older people may be more mature but also could have more expectations (sex especially)

Agreed. Range from 3 years older to 2 years younger than yourself, but minimum age 17

i think dating someone anything more than a day older/younger is just fuckin wrong.

Girls go for older guys cos girls mature faster than guys, so if they get an older guy they're generally on the same maturity level.

I've never dated a guy my age/younger... I always go for 2 years older..

I read that guys are generally three years less mature than girls. So a guy who is 18 has the maturity of a 15 year old girl.
Oh that sounds terrible, sorry boys! i'm sure thats not actually true for everyone!
Personally, i prefer guys who are about 2 years older. But in the end, age is just a number!

I think age makes a huge difference.
Too big an age gap and you have people entering into a relationship with different expectations (generally). This will often force the younger one to mature too quickly, or influence a poor attitude towards dating people the same age as themselves, or of similar age.

I think if you are anywhere from 19 down, dating someone anymore than a year older than you, or younger than you, is generally bad taste.

I have always personally been attracted to girls a year or two older than me.

The last few girls I have done anything serious with have been at least a year older than me.

Probably because I am mature beyond my years.

my boyfriend is like you. I'm the 3rd girl he's dated who has been older than him. My brother is the same as well. Both boys said that they could never date a girl their age or younger than them because they are more mature than most guys their age.

To answer the thread starter's question:
As long as BOTH parties are over the age of consent then age does not matter. But at the same time someone who is dating someone 7 + years older than them is a little scary, but love knows no limitations, I guess.

I wouldn't touch a girl under 16 for legal reasons and I wouldn't go out with a girl that was older than me just cause I think it would be weird.
