To still fancy 20 year old Jason Patric

Please help me figure out if I'm normal or freakishly inappropriate.

Loved the Lost Boys movie as a teen and had a massive crush on Jason Patric (obviously). Rewatched it for the first time in decades with the DC and was alarmed to find I still have a massive crush on Jason Patric. I MEAN JUST LOOK AT HIM.

I am secretly horrified by this. I think he was/is around 20 in that movie, and was actually playing a slightly younger character. What is wrong with me??! This is well into young-enough-to-be-my-son territory.

What is worse, I looked up photos of the current 57 year old JP and frankly they did nothing for me.

So, let's hear it, am I perfectly normal or is this plain wrong?!

I was lucky enough to meet him at a comic con in 2023. He's still gorgeous but very shy.
Met most of the other lost boys cast. All lovely apart from Corey Feldman 🤦‍♂️😬

If you're weird I'm weird! He is just gorgeous Lost Boys. I agree he didn't age very well.

I thought he looked great. Kiefer is like a fine wine 🥰

It’s perfectly normal to appreciate the physical attractiveness of someone younger than you. It’s not like you’re actually dating him. No guilt necessary.

FWIW when I used to watch The Lost Boys incessantly on VHS as a teenager, my mum also thought he was gorgeous.
