Half the age of the older person plus 7.
Therefore...
- Under 14 is too young to date at all
- A 14 year-old can date another 14 year-old
- A 20 year-old can date a 17 year-old
- A 30 year-old can date a 22 year-old
- A 40 year-old can date a 27 year-old
Some people might look down their noses at a 40 year-old with a 27 year-old, but most won't be too bothered by these gaps.
If you did it the other way around...
- A 14 year-old could date a 10.5 year-old
- A 20 year-old could date a 13.5 year-old
- A 30 year-old could date a 18.5 year-old
- A 40 year-old could date a 23.5 year-old
These are the kinds of age gaps that would get a guy a punch in the face from their girlfriend's dad at any age.
