When I was a teenager, I thought people in their 20’s were the most attractive. Now that I’m about 40, I still think people in their 20’s are the most attractive. It’s hard for me to believe that I might ever be attracted to someone past retirement age, even when I’m past retirement age myself, unless the person is like one of those celebrities who look way younger than they are.
This isn’t something I can comfortably ask most older people I know, but there’s one man who admits that he isn’t and one woman who is. Which is more normal?
I can recount from my personal experience that i’ve been attracted to teens when i was younger. Now that i’m 25, not so much anymore. I still see the appeal, but it gets less interesting to me as i’m not looking for that kind of relationship anymore. I’m looking for a more “reliable” partner.
Oh and also in the past i could never imagine staying with one person only. Now, i can.
The question was “Are OLD people usually attracted to other old people?” You are 25 what do you know about being old? There’s a colossal difference between 18 and 25. There’s much less of a difference between 50 and 43. Your personal experience isn’t really applicable here because of that stark difference.
well am i old if i feel old enough?
isn’t oldness relative?
You are right. It is relative. I’m twice your age. 25 is so young to me. I didn’t even really start having fun with adulthood until about 30. And I got into some shenanigans as a teen and twenty-something. Maybe that was more to do with leveling up the career until I had disposable income. Anyway, you may find yourself looking back on 25 and view it differently than you do now.
No, you’re twenty five. You are a young adult.
let’s settle on “i’m an adult”
You still aren’t “old”. Don’t be in a rush to age
i’m not in a rush, j’m just stating facts
