    What's the biggest age gap you would date?

    I'm seeing someone now that is 10 years older. It's going great.

    I'd probably go down to 23 and up to 60.


    29 BTW.

    I’m 30 in a few months time.

    18 to 30 for me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,705 ✭✭✭The Inbetween is mine


    I have dated someone less than half my age.
    It didn't last long... just like me :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 424 ✭✭Cerveza


    Once they be up for a shot of rod every night I’ll take the oldest in the nursing home.

    But what if old Dave isn't up for having his back passage excavated by you?

    I'm 33. I'd be okay with about ten years older. I wouldn't say no to someone younger but usually I prefer people my own age or older.

    If I'm attracted to them, then age doesn't matter... once they're legal age obviously.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,252 ✭✭✭FTA69

    17 if she’s mature.

    Nonce chat that is.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,158 ✭✭✭frag420


    Half my age plus nine...


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,402 ✭✭✭McGinniesta


    Once it's all legal and above board.

    The age of consent is 17

    I’d view a 30 year old (male/female) dating a 17 year old as a predator.

    Some greasy posters on here tonight



    +/- 5 years from my own age.

    29 year old lad dating a 17 yo leaving cert student not far from here and that's exactly how he is viewed.


  • Registered Users Posts: 152 ✭✭fear corcaigh


    40's here, I'd swing 10 years or so either way.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,943 ✭✭✭YellowLead


    I’m 36 and I’d date 35 to 52.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Few years ago, a girl i knew well
    , while in 'mid years' secondary school, was dating a 2nd year college student.

    This is a bit greasy I raved, college chaps should be banging college girls, not sufficient around the locsl secondary school, to be dismissed as a crank.

    Sure enough, a year or two after they broke up, he was done for kiddie porn, thankfully not involving the girl I know.

    Stick to your own age band, its just less weird

    My husband and I discussed this a few weeks ago. The traditional view is very misogynistic: it’s considered alright, in the media, if some greasy middle aged man is creeping on younger women. Especially so if his wife is portrayed as some shrew or, forgive me for using a disgusting term, a “Karen” shrilly henpecking him in rollers while waving a rolling pin.

    Alternatively if a woman is involved with a younger man she is accused of being some demented sex pervert à la Samantha in SATC, “mutton dressed as lamb” or a cougar (there is no equivalent term for a man). Ephebophilia is excusable if the elder of the couple involved is a male.

    I may have strayed in the past with younger men but that was a long time ago, we have had marriage counselling and we need to move on. I warned my husband that if he ever considered leaving me for a young one that I would ride him so hard in the courts all he would have left are the ****ing fillings in his teeth. We’re in our early forties.

    100% - a fairly well known Irish musician ended up in a relationship with a fan who he met when she was just 14. Always thought that was a bit off.

    A hole and a heartbeat will do. Although a 68 year old I knew in a bar in London was streets ahead of any of the young ones.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,786 ✭✭✭KathleenGrant

    That scandal got quickly swept under the rug


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,249 ✭✭✭ Rebecca Mealy Pain


    my tinder age range for the ladies is 27-36, and them to have no kids.....

    Straight white male privilege. If a woman behaved similarly, Asia Argento for example, they would have had their careers ruined. Same goes for POC.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,858 ✭✭✭Church on Tuesday


    33 m and the youngest I would date would be 25/26.

    Older? depends TBH, sounds shallow but prob only a couple years older at most.

    Da fook you on about, strange few posts altogether

    27 to 40 though I guess!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 285 ✭✭Hellokitty1212


    Good lady is three years older than me -she was 21 when we started courting. Never dated anyone younger.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,028 ✭✭✭PsychoPete


    18 to 21 is a no go zone. They have too much energy, having sex with them would be like trying to catch a wild salmon with your bare hands

    Strange, I've always found older women to be more wild in bed.

    I know one guy who seriously considered breaking up with his (13 years younger than him) girlfriend, because her sex drive was too high :o

    I am in my late 30s now. Any woman would have to be between 28 - 45. I wouldn't be able to hack the drama with a young one.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,794 ✭✭✭Aongus Von Bismarck


    When I was 32 I was involved in a quick, passionate, and slightly volatile relationship with an extremely attractive 51 year old woman. It was sensational at the start - she was extremely passionate, highly intelligent, and the love making was absolutely sensational.

    However it quickly became apparent why she had been divorced twice. An extremely volatile woman whose temper outside the bedroom was soon matched by her kinks within it. I didn't want to arrive home some day and find out that one of my beloved cats was boiling in a saucepan on the stove.

    The breakup was actually surprisingly easy, and I've since stuck to partners who are 5-10 years younger than me.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 9,078 ✭✭✭IAMAMORON


    The lowest is half your age plus seven years.

    The highest is your age minus seven years doubled.

    It actually works really well.

    I get a range of 30-79 and while I'd agree that under 30 would seem a tad young I don't think I'm interested in over whatever age Liz Hurley is .

    It was energy related, mainly... also he said he was afraid he'd get her pregnant too, and he had already gone down that road a few times.
    He was 37 and she was 24. Couldn't just enjoy it, poor fella :o

    I am nailing a 27 year old from around the corner at the moment.

    Absolute bear in the sack, she loves it.

    A gentleman wouldn't refer to being with someone as nailing them. The cast of American Pie might however.
