My friend (male, 31 years old) is dating an 18 year old girl... Am I right to be a little weirded out by this?

[Anonymous]

It's their life, but it seems so weird to me. I would never be attracted to someone that much younger and it's kind of making me side eye my friend a little bit.

Yes

Not necessarily

[DaveJord]

Nah that's to close to being a pedophile to me... maybe if she was 22 it would not be so weird to me. I at least hope the 18 year old is out of highschool or its just straight up sad to me, and the guy sounds like a loser.

Its not the 13 year difference in age, its the fact that she is a teenager... that pretty terrible to me. Sounds like this guy had her pegged and waited for her to turn 18 then act like there's nothing wrong with it.

[Lionman95]

Yes I think it says something about him because being 18 she might not have that much experience so he can be more easily in a "controlling" position in the relationship and also in terms of sex.
I therefore understand that you´re weirded out though it´s more common nowadays.

[AvaOneLasTime]

None of your business honestly. You are worried about that?
Try a 48 year old man, who has one year old baby, with a 28 y. o. woman.
And 28 year old son, from his first wife.

I think ur just mad tbh. Cuz ur 30-35 and a lot of men ur age are looking at younger women and not u but I could be waaay off. They’re both adults I don't know why women wifey accept homosexuality and if anyone says otherwise their a POS but straight men having sexual deviations from the norm is unacceptable. It’s so hypocritical. That’s just my take.

You're weirded out by what you're weirded out by regardless of whether it's warranted or not. It's been my experience that most guys 30-35 dating women 18-22 seldom. Have a long term relationship in mind. My PERSONAL feeling is any woman 18 that dates a guy 30 or over is taking a big gamble if she expects anything meaningful from it. I think too many young women just assume because a guy is over 30 that his more mature.

[Wester1967]

Are you questioning the woman's sensibility and autonomy? Isn't that kind of hyper misogynist? What do you have against women? Thinking they're all too dumb to make their own choices? What does this say about your self concept madam?

[Anonymous]

Men and women are different. You wouldn't be attracted to someone that much younger, I assume... because you value maturity, experience, confidence and wisdom over youth. Most men have different priorities.

[jshm2]

Dont be silly. If she was 16 then of course. But 18 is an adult.

[Asker]

She was 16 years old 2 years ago, when the pandemic started, not that long ago.

[spartan55]

Sounds like none of your business. So you think your friend should live his life how you would?

[Anonymous]

They're both legal adults. It's none of your or anybody else's business. You are wrong. Age doesn't matter as long as it's legal.

[Asker]

When she was in kindergarten, he was starting college...

[Guy13]

You must be 19 🤔. Given your friend is not dating you🤔. Get the point😏. He’s a Freak

[JustinTheGreat]

Yeah it’s a little weird. What could a grown 31 year old and a teenager fresh out of high school possibly have in common?

[Anonymous]

99% of men are ehebophiles
It is perfectly natural for males to be attracted to younger sexually mature females.
Women over 30 often have issue with this because they are being traded off for the younger more attractive females.

[Asker]

When she was in 8th grade, he was 27 years old. If you don't see anything wrong with that, then you're a pervert.

[zagor]

If it lasts, in 20 years that difference will seem insignificant.

If it doesn't last, then it doesn't really matter at all, it was a fling for both of them.

[Tjw78]

Guys tend to be emotionally immature and women the same age tend to not want to deal with their bullshit.

[Zolly99999]

That's your thing you have to deal with... Not everyone thinks like you. I say let them be as long as it does not interfere with you in anyway.

[Jamie05rhs]

Yeah, I personally wouldn't feel comfortable with that, either.

[Anonymous]

No. Seems fine. You having that hang up doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong. Leave other people to their business.

[noohair]

You are putting a societal judgement on two people that are just trying to find the right person.

[Avicenna]

No, it might be just fine

[joeldalton]

Yeah, she's way too young for him.

[Nagatoro]

Yes, I'd find it weird too tbh

[Shamalien]

Women over 25 have a problem with this

[driven159]

what every makes them happy is all that matters

[JamesRandiDebates]

Nothing wrong with getting some young pussy.

[Zygum]

It is not a issue, as both are agree

[Wunjo1]

I date girls 18 to 44

[Anonymous]

Are they sexually active?

[TrillXHippy]

Are you?
