Caregiver/little age differences?

[EnbyLittle]

I'm not sure if this is a bit personal of a topic, but I'm curious to know if I'm the only one. Because of my past, I find the thought of having a Daddy/Caregiver who's significantly older than me to be a bit scary, so I'd actually prefer someone about the same age as me.

As a person, I have always dated guys who are older than me. This has nothing to do with the whole ddlg thing....or maybe subconsciously it does.... I dunno. Let's not think too deep about it.

Anyway what was my point....oh yeah!

I have always dated guys who are older than me mostly because guys my age tend to be immature. This is a generalisation (Is that even a word...?) I am aware that there are guys my age who are mature. But the majority are not.

It has nothing to do with helping me feel little, I just find them more attractive.

[EnbyLittle]

Yeah, I'm probably thinking about it too hard lol. Thank you for the comment!

My husband is almost 14 years older than me.. I was really young when we started seeing each other! It makes me think if I had ddlg tendencies before I ever knew it was a thing lol

 

Personally, I'm not attracted to men my age (25), but that's just me

[CrazyLittleBuggaBoo]

I've always always been attracted to men older than I am. With that being said, because of how I am, my personality and my looks, I've only had two relationships with guys older than I was. After starting dating we would then find out the the guys we're actually younger than me. Almost every guy I dated ended up at least about a year younger than me. So in the end, age doesn't really matter to me. As long as I think or rather feel like they are older than me, then everything is ok. Actually age, well it's just a number after all.

My partner is 20 years older than me. Neither of us had realized that at the start and most people think that there's 10 or less years between us.

 

However, the age gap doesn't have much to do with DDlg/CGl for me. I've never felt like his age specifically made me feel little. That dynamic is about complete trust/love/support/etc for my little side. Nothing could bring out my little side more than complete trust in someone, knowing that they not only wanted my little side as is, but also wanted to nurture/bring out that part of me.

I prefer older guys I. General. I will not enter another relationship with anyone younger then me.

 

Mind you I'm only 27 it I'm sure when I am 30 I'll date my age again. Definitely not now

[daddies_velvet_kitty]

My daddy is only a year and 1/2 older than me, so he's pretty young to be a daddy. We met in person and started dating without ddlg. I officially introduced him to the community, although he knew of it before and was interested in it. I don't think it quite matters the age difference. I just met someone who I had a really amazing connection to and was happy when I found out he was really interested in ddlg even before he met me.

It's about what works for you.

[daddys_doll]

My daddy is a year younger than me. I don't mind, because he's taller and his personality is daddy all over.

[LezBabykins]

Actually My Daddikins is 14 years my Jr. and it works amazing for us... like baby girl said  the Daddi personality is right there 

[Baby Neko]

My partner of 1 year is the same age as me and it doesn't really bother me. He is mature and mentally strong enough to fulfil the role so as the two of you above said personality is definitely more important than age.

 

Sometimes I wish he had more life experience and wisdom than me to enhance the feeling of him being in charge of me and make me feel small and protected. But I can look past it because our relationship works for us and now we can reach all our milestones in life together

 

If we were to part ways I would definitely consider dating closer to my age again, as long as he had the mature 'daddy' personality.

[HoneyBee]

My Daddy is about twenty years older than me and that works for us. He is very much my type in or out of a DDLG setting and I have told him as much. I've always been attracted to older guys. Like Child of Darkness I'm not really interested in thinking on it too deep on it I'm just going to go with what works for me.

 

I think that Daddys_Doll and LezBabyKins are right if their personalities are compatible with yours, if they can be a kind, loving caring daddy that makes you feel warm and protected (or however you like to feel) then thats what you should focus on

 

There are some older Daddies out there that are fantastic but if someone older than you stresses you out that is totally fine, maybe thats not for you. At the end of the day what you have with your caregiver is an intensely personal experience, and should be built together with trust and open communication about your feelings, worries, concerns, hopes, and dreams. 

 

All the best!

i prefer older.

i sometimes feel a bit insecure about it, even if it's not that much of an age difference. current boyfriend is 8 years older than me, and some people even react to that awkwardly. though i also seem a lot younger than I am, so i suppose that makes it seem like more of a difference. he's also very tall and i'm very short.

i use to only want to date older guys, having an idea in my brain on what i wanted and needed. but then i found my bf and he's almost 2 yrs younger than me! i really forget though that he is, since he's such a good daddy and way more mature than what i thought guys my age are, but really i think i just got really lucky  

[mylittlesidewearsblack]

Daddy is three years older than me, but i don't think it matters terribly much for us personally. we love each other is all.

I've never really had a daddy of my own, but I love the idea of a big age gap and there are so many reasons behind it! Growing up I was the youngest in my family surrounded by people who were so much older than me and I understood them well and got along with them much better than the other kids from school. I was also bullied a lot while growing up by people my own age so that had turned me off of them big time. I also love being the youngest person in the room and if I'm around an older guy, or an older daddy, it makes me all tingly and happy and I go into my little space so easily and I feel a lot more comfortable and safe.

 

None of it is set in stone though. I'm not ever going to pass up the opportunity to meet and talk to someone just because they are younger than my preference. My preference being 30-45 years old. Sometimes I feel like I could go higher, but I get scared when I consider someone younger and I'm still trying to figure out all of the reasons why...

My daddy is only 3 months older than me, but I feel more little with him being older. Not sure why though, but I love it anyway xx
