Ages

[nightfall18]

What is the oldest women you've had a crush on/liked/dated? What is the youngest? How old are you?

Inspired by the recent revelation that I might have a crush on a 50-something and I'm 20-something. It's rather strange to me, because 50-something is my mom's age. The youngest I've liked is 19 and nothing happened with that.

I'm curious!

When I was married before (hetro marriage) I was 8 years younger. I was once engage to a guy 13 years older than me. My wife is 8 years younger than I am. When I was dating I looked at younger girls, but I wouldn't have taken anything seriously. I was mostly trying to stay with +/- 10-12 years

My oldest crush was the news reader Moira Stewart who's now 60 years old, but the oldest I've dated was my English professor who was 40 years old.

I've never liked/dated anyone more than a year younger than myself - mostly because for a long time I felt like a creep for liking anyone younger than myself, but ever since I hit 20 I stopped caring about that now lol.
I've recently turned 24 and I don't really have an interest in anyone at the moment.

The youngest girl I dated was 17. I was 27.

It was a huge mistake for a variety of reasons, age being one of them.

When I was 29, my girlfriend at the time was 46. Our age gap did become a problem, because we were at different points in our lives, but we had bigger problems than that.

Other than that, I haven't dated anyone more than about 8 years older/6 years younger. (Actually the 6 years younger was kind of problematic too - I was 26 at the time.)

Crushes, though, are a different story entirely! Now, in my mid 30s, I find myself attracted to people as young as early 20s and as old as 60s or maybe even older. But to me, crushes are more about appreciation. I appreciate many different types of people, but I wouldn't necessarily pursue all of them. I might date someone with a wider age gap, depending on the person. There are many points of compatibility; I think age is one thing that factors in, but it's not a simple formula.
