Was out drinking with some buddies last night, and there were a few obviously underage college girls at the bar. One of my friends starts going for the layup, and seriously, turns out those girls are college freshmen.

I thought it was kinda wierd, like we're finished with Uni already, seriously, how young is too young?

Age/2 + 7 is the cutoff.
Of course, you only live one life, and you make all your mistakes, and learn what not to do, and that’s the end of you.

I prefer my age and above but not too old, maybe like someone 2-3 years older would be the limit.

That'll change in a few years. That isn't my opinion, biological fact. Sorry, I just learned that in human bio and had a nerdgasm when I guessed your age correctly before looking at your profile.

Rofl, I'm 13 and with the Age/2 + 7 I can't date someone younger than me. Though I suppose I wouldn't, so its actually pretty accurate. But I can see how that would work well with late teens/twenties.

Too young is someone who is not close to your maturity.

Age/2 + 7 seems like pretty much always going to fail that test. 19, is 16 and a half. 30, is 22. 40 is 27... As if, buddy lol.

I'd say it's more important to be at the same stage of life, or at least the younger person is about to enter your stage of life, and you're not leaving it soon.

That is: Highschool, post secondary education, Job, real job, Family (as in, are interested in, or have had and perhaps lost), etc... As long as you feel like the person can relate to you, and is experiencing the same stresses in life you are... Otherwise you're going to feel retarded when your girlfriend is complaining about her grade 11 homework you could do in your head, or complaining about having to study for her midterms when you've got a full time job full of deadlines, or complaining about her job when you're so used to those problems, you wanna start thinking about settling down.

These are just things that doom a relationship in the first place...

But then, if you're just out for a quick fuck and nothing serious.... A relationship is not your issue. So I guess whatever you think a woman is capable of making her own intelligent decisions (ie, she isn't having sex with you to brag about how older guys like her, ie, she isn't in highschool).


Course... This is just random advice from someone who knows nothing

As far as I know, the age/2 + 7 rule comes from this:

If you have to ask shes too young dude. There isnt some crazy equation to it just look at her, unless she is one of those sluts that looks way older than she is and likes to fuck older dudes you should be able to pull it off.

the age/2 + 7 That works out pretty well ill say above jail bait ages 21/22+ else you get 20/2=10+7=JAIL

But i'd say socially in america.
If your below 12ish (7th grade) you really shouldn't be dating
12-14 you shouldn't be dating on a serious notation, and if so it should be with someone that is on your age. +1 you age if your dating a guy (woot double standard)
15 is more accepted to date more aggressively but still a +1 year limit.
16-17 +1 year limit and no longer much of a double standard, mostly if the guy is taller it's accepted =p
18-19 +2 years with a double standard with +1 for males
20-24 age group date block (includes 18-19 if you 20-21 perspectively) +-4 years on a given age without violating the ones that came before it
25-32 +-7 years
33+ 10 years?
12 years for a later age but it get kinda creepy after that

Not sure if this is coherent.
I have ass for brains so,
even when I shit I'm droping knowledge.

obviously the age/2 + 7 rule could be improved by adding in some higher order terms..

i.e. a new rule age^2/400 + age/2 + 7 could work quite well - at youngish ages (14-30) it can essentially reduce to age/2 + 7, but for people well above 30, it keeps their dating age range reasonable (until you get really old, but i'm sure you could add a cubic term to account for that... )

As you get older it matters less. People grow up a lot in their late teens and early twenties, so even a few years is a big difference until mid/late twenties IMO. My last gf was 3 years younger than me and I definitely felt the age gap.

u r beein` too strict. He just wanted to score with some girl. U don`t have to have the same hobbies for that ...so yeah age/2+7 seems reaaaaally accurate. Even if you are 40, a 27 year`old girl is cool :>

or just..
