Ignoring your awful tone, I have accepted his answer. I just wonder if I would be better off hooking up with a man who is more into women my age as I am getting older. If I'm going to be with a man 12 yrs my senior, I want him to appreciate the fact that I'm much younger. |
Oh yes, the milf thing def triggered me. That's why I mentioned it. And I agree, it seems he's not that into me. He says he has feelings, that he cares for me etc. But he's never had a long term relationship. Longest relationship was around 6-9 months, his child's mother. |
Don't you know the obvious answer?! Jeez. |
I mean how is it obvious when plenty of people are saying things like this is normal etc? |
If he is that much older than you and is that insensitive? C'mon! Don't listen to dense "plenty of people". |
And you need to work on your self esteem. Big time. |
| So you're telling him about hot guys you work with and then getting offended when he is similarly candid with you? It sounds like he accidentally touched a nerve without realizing that you're probably sensitive about your age. Not worth breaking up. |
What OP said about guys at work carried no negative connotation just a pure statement of fact. His statement carries a negative statement with an attitude that nobody in their right mind would want a MILF. OP is not even a "MILF" she's very young! OP - he's telling that because he's sleeping with many other, much younger women and this is where his passions are. Drop him. I had a very bad experience with a man like that he hurt my self esteem and left me suddenly |
Any man who is incapable of lying to the woman he is sleeping with deserves to be left alone with his hands. A woman feeling desired is part of foreplay. If a man dies not know that at 40, he is pretty lucky that he gets any play. FWB for women OP's age are abundant. Why should she settle for an idiot? |
He's her friend who she occasionally sleeps with, not her boyfriend. |
| Dump him. He isn't worth it. Not if you are questioning it. Listen to your gut. |
| You've made it clear that the nature of your relationship is FWB, so obviously he's not serious about you. He's not your emotional support buddy or your boyfriend, he's there out of convenience. The real question is, were you hoping for something more from this relationship? |
| I would stop seeing him. I wouldn't want to see anyone who makes me feel bad for any reason. You don't need him, so why keep him around? |
Regardless, you're going to be going downhill for whoever you're having "benefits" with. The nature of those relationships allows people to trade in for newer models once they get a little rusty. |
He was trying to neg you so you will feel insecure and continue hanging out with him. Don't fall for it. |
