What are these numbers
The common wisdom (at least in the US college I attended) for the youngest acceptable age gap for a person is to halve their age then add 7 years. So for a 24 year old, 19 is as young as their partner can acceptably be in a relationship.
Common wisdom my ass. Its stupid is what it is. Relationships are always more complex than a math formula with one variable...
edit: sry for the crashout. I just really dont vibe with that type of oversimplification, but that doesn't have anything to do with you. My bad.
I haven't personally heard this math, and I think it's ick and prudish personally. But you're taking a risk getting into a relationship with someone under 25. She FAFO lol
Ehhhhhhh
It’s certainly not the first thing I think of when I meet a couple, but now you know.
I couldn't possibly imagine a relationship with a 26-year-old.
Well, it's the minimum socially acceptable age.
A 38 year old dating a 26 year old? I don't think there's anything socially unacceptable about that.
25 though? Well I should just call Chris Hansen right now.
