I'm 35 yrs old and attracted to older men. I think Clint Eastwood is great, but that's because I had a crush on him since I was a little girl. There are others....Am I sick or is this normal? By the way, I'm married to a man who I love very much and have 3 kids with him and he's only 6 yrs older that me. But I'm still attracted to older men.

I love my husband and have no intention of being unfaithful, but when I see an attractive older man, I get butterflies in my tummy. I'm hoping it will pass but for now, all I do is fantasize.

nothing wrong with you. I dated a guy for 8 years who was 18 years older than me.... it was a wonderful experience.

I think its a far stretch to say that u are disgusted with urself. It nothing wrong with being attracted to older men. Everyone has their preferences. I like men with slim cheeks. I think all of are preferences are attached to something else. So am sure there is a reason why u like older men, maybe they remind u of ur dad or a father figure u never had. Its quite normal, I have a friend who also like older men. Her fiancee is almot 50 and she is 35. But i would caution to not let it interfere in ur marriage.........there is big difference between what u want and need and in the end what u need maybe be different from what u want.

It's normal to have an attraction to people of the opposite sex... whether or not they are older has no bearing it... If people didn't feel attraction to the opposite sex then there would be no reproduction in the human race... not to mention if you look at the animal Kingdom... the older (alpha) males are the ones that the females seek out first...
As for you being married... it is normal still... everyone (regardless or whether or not they admit it) is attracted to the opposite sex (some even same sex :P)... acting on it... however... will more than likely jeapordize your marriage...
Nope... You're not sick... Nor are you disgusting (so don't worry about that or feel disgusted)... :D

Well, there is nothing wrong with being attracted to older men. But, I would say there is a problem because you are married. I mean, you say, "He's only 6 yrs older than me." like it's a bad thing, like crap, too bad he isn't older. Honestly, worry about your kids and your husband. Your married, you shouldn't be thinking about other and older men.

I don't think there's anything wrong with being attracted to an older man. Women love a "distinguished gentleman". Women love to deal with experienced and mature men. Why would you be disgusted with yourself for that. Me personally, I have this thing for Robert DeNiro. That man could be in a wheelchair, life support, oxygen tank, colostomy bag, and be virtually brain dead but I will always find him "SEXY". I don't think there's any cause for alarm here. You're not sleeping with any octogenarians behind your husbands back, so you're OK.

No, I don't see anything particularly wrong with what you've said. Now if there's more to it than that, I could have a problem. Like if it's some kind of fetish or something weird about old men that you like, that's bad. I happen to like women who are much younger than I am. So you'd be just right for me.
I'm glad to know that there are women who don't think old guys are gross, LOL!

hell, honey I am attracted to younger men (I am 53/F but I work out and am in killer shape) so what's the big deal? I'm glad you are marr'd. and love the guy w/the kids.. and it is also nice you realize you got this thing for older guys. (You got yourself analyzed pretty well! good for you.) I don't think you've got a problem and in FACT, like I just said, you've really got your s*it together, hon! ... (older men? I've got one and HE's impotent, a control freak and a whole host of other ****.. lmao) The older guys like to put on a 'show' sometime.. their wives don't give 'em any sex.. blah blah blah... (Don't fall for all that line of crap!) The older they are..? the more they've fallen apart I always say but ONE thing they've still got goin 'on for them is a line of super GOOD **** a mile long, man (for innocent young housewives like yourself!)... later-

It's natural to be attracted to any man. But to worry about this and be happily married.. makes me wonder.
