Men Over Thirty. When it comes to dating, what's your age cut-off? (feddit.uk)

So I've got a friend at work; just turned thirty. He's perhaps not the smartest tool in the shed, and whilst he does look thirty, I think if we were guessing his age by his level of maturity, we'd place him fairly squarely in the 18-22 age range.

Anyway, 30 has had this ongoing thing with this girl at work. She's 19. He sees nothing wrong with it, and whilst that may be true from a legal standpoint....most of us think it a bit ... untoward at best.

This post isn't about him though. It's about you. What's your age cut-off, both high and low for dating?

Enh, a lot of it depends on how they met, who initiated and how, and so many other things.

Like, I’m 40, I’m not looking for 27 year olds, but if I met a 27 year old woman that I got on really well with and she expressed interest first, why wouldn’t I go on a date with her?

Now if I were a creepy weirdo hitting on every 27-year-old that I see because the “fit the formula”, then that’s not ok.
