, it really doesn't matter as long as it's reasonable. For example, my aunt and uncle are ten years apart and nobody questions it. Would it be disgusting if he was 20 and she was 10? Yes, obviously, but the fact that he's 50 and she's 40 isn't really a big deal.
When you're under 25-30, I'd say the good ol' two-year rule is a good one to follow.

For me, it would almost always depend on the difference in years between the two individuals. If 17 and 19, I think that's okay, assuming that they're both relatively mature. One of my friends was 13 and ended up in an 18 month relationship with a 18 year old. She's mature, and as far as I'm aware has always been. Although I think it's ****ing weird on the guys part, I tend to think that if there's a genuine attraction/caring, then it's okay.

^ 13 and 18 is pretty damn creepy if you ask me.
One of my friends is 20, only a few weeks younger than me, and her boyfriend is 28. Would that be weird? I sure as hell think so. I tend to use the 0.5x + 7 rule as a guideline because there is a cut off for that too. Last edited by Extra Ordinary : 02-12-2013 at 12:44 AM. |

Basically what you do is divide your age by two and then add seven and that's the age you can socially acceptably date! It's a super obscure rule and not very many people know it, so I wanted to make sure that people knew about it.

I am 23 and my fiancee is 28. Age never really bothered me, grantered ive never been with a younger girl. Once you get past the drinking age (21over in america) it doesnt really go into play.

I'm 19. 2.5a+7 would be roughly 17. It's possible I would consider 16, but it would have to be an extreme exception. As for above, if you solve the formula the opposite way, you would get 24. This direction is more of a gray area for me. My sister's 27, so I feel like I can relate well to people her age, I just don't know if any 27 year olds would have any interest in a 19 year old.

over 18 for sure. Pedophilia is bad. Also, not more than a couple of years older than me. I'm 21 and I would prefer not to date someone significantly older than me.
