6+ when it comes to older. 2 at MAX for younger. (At least until I age more... because that is ILLEGAL... being 18 kind of ruins the minimum you can go... although 16 is pushing it...)

I put 3 but I wouldn't go 3 years younger than myself but since I would go 3 years older that is what I put.

I wouldn't care, but I would say 5 years because I'd feel weird dating someone who's older than my older brother.

At my current age, it would be awkward (for me at least) to date somebody who is more than a year older or younger than me. But, when I'm 22 or so, I'd imagine that number would change.

At this stage of my life, only a year or two. The girl I'm interested in at the moment is two years younger than I am, and that's about the biggest gap I'd be comfortable with right now, in either direction. That'll most likely change later on.

Default Re: Age Difference

I'm tempted to declare a lower age limit owing to relatively recent events but honestly, ruling someone out based on age either younger or older has always seemed pretty silly to me. Although I guess if I were like 18 I would have a lower age limit.

I mean you can always set age limits and then someone will come along and pretty much screw yours up.

I would say that if i was to properly think about it then age would not be a concern. If you're meant to be together then so be it. Society has too much influence on how people act anyway, and i can't really be bothered trying to remain a norm. If for some reason age was affected by something like the law then you just wait until that no longer applies. There is no law saying you cannot like somebody older/younger, but acting on that is what can get you caught. I would just wait until there was no way either of us could get into trouble, and i wouldn't care about whether it's socially acceptable or not.

The youngest I would go would be 17, and even though, wouldn't do anything til they were legal o.o;

I don't think I have an older age limit... lol Age really isn't a concern except in the younger range when you're under 20 =P
