25 years older...

[ilovethebeach23]

Hi everyone,

Some of you may have seen my PP about being lonely at the moment as my friends aren't nearby. Well, I went back onto OLD recently as well as following the great advice I got on here.

However... I've matched and am talking to a nice man. We have shared interests.

He's 48. I'm 23...

WIBU to go on a date with him? I don't want to end up as an accidental 'sugar baby' or something... and I'd never tell my parents (still living at home). Is it unfair on him? Is it creepy of him? I've always liked the idea of a slightly older man (but I know 48 isn't slightly older)

Thoughts? TIA.

It will feel weird OP

Oh OP....don't change your name on her to accidentalsugarbaby unless that's how you see yourself? Are you letting some rando from a dating site define you??

If you’d got talking at work or at a sports club etc then it wouldn’t be anything like as creepy as meeting via OLD where presumably he’s set 20/21 as his minimum match age despite being middle-aged. Gross. He’s either sleazy or a manipulator.

You seem quite low and vulnerable OP - please don’t give this grim character your ‘phone number. Find a man in his 20s via OLD, or get out and about.

Thanks everyone. You're right... I will unmatch him. We do have similar interests but I can probably find someone much closer to my age with those too. Thanks so much xx

Thanks @HennyPennyHorror xx
