If you are 21 and your partner is in the 21-29 range, I see no problem.

Since you’re 21, I think it’s okay. You just have to stop and think if you would want to be with someone eight years older than you in the long run though. Like if you married a guy that was eight years older, he’d be 58 when you were 50. But if you don’t mind the thought of it, or if you’re simply dating for fun and don’t want to find a future spouse anytime soon, then it’s fine. If you're 21 and happen to like a 29-year-old guy, that's perfectly okay as long as you think it through first.

It isn't the age. It's the person. Obviously 9 years older is not good
if you were 16, but you are an adult, and 29 is in your same age group. My husband is 7 years older than me, but when I was not
married I dated guys a year younger than me When I was 19, I
turned down a guy who was 18 who asked me out. Now is realize
that was stupid. If you have a good relationship with a person, and
love them it doesn't matter how old or young they are as long as
it's legal.

It does not have to matter, but it does matter in which phase you are in life. I dated a boy once who was still in high school while I was already doing my second internship at Uni. Of course, this caused clashed because he wanted to party party party while I was so to say working full time and the last thing I wanted to do on a Friday was to head for the bars. PLus, I was living on my own and he was still living with his parents. This being in different stages in life - not the age as he was only 2 years yoounger then me - made us seperate.
I think you should focus on 26-28 year olds; guys who are still studying or just have finished. Just because you are more on the same level, I think.

As long as you have things in common and enjoy each other's company, I don't see a problem with it. The oldest I've dated has been 20 years older than me, and we had nothing in common, but I am currently dating a man 17 years older, and we bond very nicely. Not sure how we look when out in public, but who cares!!

I do not think age has anything to do with it if you love someone. I think the wider the gap, though, the more understanding the people have to be. I have seen 20 year gaps work fine but others that didn't. Good luck.

i think there can be a limit on age, it all depends, my fiancee is 5 years older then me, and his best friend is 24 and her bf is 40, they have managed to make it work for 2 years now, and i know alot of peeople can make a 20 year gap work, p[personally i think its a little over the top i think a 5 year gap is as high as i would go.

It doesn't matter what age you go for... it's the thought that counts. Just try to make sure he's above 18. And the age range you currently are attracted to seems fine.

At 21, you are a adult and able to make reasonable decisions. I think age range you are talking about is not too far off. Go for it!!

make sure your not looking for someone to take care of you. You know the daddy complex. The men sometimes take advantage, manipulate, of the younger women, regardless of how intelligent you are, sometimes we fall for the ones we care about. Stay strong, I think the age range is realistic.
