Does age really matter?
OK, here is the question that I pose to you. In dating does age really matter? (assuming all parties are of legal age). I recently went on a date with someone quite a bit younger than myself. And while the date was nice, I often wondered if there is some unwritten rule of “appropriate age differences”. I have heard a few myself, like the two hand rule. Which states that ten fingers = ten years. You can date someone ten years either way and be OK. I am sure there are more rules out there. Please feel free to shared them with our readers.

I used to think it didn’t, but I have since changed my mind. My former fiance was 12 years older than me, and the more that time went on, the more of a difference that made. His music sucked, he dressed like my grandpa, he didn’t have much stamina, and the erectile dysfunction just to name a few. I’m not diggin it!
I think in the future I will stick to men perhaps a few years older than me or up to 7 years younger. I’m good with that.

Well seven years seems like a good number. So 20 years younger just doesn’t cut it?

Do you what makes you happy as long as it isn’t hurting anyone else. The only thing I can say is that someone 20 years old isn’t going to have had the same life experiences as someone 30 or 40 years old. If that’s ok with you, why does it matter what anyone else thinks?
