    When did we as a society give up on the "½ X +7" minimum dating age formula?

    Just FYI, this rule falls apart after a certain age (in the 60s or 70s).

    This reminder me for some reason of how my grandfather cheated on his wife a few years ago and had a heart attack during sex. He's like 80 or so.

    Exactly! Why the fuck would anyone want to date someone that much younger than them? I will never understand why so many men want to date girl so young.

    A friend of friend I’ve met a couple times is into me. They’re 23 and I’m 30 and I still don’t have an interest. They’re perfectly nice, but…

    I think after 28-30 it starts to really not matter that much but before that even smallish gaps can be pretty questionable. And any dude that would consider someone their age to be a “hag” probably largely dates younger because mature, experienced women can tell they’re really just garbage man-children.

    I'm 34 dating a 25 year old myself. Which I checked, it passes the "Half your age plus 7" test

    (34 / 2 = 17 + 7 = 24) Sometimes I still feel weird about it though

    @ 30 22 feels waaay too damn young. tf am I even gonna talk to this person about? I'm a decade in to a high stress high reliability industry. I'm starting to get Greg grey hairs! I make jokes about all the child rapists I met while working for the state! Too much happened in that 8 years between us. Too damn much.

    And now you understand why older men dating young girls is creepy, even if legal.

    They have nothing in common. There's no way. It's pure physical attraction above all else.

    Edit: Seemingly a lot of older people down voting this are in denial about how much they have in common with some 18 year old girl/guy as a romantic partner. You understand you're not fooling anyone, right? Not even other people like you. Underneath, you all know what you're about.

    Or both sides like to learn from each other and grow towards each other over time?

    There are worse reasons why an extreme age gap is seen as creepy, "not knowing each others interests" is not one of them.

    I'm 54 and most of the people I know are in their early 20s. We get along great and have plenty to talk about.

    Yeah, I’m in my mid 30’s and my best friend is nearing 50. His oldest child is the same age as my younger brother. Believe it or not, people can have common interests that aren’t entirely reliant on their age.

    Though I will say that age becomes less relevant as you get older… A 29 year old dating a 19 year old is pretty universally creepy, but few people would say the same about a 49 year old dating a 39 year old. Same age gap, but it’s assumed that the 39 year old has enough life experience to actually make their own decisions. Even in my mid-20’s, I was looking at 19 year olds as if they were literal children. There’s a lot of maturing that happens in the late teens and early 20’s.

    The brainrot is real, even with "old hags". My ex was 3 years younger than me, but she was an avid tiktok scroller. I was often being shown and taught about new "memes" that everyone promptly forgot about by the next week.

    My partner's sister is 19, I'm in my early 30s now. But I met my partner when she was 19, I often ask myself did she come across as this annoying to people in their 30s back then?

    I actually vibe more with the generations after me than my own; but I would find it creepy myself to be with someone who isn't relatively close to my own age.

    This is how I perceive the 28 year old to be.

    I once made the mistake of dating someone 12 years younger than me (she was 25). Man, what a mistake, nevermind the cultural differences, her emotional maturity was....intolerable, and this from a person I'd considered a friend for a year already. It was the first and last time iv ever done that.

    OP is still on 4chan. Lingo aside I'd say he's in his maturity range.
