HAY GUYS

Mine's about 3 years in either direction. Part of that is legality's sake - I am really uncomfortable dating a girl younger than 18, being 21 myself. I haven't exactly tried pursuing anyone over 24 (though I've had some make out with me unexpectedly) but I don't see why I would, really. I know I'm not at that level of maturity yet, and I wouldn't be the best choice for them.

However, the widest gap ever for me was about 4 years. Technically it was still legal, but also a very, very bad idea.

Actually, in most states in the US, the age of consent "varies" depending on how much older the adult is than the minor. In Utah, for instance, if the minor is 17, the adult can be up to 9 years older (26). If the minor is 16, the adult can be up to 5 years older (21), and if the minor is 15, the adult can be 3 years older (18).

Supposedly. They'll still try to nail you with a misdemeanor charge if the girl or her parents come after you legally, but no felony charges ever.

When you're thinking of getting involved with someone that is still a teenager (or possibly even in her early twenties) I can see a large age gap being a problem. I'm 19 and definitely not mature enough to date someone in his mid-twenties.

QFFT. I've been on BOTH sides of this - the younger one being told he's more mature, and the older one telling the girl she's more mature. In both cases it was because the older party was comparatively IMMATURE. Seriously. I don't care how well-put-together a younger girl may seem. Age always makes a difference that has no substitute. On the flipside, sometimes it's not a big enough difference.

How ya doing, buddy?

Anyway, fuck this noise, underneath all this bickering lie two very simple truths:

1. Legal age + hotness = "dateable" material.
2. If you disagree with the above, you're either old, a prude, a woman, or too self-righteous to admit that you would shove your happy stick into a hot female even if she didn't have the brains or maturity to be someone you'd want to spend any more time around than is absolutely necessary.

Next time I will make the quotation marks much bigger so that you get the idea. Let me spell it out for you.

"Dateable" = hot enough to sleep with. Sometimes, you must go on at least one date in order to sleep with a woman. Hence the term dateable.
Relationship material = someone you'd want to spend time around, get to know, establish a connection with, maybe eventually marry.

Sometimes, the two come together and make something wonderful! Sometimes. Most of the time you just fool yourself into thinking that they have, and end up sad and lonely and divorced. Someone told me that once.

I was speaking idiomatically.
