Let's analyze.

2X - (X+7) = 13

Solve for X=20. So 40 and 27.

That's the lower limit of the rule that says it's okay. Is it weird for a 40 year old to date a 27 year old? I'm going to say no. At 27, you're an adult and you've been an adult for awhile. At 40 you're not quite, but close to middle aged. Both are kinda in the ballpark age-wise, just on different ends.

As you get older, that 13 year gap is going to feel even smaller.

76 is the average lifespan for Americans. So by 38, you're middle aged.
