24ish but even that's getting a bit young imo. there is a big gap in maturity from early to late 20s in my experience

18-23 (without expectations of a reltationship beyond sleeping together)
23-27 (basically molding a relation ship with steadier personal beliefs on each side)
27-30 ( I call this the if you have things in common you're gonna do great area.)

100% this.

I feel 20... until I have to hang out with people in their early - mid 20s! Ugh =P

i'm currently 28 and i think the youngest i'd date is like 24. perhaps a year or two younger if they were already very mature in term sof life progression. (graduated or have a job, ready to be seroius about life, etc).

I'm 32... wouldnt date under the age of 25 personally... People dont really mature until mid/late 20's.

As far as hooking up id go as low as 18

You know what they say, age is just a number.

In theory, I would fall in love with guys of just about any age (as long as he's an adult) but in practice, I find that men in their late 30s up to 45 or so is the golden range for me. I am in my early 40s.

I won't care about what other people think about my relationship with a younger man, but the reality is that younger guys (I would say below 30 or so) typically do not think about settling down or even dating seriously. I don't have time for that. Literally.

(Age / 2) + 7 = universal cutoff

I don’t put arbitrary numbers on things. I also don’t really care about people’s morals or opinions, I only follow laws. I’ll date anyone that I vibe with from 18-99. Most of the time they’re near my age but I’ve had flings with 18 year olds even like last year when I was 35. I also have an ex who’s older than I am. I don’t make up my own rules and laws, I follow federal and state guidelines and live my life. Since I like being single, usually younger guys are more interested because they don’t wanna settle down either, no one gets feelings hurt.

The only people who say this are either creepy old dudes who are emotionally immature or young girls with daddy issues.

in todays world the younger might be worse. I wouldnt want a 18 year old that i would have to provide for and guide through life. they are still learning. im 32 and 25-26 is where i would cut the line.
