Today, college roommie Diana told me about a mathematical formula for determining the minimum guideline age of someone to date: half your age + 7 years.
29/2 = 15
15 + 7 = 22 year-olds
She uses this to justify dating 24 year-olds. Hypothetically dating, not that she IS dating any 24 year-olds. Yet. 😉
To turn this formula around, let’s see what the maximum age I can date is.
x/2 + 7 = 29
x/2 = 22
x = 44
Okay, I’m good.
Geeze, what’s mine? 60?? Ick.
i am SO proud of you. you remember how to do algebra! and this formula, always works.
and no, i am not planning on dating any 24 yr olds! yet.
And I’m not dating any 60 year olds! Ever! Until I’m 59.
HAHAHA! Omg, you guys are so funny!
I noticed the same thing Diana did! Kudos on doing algebra!
The formula is so simple and straightforward. Just like E=mc2. (C is squared, of course.)
