I’m 18 and want to date an older woman, is there something wrong with me?

[Anonymous]

I don’t have mommy issues. My mom and I get along great but she does annoy me at times.

She’d have to be single and have no kids because I know the kids will judge me for being closer to their age than their mom. Is there some type of cougar dating site? Would it be inappropriate if I approached an older woman at Giant or Safeway for example?

The problem is that you want ANY older woman, rather than that there is a specific woman you like who just happens to be older.

How much older are you talking about? College-age would not make me blink. Honestly anyone over 24 would, because your frontal lobe hasn't even finished developing yet so you're simply too immature, and because of your physical age, have too little life experience for you to be interesting.

It depends how much older you're talking about. Five years? Sure, the supermarket is fine.

If you want to meet a 40 year-old I'd use a dating app.

Lol. So op is ugly, immature, and boring? That sums it up I think.

Oh, I think this would be fun, says older woman who shops at Giant and Safeway. Just don't be offended if she can't stop laughing.

i didn’t say I want ANY older woman. When I say older, I’m talking around 35-50. I’d prefer a white woman, brunette or blonde but open to anything else.

Stop referring women as “anything”. Start there...

The point you missed is that you're thinking of "older women" as an experience, not as individuals. That's not going to get you far. Older women with younger men happens often enough, but when it does it generally happens organically - a young guy and a woman who's part of his circle fall for each other. Think Macron and his much older wife. She was his teacher. If you go out cougar hunting, most women will laugh you off.

so you’re saying I’m fetishizing them essentially? I understand that argument, but I’m also looking for a relationship.

I dated someone 9 years older at that age and regret it

There is nothing worse than being approached in a grocery store. Go on an app, don't humiliate yourself and some poor shopper

I'm sure there are 35-50 year old women out there who would love to have a boy toy to play with. I'm sure there are some fetish websites that you can visit but don't be surprised if they ask you to call them mommy.

Please don’t hit on me in the grocery store. I go there to shop and be alone.
