Re: Inspired by 6 - age gaps, yay or nay?

Gil Grissom from CSI was the only crush I had who was much older than me. I think he was about 48 and I was 18 during my CSI phase.

At my current age (31) my fictional crushes are all over the age spectrum. I barely crush on real people at all, though, and I ship WAAAAY harder than I crush (cuz I'm some kinda wonky gray ace or whatever).

As for how I feel about age gaps IRL, I'd say I'm pretty chill about them. As someone else said, it can get kind of creepy if a person only pursues barely-legal partners and then dumps them for new barely-legal partners. But as that other person upthread said, that's more an issue of someone being both fetishy and an asshole. I don't think there's anything inherently bad or unhealthy or abusive about age-gaps, even really large ones.

If one of my cousins (who are 18 and 20) started dating someone much older than them, I think I would be chill and treat it like any other relationship. But if it ever started to seem like the relationship was abusive, I would do what I could to make sure they knew they weren't alone and that they had my help if they needed it.
