Do men over 35 still get teenage-style crushes, especially on younger women?

[Anonymous]

Do older men have crushes 35+ like do they still act like a teenager when they have a crush on a lady especially if she’s younger than him? Why would they have a crush vs just being direct

[Anonymous]

Yes. And it's not that they "haven't grown up". Rather they acquired damage and retardation. ㅤ

[Asker]

That’s not nice

It's a fact. Most middle aged teenager-predators are those love-with their parents types. Just look at @badtobad who constantly asks about seducing teenagers and lives with pensioner parents.

We get crushes, but most of us don't act like a teenager would.

You are right, we are more likely to act on it, but also more likely to be unable to act on it because we are already in a relationship. However, if there's a large age difference, especially when she is younger than the rule of 7 suggests, many men are reluctant. The rule of 7 says to take half your age plus 7, so for a 30-year-old it's 15+7 = 22, for a 40-year-old 27, etc.

I do not think 30-year-olds should hit on 22-year-old women.

I’ll be 29 he’s 41

Well not me. I'm the opposite. Even if I like a woman, it's a low effort, slow process getting to know her. I'm not falling in love with the brief false advertising people do early on. I want to know who she really is. Hot doesn't look so hot when you find out it's a "hot mess". Nice doesn't seem so nice when you find out she's a jealous control freak.

Eveybody is a "teenager", people just get older.

And yes it is normal for a man to like young women, and of course to then crush on one.

Not chasing that crush can have many reasons.

[Asker]

Why wouldn’t you chase?

[Mark_Est]

Depends on a man and also what type of woman he sees.

Me personally i never chase, which is the case for most traditional men. We chase goals, not women. We aren't rude to women who come up but we dont bother playing some games.

Men with some experience know that if a woman doesn't come up to you or really tries to get your attention then she is a waste of time and doesn't like him.

Why chase? Its a beneath us activity. It is men who provide the most value in a relationship and we also have the most time and options. Oh please please, let me spend my money on you. For what? Something that every woman has for about 5 to 10 years at best.

It is the womans job to impress us with her personality, so we would risk our lives to save yours.

And when it comes to the woman, these days the quality of women is so low that it is mostly pointless to deal with it. So, often men look at women they find beautiful, but know that it is just a shell, with a rotten core. That is all, so what motivation should me have there?

Probably triggering many women here. However, how many of you want marriage, a nice traditional relationship with traditional values like a masculine man protecting you, taking care of you and etc? Probably plenty. However, how many of you are traditional? How many of you are feminine, virgins etc? Men dont expect much, yet you can't even do the bare minimum, even when it is given to you.

So, clearly, the juice isn't worth the squeeze.

[Asker]

I’m a virgin, feminine, art teacher

[Mark_Est]

Good for you, however you are a minority. Same as traditional men, who also are a minority.

Most are modern women/dudes. Only with modern crappy values and crappy outcomes.

Good luck.

[Asker]

I’m saying I’m still not enough.. I get treated the worst by men so I’m into onlyfans now

[Mark_Est]

Well like i said there aren't many traditional men either. Traditional values ae honour, respect, loyalty, words having meaning, and also to take care of women and the weak etc.

What you have dealt with are modern dudes. With no values, just selfish, egocentric, lack self control etc. And they offer nothing but modern relationships (hookups, flings, situationships etc) even when they fake/try traditional relationships, it will ultimately fail cause they have no traditional values.

Now, since you do OF, you have placed yourself in a bind. You want a traditional man, but traditional men dont want eH. So you have disqualified yourself from them. And that is for life. Unless you try to trick them and lie about your past.

So now you only have modern dudes who deal with you. Your best bet is to find few more decent one. But you have about 8/10 chance to become a single mother. Good luck.

I recently turned 36, so...

I can only speak for myself... and that's a no, the last crush I had was indeed, as a teen... 12~15 years old, and after that... never again

infatuation is just silly and pointless for the most part

[Anonymous]

Yes, but an older man has seen just about ever trick that's in a woman's bag. And most of the time when guy develops a crush on a woman it isn't and accident. She totally planned that.😆

So, the older a guy is the craftier you gotta be. Because odds are he's going to sniff out your game hun.

[Anonymous]

Absolutely. You ever see an older guy being nice to a friendly young fresh faced teen, maybe she's underage and he can't do enough for her even though hed never act on any feelings he may have sexual or other he may have?

[Asker]

What are you talking about?

[Opinion Owner]

Its like me with the 15 year old babysitter we have. I've a crush on her, looks exactly like her mother who is my ex but with bigger juggs and is so much like her. Wish I was a teenager again.

[DryGermanGuy]

If you're cute enough, everything is possible. 😬😂

[DonaldDarko]

Afraid not. In fact I've drifted towards Aurther shopenhaur in my views on women.

[naughtybutnice65]

Yeah i have a crush on girl who is early 20s. I think she likes me too. Don't know whether I should just have sex with her

[BadApple69]

From my experience…. No.

[Asker]

Th n what does it mean

[BadApple69]

As a man over 35 I don’t have crushes on girls of any age. I did when I was younger, but not any more.

[canamlusciouslad73]

I do if they've got big spuds !!!

[jahaims]

Teenager style crush= immature.

[LiamS95]

[Iron_Man]

[Anonymous]
