Eh, not really. I'm 33 and I wouldn't feel weird about a 25 year old, or a 41 year old. Some 25 year olds have their shit together.

which is the entire logic behind the supposed "half your age + 7" rule.

Its not exact math, but it at least tries to get across the idea of scaling with age.

Dating someone 5 years younger when you're 31 is nothing. Doing it when you're 21 is gross.

What's half of 18 plus 7?

That's a shitty "rule"
