If you've been on the dating scene for a while, you've likely heard about the classic calculation that advises you, based on your current age, how much younger you can date. Relationships with large age gaps are often a point of contention in society, and this rule attempts to solidify specific parameters for daters depending on their age, in accordance with societal norms. According to the rule, you divide your age by two and then add seven to calculate the "socially acceptable" minimum age for a partner. Keep reading to find out why the rule is actually useful, and for more on creating healthy partnerships, If You're Not Doing This, Your Relationship Won't Last, Study Says.

For example, if you're 32, you can date someone as young as 23 while remaining in the realm of "socially acceptable," according to the calculation. Conversely, to find your ceiling for dating, you would subtract seven from your age and then double it. So, per the rule, a 32-year-old could date a 50-year-old. While this rule has been widely cited, many experts suggest it's used as helpful guidance rather than anything concrete.

The rule helps "keep you within an age range that will ensure more common interests with your partner, and also likely allow for better communication," says relationship expert David Bennett. "However, if you meet someone outside of the rule that makes you happy, then I say don't turn down someone you have a good connection with over a rule."

Dating and relationship expert Carol Roderick, PhD, says she doesn't advise clients to follow the rule to a T, but she does "encourage them to think carefully about their upper and lower age limits, especially on online dating sites and apps." She feels that adhering to the confines of the rule is less necessary when meeting someone in person, because "you are usually able to assess someone's maturity, vitality, and dating intentions at roughly the same time you are discovering their age—filtering them in or out."....."

At 20 you want a 40 year old woman, at 40 you want a 20 year old woman, it changes as you get older.

I have dated even 49 year olds when I was in my late 20's and age was never the issue in the relationship

what about the sex

[HeidiHoe]

What's the definition of dating? If it's a hookup I have no issue going young. As long as he keeps the conversation superficial, limited and leaves once I'm done with him. If I'm looking for a friendship to go along with the sex I prefer someone close to my age or older.
