Myself I'd look about 4 years in either direction. To my way of thinking any further than that and you run into getting involved with someone who is not at the same stage in their lives and this can create issues. I know there are many successful exceptions but this is my rule of thumb.
And no, I wouldn't consider race/country a factor.

Anyone in their late 20's who dates someone younger than 21 is a bit creepy if you ask me. Not to mention the fact that there is (or at least should be) a *major* difference in the maturity level of a "late 20's" person vs. a "younger 20's". As for older SO's, I think it depends more on the people involved. I am 29 and my wife is 40. It works pretty well, mostly because I think women my own age are pretty vapid and petty.

I'm 26 and my husband's 30. I wouldn't go any older than 30 and no younger than 25. Country or race don't play a factor. Just personal prefrence. I prefer older men. They ten to be a little more mature. (Just a little!)

I am 28. If I wasn't happily married, I would say as young as 21 and as old as 40. I am American, so no, the country I live in has nothing to do with it, neither does race.

people more than country or race are significant coz people of the same race and country of same age may look remarkably different depending on other factors.

I am not single any more, but at 29 years old I would probably go down to 25 years in age, and then up to about 35 years in age.

I'm 25 and my girlfriend is about to turn 41. I didn't expect it to get serious, nor did she. We both figured it would just be a little fun. However we both were surprised that we fell in love. I don't think anything over twenty years though would work. However, who can say for sure?

i would go 5-6 yrs older, but not less than 2 yrs younger.
Race isnt an age issue...a lot of ppl..dont agree that 2 races should mix in dating/marriage....regardless of their age.

I'm 27. I wouldn't date anyone younger than me because I would feel like I was babysitting. I wouldn't want to date anyone older than 32.
