There's a reason why you almost never see such a large age-gap relationship between a 20-year-old and a 40-year-old. Two very different life stages. It doesn't mean he's mentally ill; I don't know how you've reached that conclusion. He's a young, immature guy with a crush. 1 1
snowboy91 Posted February 8, 2021 Posted February 8, 2021 I think what he may be feeling is lust, not love. But... I don't think there's a problem here. Everyone is attracted to different kinds of people, so if he is someone who is attracted to women 20 years older than him, then so be it. I mean, considering women sometimes date men 20 years older, why can't it work the other way? Calling him mentally ill is unkind and not really fair. 2

It's very common. In fact those types of crushes often happen in grade school. You and your gang should not care about this. So what if he thinks the teacher is hot? You probably do too, no? 1

I can't explain in words, what he shared how he feels her among us. But if you were there definitely you feel same " that's not lust". Why we wondered this, he knew he can't reach her easily as romeo ( student and a lecture )

Katkats7777 Posted February 9, 2021 Posted February 9, 2021 (edited) why not? if 50 year old men date 23 year old women, why can't it be socially acceptable if a 40 year old women be with a 20 year old young stud ? Edited February 9, 2021 by Katkats7777 2
StrongHands Posted February 9, 2021 Posted February 9, 2021 (edited) I think that it's entirely possible that he is indeed attracted to her. Let's face it there are some EXTREMELY alluring women in their 40s. I can certainly attest to the fact that OLDER women LIKE younger men as well. It goes both ways. OP, if your friend is happy don't judge but rather support him. Edited February 9, 2021 by StrongHands 3

Perhaps it's the language barrier but "crush" is neither lust nor love. He's simply thinks he likes her. However there's no relationship going on. If you and t your fellow 20 year old friends don't see the attraction, who cares? So what?
littleblackheart Posted February 9, 2021 Posted February 9, 2021 If it's one-sided (which it most likely is), it's a crush. If she's the one marking his exam and has a moral compass, it'll remain one-sided at least until the uni year ends, ideally until Romeo here graduates. By then he'll have moved on, as he should. Though it happens, it's actually really rare in normal life for a relationship to develop between a student and their lecturer; that's why they make films out of these things. 3

Infatuation, crush, or adoration might be more along the lines of what the OP's friend is experiencing. Like I previously mentioned, it definitely goes both ways but what I have noticed as far as the OLDER women's actions towards younger men is that they are extremely BOLD in terms of letting them know how interested they are (personal perspective).
Fletch Lives Posted February 9, 2021 Posted February 9, 2021 I need to call the old lady. Thank you for reminding me.
spiderowl Posted February 10, 2021 Posted February 10, 2021 (edited) As an older woman, and having been on dating sites myself, I can tell you there are an awful lot of young men who seem to have a 'thing' for older women. No doubt some are just seeking what they think will be easy sex without the consequence of commitment or children, but some seem only attracted to older women. Whatever their reasons, they don't want to believe they are too young or that an older woman would not be interested in dating them. For the most part, these young guys are deluded because, if not, they would be pursuing women who are actually looking for a younger guy. I actually feel sorry for these guys because they are wasting their time trying to chat up women who see them as too young. Contrary to popular myth, there are not tons of older women seeking young men. There are probably some, but I get the impression from what these young guys say that they have chatted to lots of older women and keep getting the same answer - no, you are too young! So, yes there are some young guys who are mainly interested in older women. I suppose they are just as capable as anyone else of falling in love. After all, if it was the other way round, no-one would think it odd. An older guy dating a younger woman would be seen as a lucky stud! Could he fall in love with his younger woman? Well, why not? If your friend prefers a large age gap, then there is nothing you can do about that. Most lecturers would be wary of starting relationships with students as it could be seen as a conflict of interest as a minimum and, I'm sure, at some institutions is probably forbidden. I would advise your friend to check into the rules at that educational institution before he even attempts to pursue a relationship. If the woman is pursuing the relationship, then again your friend ought to check the rules. I would say the same whether it was an older male or older female. Edited February 10, 2021 by spiderowl 1
