Age questions

[BabyGirl’sBig]

Hi all, ok, I’m very new to DDlg. I met someone online for a brief and short encounter and online role-playing. SHe introduce me to this term.

Since then .. I’ve been reading, googling, and taking in anything I can find in regards to guidelines, rules, etc.

My question .. At 51 years old, I feel like I’m very much on the elder side of this entire scene. I don’t need know if it’s just the forums that I’ve found so far, but is this scene pretty much mostly populated by the younger ones? Am I too old for this??

No, you're not. You are certainly not the only one of that age here. But this forum does seem to be made out of predominantly younger people (?) in my experience. Keep your eyes open, there's got to be someone for you out there.

Thanks TinyAngel,

Since originally posing this question, I have explored the forum quite a bit mire. I have run across many 40+/50+ profiles. I was happy to see them, and very grateful for your response as well

I wondered the same thing because when I first got into DDlg, I was in my late twenties and most littles I met were 18-22 years old. You're definitely not too old. After getting involved in my local kink community, I realized there were so many littles and Caregivers of different ages, races, body types, and socioeconomic groups. Keep up the researching, reading, and talking to people to learn and gain knowledge. When the world isn't on lockdown I definitely encourage you to get involved with your area kink community. There may not be specific munches and meet ups for DDlg, there are Caregivers and littles who attend events.

As said before you're not alone in your age group, there's quite a few littles and Caregivers in your age range. I know even a lot of us 30+ littles feel a bit outnumbered by the younger littles sometimes but I don't think you can be "too old" for this. There's also going to be quite a few littles who like older Daddies or littles in your age range if you're not picky about them being younger.

 Hi Batgirl,

Age is definitely not an issue for me. My recent Little, who actually introduced me to the formal community, if that makes sense .. was 19 in UK. (neither age nor distance are a factor for me). My ex wife is 34, my ex girlfriend is 30. I've dated in my own age range as well, but .. and a big part of investing into DDlg . most of them accused me of trying to parent them, keep them on a structured schedule, 'teach' them things .. basically, accused me of being everything that a Little would expect from a Daddy, before I was even familiar with DDlg

Yesssss! So true, My preference is a Daddy who is 40+.

Just from pure observation, I think this particular forum isn’t the best place for people 38+ seeking a ddlg relationship. (I’m also a newbie so take this with a grain of salt). I will say though you aren’t too old. I’ve seen some serious age gaps in ddlg and some of those were some extremely healthy relationships. I, myself had a Daddy who was 15 years older than me. So age isn’t something that determines your eligibility!

I'm not sure I'd agree with the above comment. There are quite a few here who are 38+ and find the relationships they are looking for, whether it's on this site or somewhere else. Also, the older more experienced littles and Caregivers are a wonderful resource to the community with their knowledge.

As an "older" little (i'm 40 this year), i figured i'd stick my 2 cents in, for what its worth. I only joined this community in January, and initially, was really concerned about being too old, and seeing that almost every body was younger than me, but now i realise age is just a number when it comes to DDlg. Its natural to feel out of place when you find somewhere new, but even at my age, i've learned so much from everybody here, i couldn't imagine making any body feel too old to be anything they wanted to be. So welcome, settle in and get to know us all, and maybe you'll find a reason to hang around ^^ i know i did <3

I'm 49, and I've noticed that in general, we can be older than the usual active ones. I have noticed that generally littles/middles are younger than us. We've had a similar discussion in the past (I may try to find it). We do have some who accept that we're older, and there are some who immediately jump to the mindset of "ewh, old creepy guy." 

 

So it can be tough, but if it's something you want to pursue, keep at it.

I've found this forum specifically populated by a lot of younger folks, while my local community is generally older. And personally, I much prefer my local community to online. There might be other groups and platforms with an older population, and very likely the local communities are older as well, but this forum is very young. No one is too old, there is a person I know who runs my local submissive group who has been a collared slave and girl to her master for probably around 30-40 years and is in her mid 60's. She is definitely not too old either. You just have to find your niche in the community.
