Why are you changing the value of x inside the for loop? The worst thing you could possibly do in a for loop is to change the value of either the iterator (i) or the constant (x) INSIDE the loop.

Are you actually wanting to do this?

C#

StringBuilder str = new StringBuilder();
var x = 10; // 10months
for (int i = 0; i < x; i++)
{
    DateTime sixmonthsfromnow = DateTime.Now.AddMonths(i+6);
    str.AppendLine(sixmonthsfromnow.ToString("yyyy MM dd"));
}
MessageBox.Show(str.ToString());
