How about add your age plus 28 then add your age again and divide that number by 4?

Sure - what is the one thing someone under 21 cannot do? Go to the bar. There will always be trust issues when one can go to the bars and the other cannot.

Maybe this reflects my lack of life experience, but I don’t think that’s a big deal at all. If my wife wanted to go to a bar with (female) friends, I wouldn’t give it a second thought.
If she wanted to go on a camping trip with a bunch of teetotaling guys, I’d be much more concerned.
I actually find myself in a similar situation quite often, as I am friends with many single, young women who climb. My wife doesn’t like climbing. To avoid the potential/appearance of impropriety, I won’t climb alone with the women. But I will go in groups where both genders are included. OTOH, I have no problem if she plays tennis with single men.
Regardless, people will always have the opportunity to be unfaithful, so it’s not worth getting too worked up about it IMO.

So you’d be more concerned about the bar than camping trip?
While alcohol in any setting increases your chance of doing something stupid, being alone for prolonged periods with potential suitors is far more concerning. The likelihood of infidelity is more a function of opportunity and desire than intoxication IMO.

In general, yes. I’ve seen it too many times from working in a bar. Just curious, would your wife let you take a weekend to a Vegas with the boys (assuming you wanted to and could go)?

Absolutely. In fact, I've taken several week-long trips there. I even lost my wedding ring on one of the trips.

The woman is in her 30s here.
It has less to do with trust and more to do with conflict. When it's Saturday and you want to go out to the bar but she can't go, it's an easy spot for conflict to arise.

It depends why she can't go - if she's taking care of the kids or doing chores while you're getting your drink on, conflict is understandable. If she has a competing engagement or responsibility you can't attend/assist, I wouldn't expect any problems.
I guess there's also the phenomenon of maximizing one's free time with the sig O regardless, but I think that's suitable for its own topic.

Sorry maybe I should have replied earlier up stream. The convo was about the perils of dating when 1 person is 21 and the other isn't. I see it did evolve into something else. I am strictly referring the way the bar becomes a point of contention when a 21-22 year old is dating a 19-20 year old.

Sure but fake IDs have been much more difficult to make in the last 20 years. What you really need is someone who is 21 to give you their ID and go to the DMV/Sec of State to get a new one by reporting theirs lost.

That’s possible. Wasn’t when around 2000. Also requires the other person to be willing to use one. My GF at the time wasn’t.

that’s good, an improvement from my era in the early 2000s. Wasn’t difficult exactly then but we had several taken and then it cost money to get a new one and some were nervous to use one.

Society has decided, in all 50 states, that adulthood with respect to sexual agency is 18. Once there are two adults in a consensual relationship I don't care what they do behind closed doors.

Isn't hooking up with younger women as you age the entire point to becoming wealthy and powerful?

I don’t think it’s that big of a deal provided the parties are legal, although it can be a little weird. I lived in an apartment in college and was friends with a girl that lived with her dad (50’s) in the neighboring apartment. I also was friends with her BFF (19), who the father started dating.
One problem was the dad somehow was the Energizer bunny and would go at it for hours. Imagine the bedroom scene from The Secret of My Success. His bedroom was next to my bedroom and they were . . . loud. The whole situation made it difficult to be friends with the girls.
Also interesting that so far all the discussion has been about older men with much younger women. Does that mean older women with much younger men is accepted and no one cares?
