I have a kind of weird view on age-gap relationships.

When I was 19, I was dating a guy who was 31. Everyone told me he was too old for me blah blah blah. It lasted 4-5 years.

Now that I'm in my 30s? I cannot imagine dating someone that young!

I have a similar response to these things. I'm not thinking "Ew, why are dating that older person?" but rather "LOL why would you want to date that younger person? What do you talk about? Don't you feel like an old geezer all the time because your SO doesn't remember most of the 90s, nevermind the 80s?"

(Anonymous) 2016-02-26 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
This exactly. If there's anything I question about it, it's the older person's desire to date the younger person. Not that I think it's wrong. It just makes me wonder why someone with a decade's worth of life experience as an adult, would want to date someone so fresh to adulthood.

(Anonymous) 2016-02-26 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
Because the older person is emotionally immature and wants someone on their level, likes the feeling of having power and experience, wants a "trophy" or arm candy, or some combination of those. None of them flattering. Yeah, I've got a lot of disdain for those kind of people.

Excuse me, but bollocks. Sometimes they fall in love. And not everyone goes into relationships for status. I've a lot of disdain for people who assume that's what it must be.

(Anonymous) 2016-02-26 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
DA

Not bollocks at all. Sure, some might fall in love, but the reasons the anon above has listed are much more common reasons for these kind of relationships.

I personally can't imagine dating someone considerably younger because I'm not into younger people. But at the same time, I've only ever dated people considerably older than me (including back when I was really young myself) and it wasn't in any way creepy, abusive, unhealthy, so I don't side-eye other couples with age gaps either.
