Got hit on by a guy 25 years older than me

Long story short, I admire him and what he has achieved at work. I look to enter the same industry so asked him out with the idea of being friends and learning from his experience.

Maybe it was partly my fault but I was so shocked that he hit on me, asking me to go on trips abroad with him and tring to hold my hands.
We went out for a few drinks but I did not see it as a date at all! I mean, he is old enough to be my dad for god's sake. And the thing is, I am Asian so I look a lot younger than my age.

What is wrong with older men nowadays? Do I have no chance of being friends with men at all?

@AnyFucker cos I imagined my dad, an old, fat and grumpy man, hitting on a 22 yo girl like me...just...no...

yes, that's a bad thought...but it happens

kikusema · 07/07/2015 19:15

@Lweji I'd shag a younger guy as long as he is functional and not a hippy

Yes, I'd go the other way too..I've found people aged 18 to 60+ attractive at the same time. Age is just a number.

Diamondjoan · 07/07/2015 19:18

Are you really asking this question, surely rhetorical no?

OttiliaVonBCup · 07/07/2015 19:18

Not all old men are fat and grumpy.

Not all old women are fat and grumpy either.

Each to their own.

you are a little bit strange aren't you ?

Senada · 07/07/2015 19:26

^^

OttiliaVonBCup · 07/07/2015 19:27

I had one of those weird feelings in my stomach when I watched "dad&daughter" in the team porn section... that's probably why I was asking this question... (is this even allowed on mumsnet? lol)

Can't blame you TBH. Hmm
Most people would.

kikusema · 07/07/2015 19:27

I am sure people have worse fetish...

Grin at Anyfucker's understatement.

Fatstacks · 07/07/2015 19:28

Nope.

I reckon that's one of the worse ones imo.

22 is (or should be) old enough to have a personality and interesting things to talk about. He may, perish the thought, find those things attractive about you.

anyway, if you aren't interested, say so. Job done.

The female figure is made to attract male attention , it's natures way of keeping the human race going. So don't be surprised if occasionally you get unwanted glances. Men have raging hormones too, but learn to control them in most cases, they don't fade away with age, so be aware......

Fatstacks · 07/07/2015 19:52

RTFT guys, seriously, just read it Confused

I dated a man 22 years older than me for a while. He was hot.

He certainly wasn't with me because of my age - in fact he was horrrified when he realised how young I was (28) because his sons were 2 and 4 years younger.

If you are this naive I would strongly suggest you take a chaperone on all meetings with men from now on.

AnyFucker · 07/07/2015 20:10

I think op is a lot less naive than she is making out
