*chose the 90-100 option* (it's a shame the age range isn't extended beyond that...just thinking of others, as always. ;))

Respect your elders, chillun.

How about "We may be old , but we're not powerless..."

You can't possibly know how much I agree with you.

I hope to be like Maggie someday.

That doesn't tell me much, unless your location, Tejas, is a misspelling of Texas, which would mean you're over 21. If it is Tejas, however, I'm fucked for an answer, 'cause I don't know where Tejas is.

s
29 Sep 2004, 06:36 PM
One way to look at it is Texas is a misspelling of Tejas.

I look much younger than I am; I feel older than I am.

My age doesn't really matter, I was just reaching for an age topic.

The Chinese believe, or believed earlier, that a man should choose a mate half his age plus seven years to make them both happy.

Myself, I don't think it matters if people are in love.

My personal vote would be for a girl ranging from 17 - 18: providing neither of us got any older.

This should be another whole thread.

I tend to date older women. It definitely depends on the person but intelligence and sophistication are such turn ons for me that I can see why the skew.

Not sure how much age matters for me. I would like for us to be close in age. I suppose if I were to have a number in my head I'd want to cap the difference at 14-15 years. Don't want to date someone who's old enough to be my mother. Although when I was in my early 20's I dated some women who professed to be in their late 30's, but I later found out they were shaving a couple of years off so I have no real idea.

Doesnt matter to me much at all, I mean obviously if it's a 40 year old man after a 12 year old girl there is something very wrong there. But I don't think age should have a lot to do with it, it's not a very accurate system..

As for myself, though, I tend to date older guys. I'm just more comfortable that way.

As long as they're close, within a year or two. Older girls (around +3) have flirted with me, for some reason... hmm.

Wine coolers? You are a legal drinker now, so drink something better than that!

It matters to me. I prefer a guy several years older than me. Guys my age tend to not be as stable and don't know what they want. I'm only interested in serious relationships anymore. I'm generalizing here though and would be open to exceptions, but this is what I prefer.

Yeah, it could be a whole other thread, but people answered ^_^

I dated someone who was 4.5 yrs older than me, eh..let's just say I won't do that again. +2 would be ok, for some reason I attract guys that are younger than me as well, I would consider it...but it depends on the person.

If someone was 10 yrs older than me, I would be afraid that they would die sooner than me (this is of course, if we were in love), but I guess that's just something that can go both ways.

I FIND THAT SIGNIFICANTLY YOUNGER GIRLS ARE NOT ABLE TO KEEP MY INTEREST. GENERALLY, THEY ALSO LIE ABOUT RIDICULOUSLY STUPID THINGS. HOWEVER, I'M ONLY 21.
A FEW DAYS AFTER MY 21ST BIRTHDAY I BOUGHT SOME JACK DANIELS TO CELEBRATE. I HAVE NEVER DRANK (IS THE PAST PARTICIPLE OF DRINK DRANK?) A WINE COOLER. I'VE NEVER HAD A BEER, EITHER.

I find it deeply moving that so many here are concerned about others' dying: real little rays of sunshine brightening up the putative deathee's hanging on by a thread existence.

By the time you are a little older you will find big girls do this also.

Drunk. Isn't a wine-cooler what you put bottles of champers in, to be wrapped in ice ? I've never had a beer, or ale, or lager, either. But that's from choice, not morality.

Wine coolers, I don't know what they are really, but they are drinks my mom likes, and I just remembered I actually have had one before. I was a little guy though.

edit: I just looked it up on google, all that came up were like wine racks. I know I've heard of and seen wine coolers before though. They're like fruity drinks or something.

Wine coolers are like alcoholic kool-aid (I honestly do not know, if our foreign friends have kool-aid)... how about punch? At the risk of sounding sexist, they are a girlie drink.

No need to rush out and become a heavy drinker, just thought I would keep you from getting ridiculed by other guys. ;) I am teasing.

Jack and coca cola was my college drink.

Once upon a time, I was a practice teacher. I spent three agonizing weeks trying to teach To Kill a Mockingbird to some general-level students (although that's not the term we use anymore).

You wanna know fruitless, big guy? Try that on for size. Good god. I actually ended up failing that practice teaching segment, and had to do an additional three weeks at the end of my stint at teacher's college. :blush:

I'd rather have someone pour sand in my eyes than set foot in a school again. If you thought being a student sucks, just try teaching! :D
