Im 30 and usually only attracted to women in their very early 20s or younger
Im not a pedophile but I seem to experience a similar age fixation in attraction
Should I just jump off a bridge at this point
Not only am I unlikely to get the young girls I want but I am fearful about how this could affect my ability to have a relationship in the long haul
Should I just jump off a bridge
im 27 and i got carded for buying a video game a few months ago. lots of girls look younger than they are like me. at least at my work there are tons of them
If you make a lot of money then you can have whoever you want. But if you're a 30 year old man making barely above minimum wage going after girls 10 years younger no girl will ever stay with you and you need to get your life together.
And where exactly is the problem?
I don't make minimum wage but I'm about to finish college and want to do a PhD. It will take me at least until my late 30s to be financially stable. I'm pretty well fucked. I could give up my career goals to make more money in the short term, but for what? Even if I manage to get laid a couple times, I'm already 30.
I really wish I would have fucked around in my 20s but I was in a relationship for most of them. It's my biggest regret in life now, by far.
Like even if I *could* start fucking 20 year olds - which ain't gonna happen, I moved in with my mom when I broke up with my ex and probably won't be able to move out until I finish my degree unless I take out a student loan for my last year, no girl wants *anything* to do with a 30yo man who lives with his mom - I'm already 30, it wouldn't last more than a couple years. But even if I decide not to do the PhD it's gonna take me at least til I'm 31/32 to get back on my feet again.
I basically think like an incel at this point, only without the bitterness towards women/the world. Like I can't imagine I'll ever have the privilege of sleeping with a girl I actually find attractive again.
I dunno, something about the fact that she died young makes me suspect she was unhappy in life. Just because she was forced into a marriage that didn't end in divorce doesn't mean it was a worthwhile relationship.
Idfk go on tinder. Lots of girls fake their age even so they can meet older guys.
That's a big thing I've noticed on here. People wave around higher divorce rates as a sign of failing relationships and failing society and failing moral character. But it's much more likely to be a result of the fact that divorce is culturally accepted now. People used to stay in unhappy marriages for years upon years because there was no way for them to leave, or societal pressure for them to stay.
My parents got divorced, and it was hard at the time, but as an adult I can see it was the best thing possible for the both of them. They were not compatible. They did and would have driven each other crazy. And I think any damage from the divorce would've far been outweighed by damage from an unstable, unhappy, angry household.
It would be nice if divorce never had to happen because everybody was happy in their relationships. This is not the case. Divorce is a necessary and good thing. And just because a marriage lasts doesn't necessarily mean it's happy. Especially back when divorce meant ostracizing yourself from friends, family, and all support.
youre good man, youre not alone. i think everyone can get hard to beautiful 18 to 23 year old girl
theres a reason why every other porn video has the word "teen" in its title
>died young
>Eunice died in 2006 at age 78
I'm so confused.
I know, but for me it is very rare to be attracted to women my own age. And I didn't sleep around in my 20s, now I'm 30 and I've mentioned my living situation and stuff... My whole life I've always kept my hopes up about things because I believe in the value of persistence and hard work. But with this, I'm completely fucked. I will never actually get to have a hot young girl, I ran out the clock and it will take me another year or two to even get back out on my feet again, by which time I will be 31 or 32... I don't see how this ever gets better
You... you realize some women actually like or prefer older men right?
I always heard that and I always heard life didnt really end at 30 but honestly interest from women just disappeared quite rapidly from my life over the past year, when I do get any indications of interest it's inevitably someone around my age or even older and 90% of the time I'm not attracted back.
Like honestly, for all the talk of young women liking older men, not only is that certainly not my experience but everything I actually hear/overhear from girls in that age range indicates most would be really creeped out by my expressing any interest on account of my age, no matter how physically attractive I might be and how much I might have my life together - it's just "creepy" because I'm 30+
So add to that my living situation and it's like, of course I kind of want to die, probably for the rest of my life I'm going to be seeing pretty young girls and being reminded that I will never touch, and as I get older my already remote chance to change that will just fade further into the past.. I really would rather just end it now, it's just that I don't want to hurt my family and friends.
Please help, I honest to god wish that my life could just end at this point, I just care way too much about my family and friends to hurt them like that, but I don't see how this ever improves.
Look up what pedophilia means first. Stop throwing words around without knowing their definition
It's a problem when they're teens, not in their 20s
Fucking relax and stop posting regular, completely average shit just to have a thread
I'm not a pedophile, I'm referring to age paraphilia in general though, I think I may experience something similar where I'm nearly exclusively attracted to a certain age range.
Which is the other thing that's killing me: What happens over the long term in a relationship, will I be able to maintain attraction to my partner? I worry about that a lot.
I'm mostly only sexually attracted to women in the 18-22 age range or so. Of course I can be physically attracted to someone who is older if they look young.
Right and while teens are a dumb idea to date, you just like women in their prime. You think it's different for women? Fuck, they don't even need the prime, "silver fox" is a term. They're hornier than we are goddam
Get over it, 18-22 is where women seem to be peaking nowadays and it's not uncommon or weird to like them that age
I just wouldn't expect anything too deep or interesting from teenagers that's all
Should I just get on Tinder and see if I can maybe match with some girls that fit my preference, no fucks given, and hope I can overcome the other aspects of my situation by the numbers game?
