I have no problem dating an 18 year old and i'm 52, iin?

what 18 year old dates a 50 year old

oh wait, are you rich?

OP, if you try to rebut everyone who answers with a reason why it's not normal, what are you seeking from asking the question on here except universal approval? And on a site where opinions fly in all directions, why won't you bear to have someone disagree with you without trying to refute them? Do you have an uneasy conscience? If it's uneasy, you know, maybe listen to it. I know it's hard...

I understand what you are saying about feeling young so you should date young. But think of it this way... I'm 15 (just an example) so I should be able to drink, have sex, get married, etc. just because I feel like I'm 30. You could be that boys mother or grandmother.

Ask the parents of an 18 year old what they think!

If you like or love someone, who likes or loves you too, and you are both adults... Why not? I always wonder why people waste their time judging other people's love lives. I mean, it's your life. Whatever makes you and your date happy, right?

There are many problems that come with that. One of them is knowing when you are wanted, since most young people don't want to date you or have romantic relationships with you. If you try to have relationships with them casually, you may easily become inconvenient.

Another problem is that you have extremely different life experiences from people who are much younger than you. Ok, you may feel like you are 24, but you really are not, and you do have to some extent the baggage of someone who is 50 years old. This may lead the relationship to become unequal, disrespectful and even abusive depending on how everything goes. These are some of the reasons why parents are really suspicious of relationships like these. Besides, 18 is really, really young. If you look for people who are coming out of grad school, at least they have a mindset that is much closer to that of a full-fledged adult, and the inequality is likely to be much less remarkable than in a possible relationship with a young adult still in their late teens. I mean, the age gap is still going to be great and the problem is still going to be there, but, at least, I believe it's going to be much less extreme than it's likely to be if you are dating someone who is just out of high school. Think about it.

Finally, there is also the question about how the future is going to be for your significant other. They are most likely going to outlive you for decades, and that can be a very serious problem for them when you are gone. You should also think of the consequences of your relationships for the other person, and, alhough the age gap may not look like a problem for you personally, it most likely is going to be a problem for them for at least these three reasons. And, remember, none of these reasons take into account discrimination by the rest of society, but that does not mean discrimination is not going to be an extra problem. You should really think really well before deciding to date people so much younger than you.

i think it's great if you going to take care of her and leave your estate to her ..why not i am 61 with a lot of money saved if my wife goes i will get a 18-25 year old it's like buying art it's great to look at...Life is short enjoy it

the only bad thing about fucking an 18 year old when you are 52 is the wetness and tightness can be addictive . the old birds your age have dried up. and under the panties it looks like an old catcher's mitt. so i think its best to stick with an 18 year old. just get a vasectomy and dont tell them about it. So the believe they have a shot at having a baby. and when they do get pregnant have proof you are sterile and kick them out.

Normal and legal.

If you're not a bad person, then you're not. Don't listen to what over people say. Society always wants everyone to exist in the norm, trying to go outside the boundaries and you get mocked, scolded, critized, or worse.

If you like someone who is of legal age and you are older, and they like you back, I don't really think there's a problem.

Also, on feeling like you're younger I have a similar issue (I'm 23) I feel like I'm still16/17.

Fuck what others think but dude, 18 year olds are seriously fucking annoying.

It's not wrong, but dont expect it to last.

I think it's normal. I am extremely young but I wouldn't mind getting a guy your age if he's hot.

You're both adults. Nothing wrong in my eyes. Just something ya don't see every day, that's all.

its Ok to date and fuck them but they will steal all your money if you marry one of them . Even the gross fats ones . so no problemo dude. Just get a vasectomy so he can't have a baby.

Be sure to pay her as if she was an escort. Sugar daddies that don't pay up are trash scum.

That's disgusting and perverted.

She could be your daughter for goodness sakes! Date someone your own age and stop preying on youngsters

If the 52 year old is a guy, it's ok. If the 52 year old is a woman, it's just too creepy.

No, it's not normal. I don't care how you "feel", you have a whole host of life experience that an 18 year old simply doesn't. 18 is the arbitrary age of maturity we've decided as a society to set that works in general, but dating someone that much younger than you is seriously creepy and makes it sound like, for some reason or other you can't attract anyone your own age so you need to go take advantage of someone way too naieve to know what they're signing up for.

Most 18 year olds are barely ready for adult responsibility. They may have had few or no relationships, may have never held a serious job or even be living on their own. They don't know much about the "real world" yet, they probably haven't been exposed to as many difficult situations and haven't fully mentally developed. There's a reason you need to be older to drink, or buy a gun or sign a contract - because an 18 year old still hasn't fully developed long term thinking and their mental development is ongoing up until their mid 20s.

So sure, they're an "adult." But almost no 18 year old is making an informed decision when they're deciding to date someone over twice their age - the difference in maturity and experience would make it akin to a 16 year old and a 7 year old.

Even assuming you found a unicorn of a youngster who was very mature, who did have their shit already together, and who was fully aware of the risks and consequences endemic to adult life... would you really want to fall in love with, start a life with, someone who's going to outlive you by that much of a degree? They're going to be widowed in the middle of their lifespan. They're going to be in their 30s or 40s and taking care of you when you get older and your health begins to decline. And if they really love you too, that's going to hurt like hell. I just couldn't imagine doing that to someone or being in that situation - I've always had it as a rule that I wouldn't date terribly far outside of my age range for those very reasons.

So no, it's not normal, and you should find someone your own age.

Enjoy it while you can. The fad will fade on her and she will move on sooner or later.

Leave all 18 year olds alone. I repeat leave all 18 year olds alone.

Well it's not illegal...just frowned upon.

Close to retirement age and I STILL get come-ons from late teen-aged gals and up. Having a very physical build far from the norm is very appealing to some gals. I believe it is instinctive for some gals seeking safety and protection. I flirt for fun with them but the mental difference is too great for anything more than that. Does make an old coot feel good, though!!!!

so i was dating this 18 year old one time she was hot but somthing just wasnt right , like she was too eager for sex when i was trying to get into her panties for weeks, so i backed off and trusted my gut. Turns out she was already pregnant . she had gone to a drive inn with a big group of college kids and one fingered her in the back seat with cum fingers. well she married this 35 year old guy two months latter but he did the math and booted her out. man i dodged a bullet on that one i tell you what. its ok to date them for sex but plan ahead and get a vasectomy if you are 58. you dont have to tell them you are sterile , thats between you and the boys.

It's normal to think that way when u r older, but fortunately younger folks typically don't, so you are likely out of luck. Keep fantasizing though!

18 year old pussy is great , you will get a lot of Clinton types that will be pissed that they can't get any cock that will insist you are a bad man. No , what would be great is if you share her with some buddies.
