Love that we're making imaginary [gen-z/gen alpha/gen whatever the hell arbitrary title] the same way our parents and grandparents made imaginary millennials to get mad at.

Yeah, I’m in my mid 30’s and my best friend is nearing 50. His oldest child is the same age as my younger brother. Believe it or not, people can have common interests that aren’t entirely reliant on their age.
Though I will say that age becomes less relevant as you get older… A 29 year old dating a 19 year old is pretty universally creepy, but few people would say the same about a 49 year old dating a 39 year old. Same age gap, but it’s assumed that the 39 year old has enough life experience to actually make their own decisions. Even in my mid-20’s, I was looking at 19 year olds as if they were literal children. There’s a lot of maturing that happens in the late teens and early 20’s.

Also 19 and 29 are both still Gen Z.
Is 30 the oldest genz or the youngest millennial?
-
Exactly, this "rule" is really just equivalent to other forms of snake oil there is. It is baseless and completely made up.
It matches experiences, if you read the other replies.

wrote last edited by [email protected]The lines are fuzzy, and that's why we have the term "Zilennial". So let's just toss them into that category and call it a day.
Edit: Wikipedia says the cutoff for Millennials is 1996, which would make OP an older Gen Z. But I still think "Zilennial" is still most fitting.

Gotta look after your ticker if you're going to stay active at that age. Condolences and/or congrats to his wife though.
Condolences indeed, he's still alive.

I don't quite agree with the replies. The statement "it matches experiences" is baseless as stated in my other reply.
In general, experience ≠ age. This is because experience is influenced by various physical factors such as opportunities, learning environments, etc. Not exactly by age.

I'm not reinstalling Tinder!I tried that with Reddit. Parents cockblocked me. Had nothing but my missed life to think about in the meantime, so my mental health slips, and I ask who besides Serial killers and rapists deserves to die (looking for a description of myself in the answers).
Implying someone's life is worth more than others is a big no no on Reddit.
Get permabanned for inciting violence.

That depends on a lot of factors, e.g. whether they go to college or start working or doing trades directly after highschool.

I'm 54 and most of the people I know are in their early 20s. We get along great and have plenty to talk about.
You don't date though. A lot of people I know are young. Who else tf you going to meet nowadays.
Though I'd date 25+, screw 22+, not younger.
-
Half your age + 7 is a reasonable formula for determining creep factor.
No, a 19 year old dating a 16 year old is still creepy.
-
What if you like having sex with your friends?
Then that is really fucking hot.
-
That's the mindset of plenty of people at 25 or 30 even. I think personal development/priorities are to blame more so than the age gap
I consider 25 to be scrapping the bottom of the barrel for dating. I'm 29
-
OP doesn't understand what cultural progression is. Of course different people gonna do stuff differently as time progresses, the class she was when you where in high school is just irrelevant.
This is the case where op just has skill issue, and is stuck in the past like a boomer he is.
Would you say that for someone underage? Age is age, gap is gap.
-
Just FYI, this rule falls apart after a certain age (in the 60s or 70s).
Duh. Who cares how much older one grampa is from another

I date/have sex with who I'm physically attracted to. Otherwise I'm OK if we just stay (non-sexual) friends. Us having stuff in common doesn't make me horny for them or want to romance them.
If we have nothing in common because of an age gap, then the sexual relationship becomes a reason to learn about them. As long as we agree with each other on politics.
That said I have no expectations, admittedly atm all I've been getting is one night stands every once in a while and I'd like deeper relationships (I'm poly). But fuck maybe I just wont get one. shrugs I'll just keep trying until I get one.
As long as we agree with each other on politics.

The Silent Generation was correct.

OP is still on 4chan. Lingo aside I'd say he's in his maturity range.
4channers should probably just stay out of the dating pool entirely.

Literally all you can ever do.
That said, I never really got one-night stands as a thing. If I connected with someone enough for sex, I was typically getting along well enough for friendship.
Had three relationships that ran 2-5 years each before I got married, with a smattering of dating and perennial party girl friends in between.
But it's so weird to want to hook up, then never see that person again.
