Age Barriers in Romance

How young are you talking about? Breasts are usually done growing well before the age of majority.

As for me, I have a younger sister who's 18 so I'd be pretty wigged out about dating a guy close to her age. Maybe like 21 or something would be okay. As for an upper limit, I really haven't thought of it much, as my current boyfriend is only a year older than me. Maybe like 35.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

No, I agree with Midna. It's not unreasonable to be 25 and feel that 35 is too old for you. But a dude in his thirties saying women in their thirties are too sensitive about their age, and then says they're too old? Hilarious, Crash.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

This maturity discussion is stupid and poorly placed.

First off, yes, teenagers can be significantly more mature than their contemporaries through merit of personality, the rigors of a shitty childhood, or the drive of their educations.

But learning the valuable skill of delayed gratification doesn't make you ahead of the curve in other areas. By this I mean; how is having a savings account going to help you develop a Boyfriend Bullshit Detector (BBD)? How is being well-read going to tell you what career you'll build for yourself? That's what I mean by being misplaced. Just because a kid can pass as an adult in certain situations doesn't make them dateable to adults. Don't be pissed off at that.

But feel free to continue the debate re: old decrepit people telling kids that they're kids; kids replying 'nuh-uh'

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Midna's on the prowl

also do cougars rape and pillage? you should look into it midna it's pretty sweet

Deni, this thread was not originally about cougars. Crash is 32 years old for fuck's sake. No cougar would be interested in him because he's too damn old.

I wonder what it's like when two people of similar age regard each other as too old. I should pitch this idea for a sitcom! twist: they're both black gays.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I want to know what virgin propped this post. Might as well come clean now, or else I'll just ask blah to tell me.

I was speaking idiomatically.

"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.

oh jesus christ just stop talking

'relationship material' = 'let's have babies!'
'dateable' = 'I like you enough to spend time with you, talk to you about shit, and fuck you'
'fuckable' = WHAT YOU WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT

you of all people have no right to get butthurt about people misusing words

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Frank I think you're fuckable.

FELIPE NO

I think any mate I shaped, trained and molded would fair about as well as my ant farm. I never sent for my supply of ants for my ant farm.

I am the worst person in the world.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?
