Would you date a guy who thinks it's great that a 19yr old he met on a plane 15 years ago gave him a blowjob in the airplane seat?

He was 40 when this happened. They ended up dating for 3 months.

He's 54 now. He thinks it's something to be proud of.

I've got an 18 yr old daughter. I'm feeling rather repulsed.

I've been on several dates with him. Getting on well. Now this has come out and I'm wanting to kick him off the sofa in my home that he's currently sitting on next to me.

Gross.

TinkerTiger · 01/08/2024 22:29

No.

Unless it was his private jet.

I’m joking. No.

WandsOut · 01/08/2024 22:30

No excuses - bin him now before you find all the "barely legal teen" porn on his laptop.

I doubt that actually happened.

But whether it did or not, bin him off!!!

If it did actually happen, then...
Yes it's gross that she was 19 and he was 40.
It's rank that they did that in public.
Why on earth did he tell you? I don't want to hear about my current partners past sex life.

I would be tempted to make up a story about the time you had a threesome with two 6ft French men with six packs, how it was the best night of your life etc etc, and then send him on his merry way and never speak to him again.

Ecstaticmotion · 01/08/2024 22:31

No. Maybe if he recounted it as a story that made him go and do a bunch of therapy and work on himself, boundaries, power, respect etc but recounted in any other way: no.

ItsTheGAGGGGGGGG · 01/08/2024 22:31

I don’t understand why people feel the need to share these things when dating. Keep that bullshit to yourself at the very least

Thatcat · 01/08/2024 22:32

Do you really need to be asking this?
Gross.

Blanket. Overnight flight. Dark. They were on the two seats at the back of the plane.

The back of the plane? Where the toilet is and where cabin crew hang out?

insidenumber9 · 01/08/2024 22:34

Jesus..does that not give you the ick about him?

DontBiteTheCat · 01/08/2024 22:35

It didn’t happen.

Which means he’s the type of 50 year old man that makes up sexual fantasies which include girls the same age as your daughter.

WandsOut · 01/08/2024 22:37

He will be looking at your daughter as fair game.

rootsandwings89 · 01/08/2024 22:37

Fuck him off

Juliet194 · 01/08/2024 22:40

It's also really creepy that he specifically told you her age. Even if his story is true, he could have left that detail out. The fact he felt comfortable sharing it with you is an even bigger red flag. He might be testing the water to see your reaction. Or he has zero awareness and doesn't realise how creepy he sounds/is.

Any man boasting about a blow job with a 19 year old in any circumstances when he was twice her age would make my fanny clam shut. Get rid. Especially if you have a daughter around that age.

TeaGinandFags · 01/08/2024 22:42

🤮🤮🤮🤮

HurdyGurdy19 · 01/08/2024 22:21

He's made up a lovely story for you, to try and make you think he's had an "interesting past". How on earth could anyone get into position to do that in any case - unless they were flying first class. No one else saw them, and made any kind of fuss about it?

I'd not go further with him for making up that kind of fantasy and expecting you to believe it!

@HurdyGurdy19

its entirely possible in economy, especially when you're a short, bendy teen.

@Curiousto

if you're only at the dating stage WTAF is he telling you about this? THAT would put me off far more than what actually happened.

its a whole new world these days re generally accepted age gaps.

I'm 55, at 19 a 40 year old wasn't out of the acceptable range. Definitely not.

Mnetcurious · 01/08/2024 22:43

Gross, get rid.

CeliaCanth · 01/08/2024 22:44

Are his initials NB?

Shallysally · 01/08/2024 22:45

No, just no. You know how grim this is OP, I hope he is on his way home because you’ve dumped him.

Ponkpinkpink15 · 01/08/2024 22:45

VeryQuaintIrene · 01/08/2024 22:24

I mean, just...how, given how tightly everyone is packed in?? Is he really rich and could afford not to be in cattle class?! Anyway, yuk, of course.

@VeryQuaintIrene

flight didn't seem to be as full then, it wasn't unusual to book 2 seats in the best of three & find no one had booked the 3rd seat. Quite a few flights I ended up with the 3/4 seats to myself.

CoffeandTiaMaria · 01/08/2024 22:48

Utterly grim 🤢

LittleMonks11 · 01/08/2024 22:48

Didn't happen.

What a prat.

In the skip.

pinksunglasses · 01/08/2024 22:48

It definitely does happen 😅 but it’s weird to tell you about it and the fixation on the age makes it creepy. Was it as part of a conversation about sex? Or was it a random disclosure during Corrie?!

Agreed that aged 19, a 40 yr old male was not out of my league or my range of fancying.

But it's the fact he let her act on it.

After he'd chatted to her for an hour or so.
