Simple formula for these things. lower limit= half your age plus seven. Upper limit double your age plus seven.PureChaos said:
How much of an age gap is too much?

Meh if the spark of love is strong in the two i see no issue with any age gap. I know im going to get hatted on for saying this but what ever. I think the 2 year law is retarded I think once someone is 12 they know what they want hell people are different. I used to babysit for a 6 year old girl and she was 10X more mature then most of the 21 year olds i know so I think the whole thing is crap. As I like to say if it was fine with the founding fathers its fine with me...
I'm 27 and my wife is 39. We've been together for 5 years and married for 3 and doing great.
I've often thought about our age difference, but if I ended the relationship because of that it would be something I'd regret for the rest of my life, as I'm desperately happy with her.

Only problem is when you date older, and your parents date younger. I once dated a girl who was older than my step-mum (who's only 10 years older than I am). Was pretty awkward.
That older woman is a hard find: someone who is stunning looking (they have to be), commitment free, and likes younger men, but when you find one... damn. That's a good thing right there. My ex who I just spoke about was a redhead, perfect skin, great figure... damn it was good! Only problem was looking through her photos of her being smoking hot in night clubs the year I was born. That was an odd moment.
I normally date younger, but not significantly. I'm in my mid twenties, and my (different) ex girlfriend's little sister (who is stunning) was hitting on me the other day. She is 19. It was awkward, as I remember her when she was 11 years old.

Depends on the maturity. I'm okay with dating somebody that is between 15-18. Don't know why, but anything else feel kinds of weird. But I'm sure the range will expand as I grow older.
Wait... I've adopted the xkcd method subconsciously! I didn't even think of it when I came with those numbers.

how do you know you need to get away from the internet? When, at first glace, you thought the title of this thread was "How much of an anal gap is too much?"
I don't think it matters. My father is 10 years older than my mother and they are fine after 30 and something years of being together. I've seen worse marriages with less age difference.
Chauvinism at it's finest, ladies and gentlemen.Merkavar said:
I suppose it really doesn't matter when you're older.
Sometimes in high school it doesn't even matter, since freshman can be 13/14 and seniors can be 17/18.
It happens all of the time.
