          My bad, I forgot the biggest milestone in maturity: being legally allowed to buy alcohol, specifically in the USA

          You know, maybe they shouldn’t date someone two years younger either. Wouldn’t want to go out with someone who isn’t mature enough to rent a car

              The average 20 year old has had more life experiences than I have at 28. Any relationships ever, more than one job ever, anything resembling a social life ever. By this logic I ought to be dating middle schoolers. Best to stick with half my age plus 7.

              Crazy how there’s an entire world to experience out there, yet your thoughts float back to alcohol.

          Is that really a big deal though? I know a lot of people that just don’t drink, it’s not part of their social life or not something they enjoy.
