I ran into a handsome guy recently and he immediately launched into his dating credentials: I have a great job, I own my own house, yada yada. It was strangely adorable and I admit he made me laugh. Then he told me his age and I laughed even harder! He wasn’t even 30.

I don’t want to be a cougar though I have dated younger men in the past. I just can’t date 20 year olds! Handsome guy made his case well and said it was his maturity that really mattered. He said he usually dates older women. I gave him my phone number with some trepidation.

What do you think is an appropriate age difference in dating? What is the youngest you will go that would cause minimal issues in a relationship?
