Their chronological age has nothing to do with whether I find them attractive, or vice versa. I agree, a 20-year-old may be 'hot,' but if they can't sustain a conversation for 10 minutes I'm not going to find them attractive.

(I'm 35) I think it's a bit more challenging for her but she is happy too.

I decided I would say 34 to 49, once again it depends of how the person acts, do we click, ect.

I've always like the 3 up 3 down rule. (3 years older or younger than me) I have always found the most fun from people of my generation. Now in my early 40's, I cant relate to anyone under 37 ish really. and I dont really wanna deal with the early menopause of someone late 40's. Specially since I'll be there soon enough. After all these years, I finally come to conclude that I like dating people my own age or a tad bit older.
