Ooo... my parents didn't know about that rule obviously. There's 18 years between them!!
And my mom tried to protest when I dated a guy 4 years older (who I eventually married)

Well, (assuming your dad is the older one), once he hit 50, he was okay with your mom. At 50, she would be 32, which is half of 50 plus 7.

i don't know if that would be a sketchy relationship or not....
on hand it'd be pretty sweet to be old and have a relatively young hot wife (or husband) but it would be weird
ie. ashton kutcher and demi moore

haha good point. So for 12 years it was a sketchy rel'p (they got together when she was 20), until they met the half + 7 rule.
Your math is much better than mine today... my brain is a little foggy

I am getting to the point in college where I only want the seniors and grad students.
IT's not that I don't like boys younger than me, it's just that once you get to know them their immaturity starts to show. Which is worse in boys. So in order for me to find someone on about the same maturity level as me I have to date 24 and up.

I didn't meet any exceptions when I was looking, but I'm sure there are some out there

Well I can only go by my experiences, and I seriously have not found a guy who is younger than me and the same in maturity.

or maybe you're more mature than a lot of people
which is not a bad thing either.
