Not if they are chosen childfree.šš |
Is that true? I am genuinely asking. I am married with 4 kids and this is my first time hearing about this. |

I donāt know how old you are, PP, but if youāre indeed 50+ AND have no intentions of settling down with her and giving her babies, then you are a selfish prick. At 25 she is at her absolute prime and should be aggressively filtering out men like you so that she can have a stable family with a good man one day. Youth is so, so fleeting. This is her time, donāt be her biggest regret once sheās older and the dating pool starts to dry up for her. |
It kinda is. |
Probably low income and self esteem and high debt and high life. |
more than likely, they have daddy issues. |
There is a woman in our neighborhood who looks like a model and married a widow with 3 kids. She is like an au pair. I always wonder if she is paid. |

It happens. I know a psychiatrist in his mid-50s who left his wife last year for a 23-year-old employee. They had to keep it under wraps (Virginia), but they're still going strong one year later, and he's getting ready to introduce her to the kids.
People are trying to stay out of it and let them deal with it. It seems weird because a 23-year-old is supposed to still be an adolescent, and you would think a psychiatrist in particular would understand this. But the heart wants what the heart wants. |
These are the best kind. |
| The issue is you are assuming all the men in their 50s are balding, overweight, and boring. Yes, many are. But the ones who are dating younger women are doing well in their career, keeping in shape, and are very personable (part of the reason they do well in their career). A lot of women in their 20s will overlook the age difference, especially when she compares to a man her age who can barely hold down a job and is boring. She can talk to a man who can keep up a conversation, take her to nice restaurants, etc. |
Ew. |
The most common theme Iāve seen with large age gap relationships is the combination of a very outgoing woman and socially stunted but intellectual man. |
I'm only in my 40s, but have all my hair, am tall, lift weights and have other active hobbies. I have a cool sounding career with travel. I am repeatedly told by women I date that that I treat them much better than the guys their own age do. This isn't buying things, it's listening and knowing how to navigate a relationship so that the woman you sleep beside feels comfortable in the relationship. |
The worst part is 23 year olds are allowed to drive and vote, and we even put them in nuclear missile silos with the launch codes! |
