My comfort zone is plus/minus 5 years (I am 23). So atm, I fit snuggly in the 18-28 range. I would rather be with someone 1-2 years apart, ideally. It just makes more sense to be with someone who has a similar amount of time on this earth.
Honestly, I probably couldn't date someone who was under 20 right now though. It would feel like dating someones kid, rather than dating another adult. Like, they just got out of high school.
I find that when you get to 10+ years difference, it is super strange. At one time, that person was 20, while you were ten or less. Then imagine ahead and they might have had 2 divorces, 3 failed businesses, and 3 kids, but you are just coming out of a 4 year university program. It would be like dating a friend of your parents.
