This is my first FWB especially with a older man. I’m 23 and he’s 48. I’m a Aries and he’s a Taurus. I’ve known him for a long time and have had a crush on him since I was a teen. I went to visit my hometown after being away for years. I hadn’t seen him in 8 years. I messaged him on Facebook being flirty, I didn’t think he would be interested. Long story short we hooked up the sex was amazing, it was very different than the sex I had with my Aries ex which was very rough but passionate. Sex with this Taurus was more slow and sensual. After that I flew back home. Fast forward a couple of weeks later I hadn’t heard from him so I thought he wasn’t interested in hooking up again. I messaged him telling him I’m gonna he back in town in a couple of weeks and if he was interested in hooking up again.

He said absolutely and we sexted for a bout a hour or 2. He was telling me how much he wanted me and he didn’t want to wait. I told him he would have to wait cause I couldn’t afford to fly any sooner. He said he wanted me so badly that he would help pay for me to get there. I told him I’ll consider it cause I don’t like ppl paying for me, it makes me feel bad. He said he understood and no problem. He told me to come to him anytime I needed to be satisfied. 2 hours later I messaged him asking when did he want me out there, he saw my message but didn’t respond. 2 days later I told him I officially decided to fly out there later in the month, he saw it and didn’t respond . Does this mean he lost interest and doesn’t want to meet up. He sounded so eager hours before. How can I play it cool without seeming clingy or desperate? Do Taurus men want to be chased? This is my first time dealing with a Taurus how should I play this?

You never know what his situation is. This is a sexual relationship. It's hard when you're looking forward to something like this and the rug is slipped out under your feet.

He could be in a relationship, maybe with someone who travels a lot, and suddenly she's around. Maybe his ex suddenly came back. Maybe he really is that impatient and found someone else who will let him pay for something like a flight. Maybe he has a sudden health or family or professional issue to deal with. Who knows?

He should be responding to you. He's ghosted you. Even if he contacts you again soon, make sure the reason is valid, as he's really not respecting your time and attention. If he continues to ghost you and/or doesn't have a good reason, this is very poor reflection on him as a human being. Don't be disrespected for sex - doesn't matter how good it is.

Having said this, try to find some passion and new experiences with someone who's going to give you the attention you deserve, regular or otherwise.

Women arent predators. Its not the same thing .... old men with pedo vibes looking for girls half their age and more is different territory altogether is what i find gross

seems hypocritical in the extreme...If you're saying this guy is a predator with "pedo vibes" because he's in his late 40s seeing someone in her mid-20s, you don't understand what a pedophile is.

Just the statement "women aren't predators" is extremely naive. There are of course women who molest other men and women, some their own children....

Lets try it this way - if the genders were reversed here, but the ages the same, you'd be ok with it?

@MyStarsShine

you've also posted several pics of Clint Eastwood on the front page expressing your attraction....one even talking about how lucky one of his partners is...

you do realize he's dated, married, and had children with women 33, 35, and 41 years younger than he is? Should probably add him to your "pedo" list...


Hes a film star who i fancy .... lol

I agree but it doesn't sound like this guy was seeking out a 23 year old it just happened and as you can see she is the one who wants him, wondering if he's ghosted her. I'm seeing a lot of really young girls going for guys in their 40s, 50s now a days. It must be something in the water, Daddy issues or they don't get the attention of the younger men they want. Women do have pedo vibes. Look at all the female teachers who prey on young boys.

Probably because he can. You know these old guys like em young.

Taurus men will contact you a lot when they are into you. They are highly clingy and very jealous.


So if he isn’t like that it means he isn’t interested? I swallowed my pride and contacted him days later and asked if I said anything wrong. He told me he was going through some family issues and asked if I was still coming out there.

He could be in a relationship, maybe with someone who travels a lot, and suddenly she's around. Maybe his ex suddenly came back.

I think you need to refocus and make this FWB way more casual. If you are paying to fly to visit don't make the trip just for him. If you are on the way and he is available have fun. Once in a blue moon if he offers to pay have fun. He won't be able to let it get any more serious because at your age you are likely to raise a family and he will be past that.


You’re definitely right. I never expected this to be serious especially cause of the age difference. Just me being my always horny Aries self just wanted to have some fun again. Plus he lives in my hometown and I don’t get to visit often. I contacted him a few days later asking if I said anything wrong. He apologized and said he was dealing with family issues.

Can I ask what happened? I am intrigued as I am dating a Taurus Sun. I have dated a few Taurus men in past, they all never initiate contact, and from my experience with current boyfriend, he often reads and doesn't reply to my messages. It drives me wild and insane (I'm Taurus Sun), as I find it rude! My boyfriend hardly ever initiates contact, I find it very frustrating. Sometimes I wonder if it's worth it, I really love him, but it feels non reciprocal sometimes. Though the with him, its a different story!


I contacted him a few days later and asked if I said something wrong. He said no and apologized and said he was dealing with some family issues. And yeah I understand your pain even though we are in different situations. It’s like he doesn’t initiate contact but when we talk he’s always talking about how much he wants me and he doesn’t want to wait. But yet doesn’t imitate contact

I agree. The statement by Star is just blithe ignorance. My gf was molested by another woman as a child. I've seen women on here mention it happening to them. The reports of it happening in schools with female teachers is fairly common in the media, and its a huge problem in juvenile detention centers, where some studies show that 90% of sexual assaults on males are committed by female staff (who often drug the victims):

You should be able to make a difference between someone writing you stuff while being horny, and the reality of it.

I don't think he expects you to fly to him every month or so, especially after he offered to pay for it.

Write him in a few months time, and if he's still single, he may be interested.


I can tell the difference. I messaged him when I was horny too. I don’t expect anything but sex and I’m fine with that. I had just wondered if I had sad something to upset him that’s all. I reached out and he apologized and said he was going through som family stuff and asked if I was still going out there.

Yes I’m dating young men. I’m just into older men also. And I was interested In having sex with him only when I’m traveling back to my hometown. I’m going to be going back for a family reunion.

I would say don’t look at this as something other than sex. Usually whichever way you start a situation with a Taurus is the same way it will end. It sounds like now that he has had you he is ignoring you so he can dictate the situation and reach out to you when he wants or he’s married 🤷🏽‍♀️


Of course I’m not stupid. I don’t expect anything but sex cause of the age difference. I would only want a serious relationship with someone around my age. I had just thought I had said something wrong. I’ve known him for years and respect him, that’s all. I had messaged him a few days ado asking if I said anything wrong and he apologized and said no. That he was dealing with family issues and he asked if I was still coming out there

Yes I’m new as in I started dating 4 months ago. I’ve never had a fwb before. And yes I’m attracted to older men? How do I have plenty of experience? I’ve only had sex 4 times in my life

I think you need to refocus and make this FWB way more casual. If you are paying to fly to visit don't make the trip just for him. If you are on the way and he is available have fun. Once in a blue moon if he offers to pay have fun. He won't be able to let it get any more serious because at your age you are likely to raise a family and he will be past that.

You’re definitely right. I never expected this to be serious especially cause of the age difference. Just me being my always horny Aries self just wanted to have some fun again. Plus he lives in my hometown and I don’t get to visit often. I contacted him a few days later asking if I said anything wrong. He apologized and said he was dealing with family issues.

If it's just a matter of you being horny call someone else? Are you dating any young men?

Yes I’m dating young men. I’m just into older men also. And I was interested In having sex with him only when I’m traveling back to my hometown. I’m going to be going back for a family reunion. I had just made the post cause I thought I had said something wrong. I’m new to dating/sex/FWB. I had messaged him a few days ago and he apologized and said that he was dealing with family stuff and asked if I was still coming out there.

You say you're new to dating/sex/FWB and then say yes you are dating younger guys but are in to old men also. You sound like someone with plenty of experience.

Yes. I’ve always been the shy quiet nerd. And I decided to just focus on college and work to support myself and get out of my mom place, she’s a single mom financially struggling. I wasn’t in a rush to have sex. What’s wrong with that?

Again, I didn't say sex I said dating. If your life has been too busy to I understand. It's just that most young women like to get asked out and go out to have a good time with guys at your age. You said you go out with young guys but I see you've only been out like 3 times. Was the 4th time with the older man?


I never said I don’t like to get asked out. I like getting asked out and go on dates. And no All times were with men my age. I get asked in dates all the time I’ve been busy lately but if I’m not busy and if I like the person I will accept it. I just chose to have sex with a older man that I found attractive. It was fun to release some sexual frustration with no strings attached until I find the right guy to be in a relationship with. And I would have sex with him again even I visit my hometown again if I have time.

You never know what his situation is. This is a sexual relationship. It's hard when you're looking forward to something like this and the rug is slipped out under your feet.

He could be in a relationship, maybe with someone who travels a lot, and suddenly she's around. Maybe his ex suddenly came back. Maybe he really is that impatient and found someone else who will let him pay for something like a flight. Maybe he has a sudden health or family or professional issue to deal with. Who knows?

He should be responding to you. He's ghosted you. Even if he contacts you again soon, make sure the reason is valid, as he's really not respecting your time and attention. If he continues to ghost you and/or doesn't have a good reason, this is very poor reflection on him as a human being. Don't be disrespected for sex - doesn't matter how good it is.

Having said this, try to find some passion and new experiences with someone who's going to give you the attention you deserve, regular or otherwise.

I had contacted him days later and asked if I said something wrong. He said no and apologized and said he was dealing with a family issue. And asked if I was coming out there

Is he still married?

No he isn’t married. My hometown is a small town and I would’ve known about that. We are friends on Facebook and I’ve never seen anything indicating him being in a relationship or married.

What's a bloke pushing 50 doing knocking off a 23 year old?

😬

loving life?

Extended MLC

🥴

I wouldn't have any idea about that....

but its odd to hear you say that because I'm pretty sure I've seen you on here approving of relationships with older women/younger men....

So?

Women arent predators. Its not the same thing .... old men with pedo vibes looking for girls half their age and more is different territory altogether is what i find gross

I agree but it doesn't sound like this guy was seeking out a 23 year old it just happened and as you can see she is the one who wants him, wondering if he's ghosted her. I'm seeing a lot of really young girls going for guys in their 40s, 50s now a days. It must be something in the water, Daddy issues or they don't get the attention of the younger men they want. Women do have pedo vibes. Look at all the female teachers who prey on young boys.

How young?

I think if you see an alarming amount of young girls going out solely with very old men (late 40’s and beyond), it’s definitely something to consider and take a deeper look as to why.

But I am in disagreement with coming up with quick conclusions, throwing judgments and acting hastily without knowing the whole story.

When I was 19yrs old, I was working full-time as a drafter (later designer) in an engineering department for a construction company - I was the youngest person in the entire company. I was the only female in my department, I wasn’t a tomboy and a lot of the older ladies in other departments would tell me that I was very mature for my age... guys also always assumed I was older. So, I got a lot of attention and working there every day, I ended up getting attracted to some of my older colleagues (youngest person I knew was 24 yr old in another department). I was also going to college, and there, I would find guys my age and be attracted to them if I saw them often as well.

It wasn’t because of daddy issues for me. It was just attraction based on the environment that surrounded me every day. And I never felt like any of the guys I was with (where attraction was mutual) preyed on me. It wasn’t like that at all.

I understand OP’s story might be different than mine and I believe her story should be fully heard before judgments are thrown out. She mentioned she knew him as a teenager and that is alarming to me. Not sure how they met and exactly how old she was when they met. If she was a child-teen... I would find him very creepy (especially if he has kids of his own)... even if she was the one preying on him.

I’m attracted to older man and men my age. Im not solely attracted to older men. I new him when I was 18 I worked at USPS and I was the youngest employee there I worked with a lot of ppl who were 10 or more years older than me. I got a ton of attention and he was one of the guys that I was attracted to physically. I only wanted a sexual relationship but I was too shy to say anything until years later.

i guess as an "older" woman on the board, i would advise a bit of caution, op.

i'm not necessarily talking about the age difference. you're both consenting adults so no judgement here.

but there does seem like a disparity in experience. fwbs take a lot of emotional experience to handle in a healthy way. if you've had sex 4 times with different partners and now a guy who, without question, has had a greater amount of sexual experience than you - be careful. fwb is no strings, no feelings, no obligation. if you are writing about concern if you've turned him off or appearing clingy or annoying then i fear that you might not be ready for fwb.

and yeah, i am old school. sex to me is meaningful and intimate and something to be shared with someone you care about as an expression of that feeling. i'm no prude and i get the need to scratch an itch but it can come with a price if that's where you place it's value for any long period of time.

Okay you're confusing me. You keep talking about sex and I'm talking about dating. Have you been on more than 4 dates in your life?
