Do I really need to post this?

Look, that you weren't able to date in high school does not mean you get to make up for lost time by hitting on high school kids now. It's too late. This may not seem fair to you, but that's life. Cope.

Before someone calls the police.

Half your age plus 7. That seems to work as a general rule.

I think we came to the conclusion (in a recent conversation) that what stage of life you're in makes a much bigger difference than numerical age.

I.e., it's probably a bad idea for someone who's out on their own in the world, paying their own bills, to date someone who isn't.

Mind you, people do this all the time--sugar daddies spring to mind--but perhaps what they're doing isn't the thing I call dating.

Yeah, I've found "shared life experience" to be generally a good bookmark. E.g., my friends who are ten years younger than me but in the same stage in my program seem much, much older than the undergraduates, even though the actual age difference is just a couple years.
