I think that's the type of thing that changes with age.

I'm 30 and don't think I'd date anyone younger than 27/28, men are so immature laugh

most of the aul wans wouldn't go near a young fella for fear they jockey the hole of them senseless..I suppose when you look at it from their perspective a younger person wants to destroy my cats meow naturally enough they would be over protective of it when really they should embrace the opportunity when or if it comes alongireland

Nothing narrow minded about it Jenny. I'm 29, the age range I am looking for is 25-35, I could probably go as low as 20 or high as 40 if circumstances were right though.

I think you're right, I saw my nieces and their friends growing up and would never go near a kiddie like them. uh oh

My maximim age bracket would be 34 to 45, but I would really prefer someone close to my age, around 2 years up or down. dunno

Nothing to do with narrow mindness, you know yourself what works for you best. bouquet

For a date or a relationship my preference is 35-40 ideally but have and would go either side of those age ranges by a few years, depending on the person. Nothing to do with narrowmindedness. (is that not one word?!)conversing doh

I've been in a relationship with someone 10yrs older than me and someone 6yrs younger than me.
All depends on the person. Although I sometimes forget I am the age that I am, so men in the their 40's seem older to me than they should. I bump into the older guy I used to date every now and then and think he looks closer to my fathers age than mine!!wow

I suppose its more to do with where you both are in your life and what you both want from the relationship.
