Is there some some sort of light switch that goes on at 25? I asked because I see how they always lump 18-24 year old together.
JJBers 25+: would you date a guy 2 years younger than you?

I personally wouldn't do it... it would have to be someone super super hot.

Yes matter of fact. I'm 25 and thinking about giving it a go w/a 23 year old. We are at the same point in our lives. We both just finished school and are
about to start our careers.

If it's the dude in the pic, he's worth at least a date to find out what he's like

Hit it, Glo.
But I won't date anyone younger than me because I feel like I act older than 25. The guy I'm talking to is 30 and that's my limit.

I usually like older guys, but now at 25, 23 doesn't seem SO bad. I'd really have to like him.

I am 25 and my boyfriend is 23 so yes i would date someone younger than me. go for it because like others have said they really don't mature much in those
next few years anyways.

I'm 25 and I'm dating a 22 year old. It took me awhile to get used to. I felt really weird about it.....but he's more mature than most guys who are
older than me.

I'm only 23, but every guy I've had a serious relationship with has been about 3-6 months younger than me. However I have a friend whose boyfriend had
just turned 19 when she turned 21 - and I couldn't do that. It's a pain in the ass because all of us are over 21 except for him, so we can never go
out and have drinks. I'm surprised she doesn't feel weird about it because her younger brother is the same age as him.
On top of that, he was only 18 when she decided she wanted to have a baby, and if I were her I would've been terrified that he wasn't ready to be a dad or would leave, but that didn't seem to cross her mind at all. |

i'm not quite 25+ yet but yes, I would. I found a good one
actually, I've met a surprising number of guys who are younger who are incredibly
mature for their age. that being said, it doesn't mean they are necessarily on the same plane (plain?) as you are life-wise, they might be on similar paths
but it's really individual as to if they are actually within alignment to you. I used to be more hung up about age and wasn't keen at ALL on dating a
guy 2 years younger, but now that I've met some good prospects, my outlook on that has changed a lot. it definitely wouldn't stop me now, is what
I'm saying. I used to only date older or they'd have to at least be no younger than my age. I do think with younger men there is that added awareness
you must have. just be aware that no matter how mature he may be, he still may not be emotionally up to speed with you. you gotta figure that out for yourself.
I think blairboy said on here in another thread something about not letting age get in your way, because if you do, you don't know what you could be missing out on. that it's silly to let age just determine things. that really resonates with me & helped me to look at things differently so Dennis if you see this, thank you for saying that 
and honestly, a dude who is 24 or older, I'd expect him to have his shit together by that age. or rather, the dudes i would even consider. cuz if they are still immature assholes, there's no way I'd ever even consider them. I think for me in this moment in time, as long as the guy's 21+, then I'm good. |

Gloridia!!! Chris is two years younger than me. I'll be 26 in November. We've been together for five years, have two kids, we've grown together. We
have our differences, but in a sense we're almost the same person.
I think no matter the age, a douche will always be a douche. |

My boyfriend is 21 and I am 23 so I think it's fine plus he acts more mature than me sometimes.

I'm 28 and I dated a 24 year old. I couldn't take the whole "I go to the bar every weekend and get shitfaced" aspect. When I was his age, I
did it but it made me think that we had to drink to have a good time. Plus he was a douchbag and bad in bed.

Theyre retarded at any age, so two years aint going to make much of a difference. Yup. I dated a 29/30 year old when I was 24/25, and believe me, just because he's older, doesn't mean he's mature. I'm 27 now, and I dated a 24 year old. Upgrade!

I think it completely depends upon the guy! And it depends upon you. Maybe what you need is a younger guy who is at a little different place in life and it
could create a balance you need? I say go for it!

I typically stick to older guys, but ultimately it depends on the guy more than the age. If he's a sensible and mature younger man, then I'd go for it.
But if he's caught up in that stupid college frat boy mentality, then I can't be bothered.

If he fulfilled all my criteria, I most certainly would

I don't think I would date a younger man. I always had a thing for older guys.
