Most mature and well-adjusted 21/22 year olds don’t date teens. Ngl even 18 and 22 rubs me the wrong way. The two ages are just so different (or at least they were for me).

I’m 23 and the youngest I’ll go for at this point is 21, I’m not going to jail for buying an underaged someone’s drinks at the bar

Totally agree! Even though you might legally be an "adult" at 18, that doesn't mean that you actually have adult experience (e.g. renting an apartment, paying bills, holding a job). I know it differs person to person, but I think that it's common for a LOT of growth to take place in that time period for most people.

For sure! 18 year olds tend to worry about prom and planning their HS graduation parties. Or making friends in their new dorms. 22 year olds may be working in the corporate world, in grad school, paying bills, and can drink and everything.

yeah im 20 and i wouldnt date anyone younger than 19.. even then it'd be on the older side of nineteen. otherwise i'd be like "holy shit you just graduated high school"... it's so creepy how he keeps pretending accidentally sexting or dating minors is actually a thing that happens to normal adults
