I'd consider dating a 20-year-old if I felt they were emotionally mature and stable. I'm 26, but that's about as low as I'd go.

I have very high standards after my most recent fiasco. The older I get, the more I realize age is a lesser factor.

the odds someone 18-22 has the emotional maturity to maintain a healthy serious relationship are like a million to one yeah but if I found the one in those odds, I'd give them a chance I guess

Really unlikely though and I prefer dating older women, life is simplier lol

Seems quite common here if you meet anyone studying science-y stuff (all the girls I've posted did >.> Can't say they weren't attractive either!)

This is kind of offensive. Unlikely, yes. A million to one? Not even close.

Maturity isn't solely based off the number of years you've been breathing.
It's about experiences, values/morals, and characteristics within your personality.

To be honest, I think women mature better.
Looking at my past, I knew girls who were quite mature at 18-20.
I was just an immature dumbass.
I mean, we never truly grow up but we learn how to pretend and stuff better around females as we get older.

While I agree with this to an extent, I must point out I'm not even out of my 20's yet and I look back at when I was 19~21 and can't help but think "Man, I was *** HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE."

Even as few as five years grows more maturity than you can realize. Age is more than just a number, with it comes more experience, a better view on your values and morals, and grows your personality.

"the odds someone that young has the capacity to handle a serious healthy relationship is a million to one" was offensive? So you think more people that young can handle serious and healthy relationships? or what do you mean?

Like I said it's possible someone 18 totally is, but damn it is rare lol
You're over-simplifying what you said. 18-22 is adulthood, young adulthood, but it's in that stage. "Young" usually refers to different stages in life.

And I believe that people ages 18-22 have the capacity more often than a million to one, yes.
Understandably, it was an exaggeration, but it was an offensive one at that.

While we're on the subject... If a 22 year old girl keeps throwing into conversations that she's into older men, is she flirting with me?

I disagree Urial. Women are just as immature as men. It just shows up in different areas.

Not enough context.

And as for the maturity thing... It depends on the person. I was dealing with a girl a while back... Four years older than me, and she was one of the most immature women I've ever met.

But someone who might be younger, could have experienced many more things that would require them to grow up faster, inducing more maturity over someone who might be a handful of years older.

How many times?
You study English.
You should know repetition of a word is either because of poor writing or to imply a meaning.

Bare in mind that this can also invite imbalance. Maturity is a slow and constant forward motion. Turning the faucet on at full blast doesn't bring maturity, but it can actually corrupt a person's foundation, harming future growth. Not always, and not irreversibly, but it can and does.

Was jest.
Throwing numbers or anything into a conversation about maturity in a generalization is irrelevant. Maturity is a case by case thing given peoples experiences and how they grew or didn't grow because of them.
That's why I crack jokes about discussing maturity in a general sense.

Well, hmm. We spent the past semester working on our internship together and we would have some time to sit there and talk to each other. She's a shy, short girl with a great smile, a Secondary Ed English major and is really into Heavy Metal. Anyway, at the end of our final, a few people and I were going off to lunch together. She was walking with us and asked why we were all going the same way and I told her that we were going to have lunch, and she said she was on board. We spent the whole time talking to each other and occasionally with the other people there, but most of our conversations were one on one. And in conversation, she mentioned that a couple times.

Speaking generally finding a mature person is damn hard these days, regardless of age.

Well ask her to go get a beer some time. Not as a date so much as two friends talking and in that time you can get to know her and decide yourself.

How old are you again senor, 28 right? a better question is how do you feel about her? : p
Yep, 28. Your memory is awesome, sir. I think she's super cute and brilliant and I would really enjoy going out with her. The problem is, I'm super hawkward (yes, that was on purpose) and if I show a girl I'm interested in her, things always end hawkwardly. So I'm afraid to ask, because that will end horribly. Plus, I really don't want to get involved with someone until I can afford it and live in a place not so... embarrassing.

I don't think it was offensive and I don't think more than 1 in a million people that age can handle a serious relationship healthily. But it's not like we're forced to agree on this or anything and sorry if I've offended anyone here.

More growth can happen from 18-25 than from 1-18, emotionally mentally and psychologically. Maybe a guy's body doesn't change at all 18+ sure but still, it's pretty huge how much we grown in that stage on the inside
Well, I don't think you're considering the changes that females go through, as compared to males. It's literally scientifically proven we mature years before ya'll do, so while the whole 25+ thing might be truly accurate for men, and i agree for men it's true, but for women it's a whole different ballpark.

You also have to realize, younger generations go through different experiences, we grow up with different social interactions, varying technology at our disposal, and global events that others had the luxury of dealing with at an older ages.

Well, she's not a drinker (neither am I), so... maybe I'll see if she wants to go to a BLS concert with me sometime.

Not since that day, no. I do have her number, though.
