I'm 25 and I'd go to 40. My friend dates a 40yr old and he is fit and funny and young at heart.

Oh what the hell who am I kidding if Pierce Brosnan asked me I'd be his like a shot and hes 50 something

Im 21, and if I had never seen the guy, like I'd joined a dating agency and they were asking this, I'd say 29 was my upmost limit, but I mean, come on....

Johnny Depp. Gary Oldman, Alan Rickman... Phwoar! Maybe older men can be nice too.

I've never been attracted to older guys in real life. Celebrities don't count. I guess they make me feel too intimidated.

Realistically I'd probably go 10 years older, but obviously I could be persuaded to change my mind for the right guy :wink:

Out of interest would any of you girls be prepared to 'raise your ceiling' if there was money involved ?? (article in Sunday Times last weekend refers)

Well, I'm 21 and I'd feel weird dating anyone over 28, I think. Just because we'd probably be at different stages in our lives (sorry for the cliche), because the prospect of grown up things like a proper job, and settling down are still quite far away for me, being still in my first year of uni and all. About 24 would be nice, I think.

What about dating younger people? I never used think it was a good idea for me to do, but then I came to uni and met lots of nice men who were 18 and made me think that maybe it wouldn't be a problem actually.

What, date an old man for his money?

Reply 14

I wouldnt date an old man for money :frown:
But power, which comes from money, is an aphrodisiac, so it might make a guy more attractive, if he was slightly out of my limit. But I still wouldnt date anyone just for money, or mainly for money, or even if money was half the reason :frown:

i'm 17 and would say 20, but then again i'd do Billie Joe Armstrong from Greenday and he's about 35 :rolleyes: :p:

The guy I like at the moment is 24, and I'm 19. Sadly it's not going to happen, but if it did it would be lovely. I think I'd go to about 26, but anything over that would be too much of an age gap.

Reply 18

The guy I'm kinda with at the moment has just turned 25, and I'm 18...it's not a serious relationship or anything so I'm not sure of the effect of the age gap yet, but I know his friends and family rib him about it a lot though lol :p: x I don't think I'd go older than that; my sister is 16 and seeing a twenty seven year old :eek:
