After my divorce, I felt like a bit younger would be a good fit. My ex was almost 9 years older and I felt like I'd missed out on a lot. That didn't stop me from dating a bit older, but I felt most compatible with a few years younger. In time, I found someone 7 years younger who stuck around. We're happy, good with similar taste in music, etc, and he's old enough to understand most common cultural references. It works for me.
When I was dating at 42, it was 32 to 52. Never hit the max age, as a lot of the guys had not aged well.

I'm a 28 year old female. My "ideal age" is 30-35. I would date 27-29 or 36-39 too; 40 and up would be a bit weird. I have always preferred older men to younger guys.
When I was doing online dating in my 40's I would go 7 years younger and up to 10 years older - I thought that was pretty generous. My SO is 7 years younger than me - I think younger is actually better for me.
Sometimes I do get ambitious and let the date range to an ice cream shop. But mostly if the gent can tolerate my cooking...then that is proof enough we can get thru a lot.
Yup in retrospect most of my dates are 5 -7 yrs younger...not sure I deliberately seek such...just seems it works out that way.
Recently had a guy ten yrs my junior ask me out. I declined. His son is the same age as my grandson...so I just couldn't get past that ....he started late in having a family and I started a bit early...
I used to think plus or minus ten years was a good range for relationships but at 71 my thinking has changed. I am currently taking care of a husband with dementia and many physical problems and really don't want to repeat this process. Should I find myself single again, I will simply enjoy many friendships and not seek another committed relationship.
I'm 65. Would date someone as young as 60 but not much less than that. Not a real possibility anyway if Match.com is any indication. The youngest I've met in person is 64 and he wasn't interested in a third meeting. I've Liked profiles of other guys 60-64, and sometimes sent messages if they fit my other criteria, but with no response. I suspect they can get younger women so they do.
I don't want to go over 70. Lost my 15-years older husband to acute myeloid leukemia nearly 2 years ago. It was a wonderful marriage but towards the end he was really slowing down and I had to take up a lot of the slack. I am SO glad I could take care of him with hospice support at home in his last days but I'm no in a hurry to take that on again and the older the guy, the bigger the risk.
Current "Mr Possible" is 67.
There are plenty of younger Men looking for a Sugar Momma. Why not just offer an arrangement just like the Men your age are doing. There is nothing wrong with this as Women in power have been doing this in practically every culture for centuries. Younger people of either gender have virility and need money.

There are? Is this a newer trend?
