It's time to discuss age. Specifically, what age range is appropriate for me, at 27, to be dating within? If I were on a game show, and my options were Zac Efron, Prince William and George Clooney....well, I'd have to cross the pond. And not because he's good looking. Or has a castle. And a country. No, I'd choose him because he's a few years older than me, and we'd have the most in common.
But Prince William isn't online dating. However, a cute Tennessee-native who's just moved to the area for med school has asked me to go to the planetarium and then grab dinner this weekend. And while all signs point to yes (intelligent, attractive, I'm totally meant to be a doctor's wife), I'm leaning toward saying no because...he's....25. Before you groan and roll your eyes, I haven't said no to Dr. Zhicago (that one's for you Mom) YET.
I'm torn. I mean...one date?

I'm 35, doing the on-line dating thing, and my range is 34-42. But would consider outside the range if they appear to be a really good match!
I say go out with him at least once! Maybe he's mature for his age :)
I dunno, dudes are mostly idiots until their late 20's, and even after that most are toxic.
Plus if he's still in med school he's never going to ever have any actual time to hang out with you once things get rolling. And he knows that. So proceed with caution.
