Why would a 40 year old woman date an 18 years old man?

[Anonymous]

like I can't even imagine sleeping with him

When I was 17 years old, 16 and a 1/2 17 hi babysitter for lady when she got home. The other lady that she was with asked me if I wanted to ride home. I said sure I'm gonna find out. She lived 2 blocks from me. We went to her house first I didn't go home till the next day. I started seeing her every day. She was 47. This is one of the best times that I ever had, and she said, I could do things that nobody else has ever done. So that was coolbut a number is just a number who you are on the inside determines how mature you are and everything else, not how many birthday cakes you've had.

About a year into it, she told me that she was getting back with her husband which I did not even know that she had been married. I was kind of bummed out, but then she introduced me to a lady friend of hers. That was 37 and almost a year. In to it. We went different ways

Met a 44 year old woman when I was 22
She was beyond conflicted trying to come to terms with the idea that she liked me but I was half her age


She eventually gave in and we had a whole year of endlessly burning fire of a relationship


It never felt weird


But we also had a a semi-long distance thing and eventually I chose to end it because we know we couldn’t take it anywhere further


Neither family would ever approve
I was not up for parenting her 11 year old daughter
She needed to settle into adulthood while I still have a lot of party left in me


Still one of the best relationships I ever had
I think even the top 1 (but it’s debatable)

It would be like dating a baby. Most men are juvineil brats until they reach their 30s, and some never grow up. Some of the most immature men on this site are in their 40s and even 50s.

Some people are just weird (as in the 40yr old) and likely cannot attract people their own age. Just because something is legal doesn’t mean you should

[HawkPerception]

Well that's your own preference. If I was 18 and I didn't care to have kids and was into older women, I'd see no issue with it

[BadApple69]

That’s you. There are a lot of 40 year olds looking for young meat (excuse the pun).
Watch the news. There are a bunch of female teachers of various age sleeping with their students. That’s 25-35 year olds sleeping with 15-17 year olds.
Strange yes but it happens.

So @Asker, what's your personal age limit you think everyone else should follow if a legal age of 18 is not acceptable to you? Is it 19.5? 20? 21? 25? When are you willing to recognize other people as adults able to exercise free choice and risk mistakes?

@Determe ,

You obviously have me confused with someone else. I date women 25 - 30 years younger all the time. In fact, I haven't dated anyone closer in age than about 10 years for a loooong time.

What I have said is that I don't want to date an 18 -22 year old clueless virgin who would basically be an adult child to follow me around. Big difference. It's not a moral judgement. It's purely practical. I don't want to gently train / teach her and listen to her insecurities. I want someone with at least a little experience and a healthy adult attitude towards sex in relationships.

@Determe ,

You are not the brightest candle on the birthday cake for your age. You'd be a definite NO as well.

@Determe ,

Uh no, bitter old granny. I'm not criticizing men for fucking legal age women. I wouldn't fuck an 18 year old but that's not some moral judgement. As I said it's a purely practical reason. Your reasoning and memory seem to be really impaired. They have supplements for that you know. Guaranteed to work. Or maybe Jesus will help you pray it away.

Because having someone young be into them increases their ego, plus not all women think guys get better with age lol

[Anonymous]

Because she wants to get fucked by a young buck.

@Determe "Men" that age definitely tend to be emotionally immature, but they can be very energetic and capable sexually. When I was 17 I had sex a half dozen times with a 30-somthing neighbor (she was the aggressor). Her husband was 10+ years older than her and not very healthy, so I suspect she was craving some younger blood. It happens.

[Opinion Owner]

@Determe Capable in the sense that they are hungrier and can go more rounds. Not all for sure, but definitely some.

Desperate? Probably true. Predators? depends on the age of the young man. The woman I was with when I was 17 was definitely a predator by legal standards.

[Opinion Owner]

@Determe That's what I said.

[Getback]

That's nasty

She's a predator

[Pohjolan]

Maybe she has a high sex drive?

[Pterodon]

Because of his ability to nut 6 times

[Crankor]

Because they can?

[beefcakebradybatson]

Guess?
