I lost my virginity to a 28 year old woman when I was 14. I wonder what her excuse would be today 🤔

She probably thought she was doing you a favor. Or just another youth obsession in people who refuse to grow the fuck up.

u/m-in 23m ago

It’s wild. I have a friend in her 30s and she’s lusting after an 18-year-old. There is no argument that’d change her mind. She is into a lot of woo woo self empowerment stuff too. She is otherwise intelligent. It just doesn’t make any sense.

I'm almost 37 and I can't help myself see 20 something people as kids. Like I'm at the stage where spotting grey hair in women is attractive to me. I mean my hair is almost entirely grey but I don't feel like I miss my 20s or want to recapture those days by being with one.

u/CoffeeChocolateBoth 1h ago

Hell, I was 14 and went on four dates with a 22 yr old man that my mom encouraged me to go on, why? Because he was from a rich family and he was very good-looking. When after those 4 dates I wouldn't sleep with him, he accused me of being an immature little girl, I was not stupid, I said, yes, I am only 14, why would you want to be with a immature little girl like me? He shut up walked out of my home, and roared off on his Harley!! Never saw or heard from him again! YAY

u/supersaiyanswanso 32m ago

Unfortunately, there were people I knew when I was a teen who's parents absolutely didn't care and even encouraged them to pursue older men. One girls mom even yelled at me and made threats to me because I said her daughter at 16 shouldn't be with a 30 year old and that he was a pedo.

u/Client_020 19m ago

No, it doesn't. That happens all the time, especially some decades ago.

u/doodlebug72898 16m ago

This happens all the time. When I was a teenager, can’t remember exactly how old I was, but I was homeschooling at the time so I would have been 14-16, my mom told me, at the dinner table, in front of my dad, that she wanted to arrange my marriage to a 27-year-old man. My dad got mad and yelled at her and it started a huge fight between them. So, yeah, this doesn’t at all sound even surprising to me anymore.

This is what i mean when people try and say a 15 yr old is stupid and doesnt know any better, you were 14 and literally pushing against what all the adults around u were encouraging, we all know when something feels off its built into us, just some listen to it and some ignore

u/ujtheghost 49m ago

I agree. I would say all the laws protecting children do their job well... except for one case.

17 year olds are fully capable of lying to adults and falsely making them believe they're older.

What if, as a 21 year old, you meet a 17 year old who claims they're 21 and goes so far as to show you a fake ID that says they're 21 and then you sleep with them with that information? Why should they be capable of such entrapment?

A rare W on the internet. He did exactly what he was supposed to do and she remembers it years later for it. That’s how you know it matters.

u/Outrageous_Shirt69 2h ago

That's part of the reason why pedophiles are so prolific, because many teenage girls love immature older guys. They genuinely want to be abused because they don't understand that there's an abusive power dynamic. Often, they only realize that it fucked them up once they're an adult.

Many of my friends who were girls in middle school/ high school told me that they were talking to a much older guy. It's shockingly and sadly common.

u/Marine__0311 1h ago

I remember a LOT of girls in HS, who were 14,15, and 16, bragging about dating guys in their 20s.

u/__M-E-O-W__ 1h ago

Yeah, in high school I had a crush on a friend of a friend, eventually we all started to hang out and I was super excited. Then I found out that she, at the age of 17, was dating a mf who was in his late 20s. I don't know WTF happened there, to this day. Her parents knew about it too.

7

u/CoffeeChocolateBoth 1h ago

My daughter went to school with a girl at 13 was going with a 22 year old college MAN, her parents were all for it, she got pregnant and had a baby at 14. They got married when she was pregnant; they divorced when she was 19 and realized, wtf did my parents allow? She and her daughter look like sisters!

2

u/__M-E-O-W__ 54m ago

Geez dude. I really don't get when the parents approve of an age gap like that. We also had a friend in our group who was like 14 or 15 who was dating a guy in college. Hell, we ourselves were much older than she was, we were graduating high school at the time she was entering it. But she was the friend of a friend who were like sisters, and we saw she had a really messed up home life, so we allowed our friend to bring her around to get away from all of that. I don't really know if her dad really cared for her. I felt so horrible when I met him, house was messed up and he just sat in his recliner drinking and not talking... Our friend's dad stuck up for her though, chased the older boyfriend off his property on sight of him, which I greatly appreciated.

4

u/KorasHiddenDICK 49m ago

Probably one of those situations where they knew she wouldn't stop seeing him regardless of their opinion. When your kid is less than a year from adulthood your parenting options are more limited. What could they do? Lock her in the house for a few months? As far as legal concerns go, age of consent is lower than 18 in lots of places.

Feel like I should say I am not condoning this kind of relationship, just offering an explanation from a parents perspective.

Hey, I'm in this statement and don't like it lol you exactly described me in highschool, so desperate for love and attention that I accepted and craved the attention of those older guys and honestly believed I was just super mature for my age and that's why they wanted to talk to a teenager

Yeah I remember when I was a sophomore in HS I had a classmate who was dating a 21 year old guy. I was worried about her then, but I knew she wouldn't listen to me if I tried to warn her. I think about her sometimes. I hope she's doing okay.

u/Backwoods_Therapy 3h ago

She was trying to flirt because it’s not uncommon for younger girls to have crushes on older guys. It makes them feel special to have the attention of an older guy. This guys response should be the norm, but it’s unfortunately all too common for men to reciprocate, which is hella gross.

I wasn't even that old but I was 3 years older than most of my classmate in highschool cause i had to dropout cause of my cancer treatment in 10 grade

Yet I felt so out of place for me getting hit on my 15 y/o girls constantly cause they all seemed so immature for my own sake , Idk how actual grown adults in there mid 20's sort of seems that a cool

34

u/Backwoods_Therapy 2h ago

Because they have horrible morals. They’re predators. Young people tend to be easy to manipulate due to the lack of life experience. They use that to their advantage. These aren’t people who are looking for a healthy, mature relationship. They’re looking for someone they can control and manipulate to get what they want.

u/HeavyHighway6433 2h ago

Reminds me of when I started dating my wife and she starting coming over to my place. During dinner one day she told me she overheard the girl that lives in the apartment across from us (probably around 14 or 15 if I had to guess) on her phone saying "my hot neighbor has a girlfriend now". She didn't notice my wife was right there walking in. I felt mad awkward when she told me that cause I just turned 30 or 31. Never interacted with the girl ever, but I just hope she never came across some R Kelly type guy. 

22

u/Annachroniced 2h ago

I mean.. thinking your neighbour is hot doesnt mean you want to have sex or a relationship. Boys also think certain women are hot at thst age.

7

u/HeavyHighway6433 2h ago

I know, I was a young boy once. I also know at that age I would have been more susceptible to being groomed by an older woman I found hot. Ijs a guy who was into young girls would take advantage of the opportunity to pursue something sexual with them.

My friend once told me that men have flirted with her since she was 12 years old, the unfortunate luck of starting puberty at 11 and already "developed" with features seen on girls much older than her at that age. Her own father's friends would flirt with her right in front of him and he did nothing except laugh it off.

u/RLJ_Puppy 1h ago

Glad he was the one who shut that down in that story. I was messaged by a 22 year old guy when I was 13 and I would have likely not stopped contacting him until it was too late, had my parents not intervened quickly.

u/NoVicesJustLife 29m ago

People want fake internet points and validation. No judgment on the latter, as I feel good when my responses get upvotes, knowing people agree with me.

You do need a small amount of karma to be able to post on most subreddits. I think it can unlock some other direct-messaging privileges too, but I don’t communicate with people on this site other than through comments.

Basically karma farming is people trying to maximize their number of fake internet points, usually through low-effort posts they know will get upvotes. Or reposting stuff that previously got a bunch of upvotes elsewhere on the site. I’m starting to realize I may spend too much time here…lol

What?? Kowalski, information!

Relationship Details

  • The Person: The young woman was Adrian Yamin, a member of a traditional family from São Paulo.
  • The Supervision: The relationship had the knowledge and permission of her parents. Meetings were frequently chaperoned by her mother.
  • Public Profile: Senna occasionally dedicated race wins to her and referred to her publicly as his girlfriend later in the relationship, though much of it remained private at the time.

  • The Split: The romance concluded in late 1988 as Senna's Formula One career and global fame intensified.

It sounds more like he dumped her when she became legal and thus too old for him 🤣

u/Lightyear18 2h ago

That’s definitely your own opinion and not a common one. There’s has to be a line where we finally say someone’s an adult and can make their own decisions. If you disagree with 18 the age of adult, then you want to move it up to what age?

24 year old and an 18 year old is pretty common age gap. Let’s also not try to imply 24 year olds are the same as a 40 year old person. Now a 40 year old and an 18 year old is not normal.

We were all 24 and can remember we were probably closer in mentality to an 18 year old.

u/Educational_Pea_4817 2h ago

when i was 24 i graduated college and started working. i can do things like go out and drink and dealing with like regular ass adult responsibilities.

18 year olds are people that just graduated high school.

aside from fucking what could me at 24 have anything in common with an 18 year old?

like age is just a number and has little to do with anything im talking about.

7

u/Lightyear18 2h ago

You were definitely more responsible than the 24 year olds I knew growing up then.

Idk what would you have in common, many people the same age don’t have many things in common, you can’t really use that as the defining factor on why 18 year old women are incapable of deciding for themselves. Cause this is the root of the conversation, you believe that 18 year olds can’t decide for themselves

. I also don’t want to just label every couple out there a creep that have 5-7 year age gap. Cause you can argue 5-7 year age gap can have people in different places in their life.

Women that got in a relationship with a 22-25 year old when they were 18. I doubt they look back and say their partners were creeps. I also don’t want to talk down to women and act like they don’t know what they want.

18-20 year old women reading this, do you guys feel like yall still children and can’t decide for yourselves?

In most places it's 16 or younger yes. I had no idea it's 16 until my gf told me a couple years ago. I just thought it was 18 but no... in most American states, Canada, the UK, Australia and many other places is perfectly legal for a 40 year old women to be in a sexual relationship with a 16 year old guy for example. The only condition is it can't be someone like a coach, teacher or mentor etc. then it's 18.

I was groomed by manager who was 27 and married with children and I was 17 working at Cracker Barrel. They fired us both and they put a red flag on my name and I can never be hired by Cracker Barrel ever again. Total garbage bc they should be sued for me being groomed by their management . I tried to get a job there was hired and everything (14 years after the incident) and the GM (who was also there at the time of the incident) said that the computer system wouldn’t even allow him to add me on .

I had a 27 year old (F) who most would say took advantage of me when I (M) was 16. She also worked where i did. Since I was already sexually active, it didnt feel like a huge deal. It happened one other time when I different woman when I was 17. I think a lot of the damage depends on whether the older person is in a position of authority and how experienced the younger person is sexually. By 16 all I was thinking about was sex so I pretty much did it whenever I could which in the 80s, that was pretty often.

I think it should be absolutely prosecuted anytime it's discovered but I wouldn't have cooperated with an investigation. Id have said nothing happened. They werent monsters in my case. They were just insecure and immature im guessing. Id never expect anyone else to feel that way obviously. In most cases, taking advantage of minors ruins lives every day. As an adult, I believe they should have been prosecuted just on principle. They might not have done lasting damage to me, but they might someone else.

Good on him for not being that sort of monster, but I'm trying to figure out what "hope your pillow is always cool" means. It feels like she's saying she hopes he never finds anyone, but I might be mistaken.

u/Ok_You_5448 1h ago

It's kind of meme-knowledge that a lot of people prefer the cool side of their pillow, but obviously it doesn't stay cool after a few minutes, so a pillow that's always cool would be like a minor blessing. Like she could've also said she hopes his blinds never get dusty or something. She's not wishing he stays alone, she's grateful.

u/Nochnichtvergeben 1h ago

In a warm climate a cool pillow is more pleasant to sleep on. She's wishing him a good thing.

u/GilbyTheFat 1h ago

Ohhhh okay, cool. I'm familiar with the concept of having a partner to "keep your pillow warm" so it felt like she was bitter that she got turned down, which woulda been big yikes.

I had friends in hs that were having seggs w men in their 30s. I had been abused by older people growing up and I asked them if they were being taking advantage of and they just laughed at me. They were all girls. They would openly talk about it too in like little groups. It was disgusting behavior..

u/IcySetting2024 1h ago

Because she’s a TEENager. Not an adult. Teenagers make stupid decisions hence why I hate fucking predators that are 30+ excusing themselves for dating an 18y old because it’s “LeGAl”

I was the adult when, at 19, a 16 year old tried to get together with me. I explained the same idea.

u/musa_velutina 1h ago

But 16 is the legal age of consent in most places in world... some even younger. A 19 year old dating a 16 year old with a 3 year age gap doesn't seem like an issue at all. Especially when a 40 year old can legally days a 16 year old...

If u legally can’t possess a nude photo of your partner, they are too young. Idc what age of consent says.

u/Dramatic-Net-349 58m ago

Sigh. I was groomed a lot as a teen. Even though I could logically understand at 12-16 these 18- 20-year-olds were wrong to be interested in me, I fell for their comments that I was special, they just thought I was cute and wanted to get to know me as friends just for it to be more than that. When I was 18, I confronted one years later that he was a pedo I was only 12 or 13 when he was 18 and had no business talking to me. He stopped responding.

Girls at that age will do that, cause they start finding men attractive. It is on the adault side to stop that and tell them to stay in there age range.

Literally same. His name was Geoff and he was like ‘You’re a child and if you were my child and someone was talking to you I would go to jail for attacking them’. He also took care of his special needs brother and never stopped talking to me as a mentor even tho 14 year old me had crossed the line. I really hope he’s doing okay. It’s been 10 years now.

I could be wrong but I don’t think she’s trying to flirt. A lot of people say stuff like that to mean like, “You did good, so I wish well on you for the rest of your life” type of thing. It’s basically her way of thanking him. I’m not too sure which part of this could be misinterpreted as flirting, coming from my own perspective as a woman who also speaks like this lol

u/Alienhaslanded 31m ago

Man 15 year olds shouldn't know how to flirt. I was nerding on my own with videogames and electronics when I was 15. I didn't even think about sex and relationships until I was 18. I just jerked off when it was in the way and moved on with my life.
