I have this crush on this man for many years. He his 10 years older than me and its seems to bother him. We saw each other on and off for about 2 years. He keeps telling how extremely attractive I am and how I can get any guy I want , his exact words are “I truly don’t understand how you dont have a line up of guys for you, you are so beautiful and sweet , you can have litteraly anyone you want”. But he constantly give me the silent treatment for no reason. And when I tell him that his behaviour turns me off, he get upset. I get it he doesn’t love me. But why in the world, if he thinks I am this attractive, he highly doesn’t give a shit about me and ignores me like this. Insecurity? Manipulation? Fear or age gap?
I’m guessing it’s the age difference. Sure nowadays most people are ok w age differences but in his case I think he prefers someone closer to his age. Maybe a little older. But looking at your age category he may prefer someone younger than you. Couldn’t really say. He may just be telling you this to not hurt your feelings. W put a pic I couldn’t say if you’re cute or not as he says you are.

I'd guess it is the age gap. It sounds a little as if he's giving you a way to back out, although it's possible he's just not interested. Are you certain he's heterosexual?

It could he the age gap, for sure.
I'm only 28 and I felt old as fuck dating a 22 year old.
But I was also fine with dating a 34 year old, so it's all in our headsIf he’s straight he clearly is very attracted to you, but doesn’t know how to say it. Maybe the age gap is tripping him up or maybe he’s a little awkward. If you like him I would make a move.
possibly a personality trait of yours he does not agree with and is trying to politely send you away. could be the age (kind of doubt it) . could be he doesn't want a commitment.

What’s his problem? I’m confused as well.
He sounds socially awkward.
