Sua’s a lawyer. Any higher math that doesn’t involve money is beyond him. 
When my aunt was 11, my uncle was a fetus. Fortunately, the age difference was irrelevant at the time, as they hadn’t even met yet and weren’t at all interested in one another.
8 year spread between Mr. Adoptamom and myself. He was 32 and I was 24 when we met. We’d both been previously married, both had children and were both the wronged parties in the break ups of our marriages.
I was initially concerned about the age difference but it has rarely been an issue. Music is the most revealing area - he’s hard rock and roll and I’m a little lighter. Even that has melded over the years.
17 years strong - go for it!
Go for it! You’re both adults. If it doesn’t work, hey, at least you tried, right?
Glad to hear all these success stories, too. (Not that I’m interested in someone older, or anything. heh)
All right! Would any hot 28-year-olds like to have dinner with me and maybe catch a show this weekend?
There’s nothing in that rule about being married, right?
If she’s the adopted daughter of your current long-term girlfriend, there may be a problem . . . wait, never mind.
I have gone both ways, albeit briefly. When I was 24 I dated a 32 year old girl. (Cough…lesbian…cough, cough) It was fine for awhile. Broke up for different reasons. I also “dated” a 17 year old when I was 23. This was a mistake and we really only went out once or twice. She was really, really hot, though, so I had to at least see what she was like. Definetly not my type no matter what age. And I did not even come close to breaking any laws in the whole process. I guess that would violate the divide age by 2 and add 7 rule. I should have known.
42/27 worked (and works - four years later) very well for us. As others said: go for it!
I’d love it! I’m 22 right now, and if a 32-year-old woman asked me out, I’d be quite flattered.
Unless she’s calling you “daddy.”
Are you guys kidding me?
32 and 22 year olds?
Yeah, OK. Just be home the both of yah before midnight.
Do you like her? Then of course you should ask her out. And pursue her and win her…
If you wanna, of course. I’m a geezer and can only tell you what I’ve learned: Life’s Short.
I did it. Well, she asked me out, but there you go. Really, it depends on the people involved.
And the “she was twelve when you were twenty-two so it’s creepy” argument is just stupid. He’s not dating her ten years ago.
And that’s the thing about age differences. As we all get older, they don’t mean as much. Sure a twenty two year old asking out a 12 year old would go way beyong creepy, (or a 12 year old trying to date a 2 year old), but 32 and 22? No big deal. By the time you get to 55 and 45 it’s not even something most people would bat an eyelash at.
Have fun.
I’m 31 and my hubby is 42. We started dating when I was 22 and he was 33. If she’s cool, ask her out.
