I am 37 and I am dating a 48 year old. As long as they both consenting adults, I don't care about peoples age

My husband is 7 years older than I am. I think if I was single, I wouldn't be comfortable dating someone who is significantly younger than me. I'm 44 and the thought of dating someone in their thirties or younger gives me the creeps for some reason. If I were to find myself single,I can't imagine turning into a cougar. I have a friend who is 52 and looks a lot younger than her age and she's a total cougar. Most of the guys she goes out with / has S*x with, are several years younger than she is and she has a 28 year old f**k buddy that she calls when she needs to scratch an itch lol.

That said I don’t think I could date a man younger than me, at least not someone more than 2-3 years younger. I’m 32, and dating someone in their early 20s just seems weird to me. I probably could go 10 or so years older than me. Hopefully I’ll never have to deal with dating again, though.
I told my husband that if something happens to him, I am not dating again. I know I would never find someone who treats me as well as he does and I don't want the drama that goes along with dating. I'll just get a vibrator and call it done.

My Dh is a 1.5 yrs younger than me. IF I was to become single again, I really don’t foresee me dating someone who’s significantly younger or older than myself. It’s not so much age per se but the combination of life experiences and what place I may be in life.

Dh is 17 years older than me. We've been together for 25 years. For us, our ages aren't an issue.

Im not a child predator or want a parental like sugar daddy, both are disgusting.
My preference is 5 to 8 years older than me


That is such an ignorant statement. It makes offensive assumptions about a relationship between two adults.
Not as ignorant as your statement. Its my preference and my opinion, IDGAF what you think about it. My statement still stands

I probably would not date much older I am already 47 but I will do younger if the guy has his shit together. 35-50 is my age range. I would date a guy in his 20's again if he was VERY mature and had his shit together.

My good friend is 62 and her husband is 35-36. They have been together for about 5-6 years and got married 2 years ago.

You are ignorant if you think marrying a younger adult makes someone a predator or marrying an older man means someone is looking for a sugar daddy. The asinine sugar daddy assumption is sexist as hell.

I know hubby had told me to find happiness again after his passing. Maybe I will some day. But it's been almost 5 years, and I don't know. He set the bar so high, and pickings are very slim around here. I really miss the closeness in general.
The oranges of the island are like blazing fire
Amongst the emerald boughs
And the lemons are like the paleness of a lover
Who has spent the night crying.

Age doesn’t usually bother me, but this one creeps me out. Didn’t you start dating when you were a late teen or something?
