I couldn't care less about the legal age of consent, my personal opinion is that 25 is far too old for any 16 year old - male or female.  I don't think that you should date anyone more than 2 years older than you from the age of 16 - 19. anything before 16 should stay in the same age group.

If my 16 year old daughter OR son went out with a 25 year old #h*t would hit the fan and heads would roll!!!

The older a person gets, it becomes less of an issue.  I wouldn't be thrilled if my 21 y.o. dated a 30 y.o., but I'd learn to live it, maybe. []

Personally, if I weren't married, 10 years older and maybe 5 years younger would probably be my limit.

I always love your posts Carolyn, I completely agree with you, but 10 years older, then you would be 10 years younger than them. Surely it should go both ways?

Hi Jolly - What a nice thing to say, I've enjoyed your posts as well.  Forgive me for not responding, sometimes I'm just not very talkative.  

It doesn't go both ways for me.  I wouldn't have a problem dating someone 10 years older and probably would consider 15 years or more, but I couldn't see myself dating someone that much younger.  Truthfully 5 years younger than me is probably too much.  I know it's all mental, but I would feel like their mom. Yes, if I were single I would be more inclined to date/marry someone older, but ideally we would be within a few years of each other.

I am married to a younger man.......4 months younger. []

Thank you to, I was thinking along the lines of when your in your 30´s or older 10 years either way is ok. I think 21 year old with a 30 year old for me is just inside the line of exceptable, only just! but then I kinda feel bad saying that, I know someone reading this will be outside it and not like the comment but then as some of the others suggested if you really love each other does it matter.

but that said it is I think, generally better to be with someone around your own age, but young guys have a problem here, because most of the girls there age, are off with boys/men a lot older! Actually I have found older women far more atractive than younger ones not always, I nearly got with a girl 13 years older than me recently.
Not sure why, its a combination of experience and more interesting conversation I think(not to say I dont love spending allday talking about snoop dog [] that ofcourse depends on the girl)- Another-some was talking about that before I think.

Aparently, I read in the paper that young chimps also like older females! and actually thinking about it most boys in school fancy a teacher at some point as the girls do to.

Sod it, in the end if your serious and you really love each other, does it matter?
