Is it normal for a teen girl to be attracted to older men.

Yes. Even as a teen, I couldn't stand teenage boys, and only sought out older men as partners. Most of the girls I knew preferred older guys. It's completely normal.

Its very normal but i dont think its normal for guys in there 20s & 30s to date teenage girls (Unless 18 or older).That is real creepy.

I think it's normal... I'm 18 and for like, 5 years, I've ALWAYS loved older guys.. pretty much the only guy my age that I actually liked was Nick Jonas.... I like guys like Simon Baker, Tim Roth, Matt Damon, Johnny Depp, David Tennant, Jeremy Davies, Michael Emerson, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt....... just to name a few... =P Older guys just seem to be more attractive....
I had a boyfriend last year (I was 17) who was 28.. older guys are just more attractive... my boyfriend now is 20.. still older..

There's a smaller percentage of females that like younger males. I myself have always liked guys a bit younger by 1 or 2 years. Everyones preference is different. I can see why a female teenager would be attracted to older men though. Its kind like the wild. Woman seek a Protector.

^ i like how almost all the comments above are people arguing .
but yeah , it's totally normal. I have crushes on older celebrities (if that counts) , like Josh Ramsay , Gerard Way and Frank Iero . And they are all in their late 20's-early 30's. (and i'm 15.) just sayin' (:

Awkwardly standing in the middle of all this arguing......

Very normal. Infact, most relationships are like that in the UK.

Yes, if they have daddy issues.

I know it happens though. I've known many women who have been in serious relationships with men who are old enough to be their fathers. All of those women were nut-jobs and I am not exaggerating.

I worry for the young women who come to this website asking if they are normal for wanting a man who is decades older than them. It seems to be common because it's a question that is asked often, but just because it is common doesn't mean that it is healthy or even "normal".

My advice to any young women out there, especially teenage girls, is to seriously think about the reasons why they are unable to feel attracted to guys closer to their own age. You may think that it's because they are not "mature" enough, but most guys become way more serious in their mid-twenties, so I think this is a bogus excuse. What is most likely closer to the truth; you have some deep psychological issues with your father. Even if you are unwilling to give up your old-guy fetish, you should still try to heal those wounds your father left you with; you will never find happiness until you do.

Plus, girls, know that you will be the subject of a lot of ridicule and gossip, and that most relationships with such extreme differences in age rarely last in the long haul. This might not be the happy news you were looking for, but I hope it will inspire you to get some professional help. Good luck. :)

Depends how much older really and how old the teen is. If a 14 year old is attracted to a 40 year old I would be likely to agree that they might have Daddy issues. I personally tend to go for younger. Like 2-4 years but of course always within the legal limit.

I'm 25 and find teen girls much more appealing not just sexually but personally, they are more open minded, enthusiastic, energetic and fun wish I could date one tbh

lots of teen girls are atracted to 30-40ish actors

Hell yeah. Most teenage women want an older guy that know his way around the proverbial block. That knows how to treat a woman, knows how to pay attention to her, knows how to touch her and that isn't prone to premature ejaculation. They're usually taller, more mature, have a job, a car, and live on their own. All desirable things in a potential mate that most younger guys just don't have or can't do, plus, they can buy them liquor, can get em fake IDs and Into the fun parties.

I'm almost 19 and most of the guys I like are either near my age or over 40.

Of course normal

I hope so, because I'm 25 and I'd like to get an 18-19 year old GF

I've seen a younger woman and older man on "Kitchen nightmare's".

Depending on your age and maturity, it could be a real pain in the neck to try to have a relationship with someone your own age; the guys you know could be very immature emotionally and even physically, they could be awkward, they could just be interested in impressing their equally shy and awkward friends. It could be very gratifying to be with someone who looks and acts like a grown-up; who is able to listen to you, show respect, show confident affection without shyness or embarrassment. An unhealthy attraction could be possible, too, if a girl is really looking for a father-figure.

2 years difference normal, 2 years difference not normal. Here in India even i have seen a few young girls with very old women and yea then they are a subject to ridicule and gossip as someone mentioned above

yes normal as. Well i guess it wouldn't be that normal if a teenage girl is attractted to a man in his 80's or so. So i guess how much older are you talking?lol

Obviously you fucking idiot

Stupid question, you just post it even though you already know the answer

Girls are so weird. Us guys have narrower attraction ranges than girls. This is almost like the 6-year-old with a crush
