Author thezappa Posted April 17, 2012 Author Posted April 17, 2012 Looks like you meant to say, "No, I am not trolling." In any case, most trolls have accounts activated within the last year. You registered Dec 2010. I hardly think a troll would register so long ago and use their account sporadically. Anyway, good job, OP. Don't mind the bitter women calling you a troll. Around this forum many older women think older men/younger women relationships should be outlawed. You should be happy you're finding someone new. Sorry, yes I meant not trolling. Fast typing and being accused of something when I am just looking for advice made me a little upset. Thank you! I hardly notice he is older, it is also not like he is 60 years old with loads of money! Just a lovely guy in my class in college whom I happen to have the pleasure of meeting All I wanted was to know how to get his attention and whether he likes me as more than a friend. I'll just figure it out!
Stephanie Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 some of the comments on this thread (and in others as well) sounds like, 'look at me, i'm the all-important troll police, judge-jury-and-executioner !' ...there are moderators here for a reason, so put them to work. Very true, and we rely on the membership to use the "Alert Us" button when they see things they believe are in violation of the community guidelines. It takes all of us to keep this running smoothly.
insertnamehere Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 From the perspective of an older guy (34) who attracts a fair number of women in their early 20s, the big thing I'd tell you is make sure you have your life sorted out. The biggest issue I have with younger women is watching them bounce off the walls going crazy about tiny, stupid, pointless, infantile **** in their lives. I've never been able to come even close to making this kind of relationship work. And a big problem is that I have zero tolerance for all the little girl immaturity that goes with it. If you're mature for your age, it might be worth a try. If you're at the average maturity level or below . . . the whole thing is going to depend on how willing he is to go along with that.
johan Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 Do 32-year olds really consider themselves old? I wonder if the original poster will ever get a direct response to her question. For what it's worth thezappa, I think just making occasional approaches to him, but also not being the only one to do the work is the best way to go. Maybe say hi or start a chat. Then let him initiate the next time. Sort of take turns with him, without being too obvious about it. That way you make it clear you're open to interacting with him, but you also require signals that he's interested as well. If there is any chance of something developing, this should lay a pretty good foundation.
FitChick Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 The biggest issue I have with younger women is watching them bounce off the walls going crazy about tiny, stupid, pointless, infantile **** in their lives. I've been told the same by younger men who like older women. My friends and I were just like those women you describe when we were in our twenties. Now I look back and wonder why all the drama.
