Can we just officiate an older littles, older daddies page? LOL

[Mar45]

Let's just call a spade a spade. Not all older daddies are looking for younger littles and not all older littles are looking for younger daddies. And this forum is loaded with a younger crowd which is normal and expected. But we are sprinkled up in here and we're tired! LOL

 

Surely something can be done.....

[SmolAetherr]

i'm not entirely sure what you are asking for here but you are able to view the age of people on their profiles and personals surely that is good enough instead of fragmenting the community and separating people

[MissNMTX]

I can certainly understand why you'd feel the need for this, but really just a little bit of sorting and discernment is all you really need.

[LittleTeacup]

I'm just gonna chime in here with who are you considering older? I'm 30. Am I an "older" little? What about 25 year olds? Are we just talking 40 and above?

 

Sometimes I feel older and sometimes I don't. And we do have an older littles pinned thread already, although it's not involving caregivers.

[Sweetspot39]

I, for one, would be all for that. Maybe a subthread of sorts for this crowd. If there ever were a vote, I'd give it a thumbs up.

[StrngButSweetDD]

I think the idea makes sense, but as others mentioned, it might require website changes and of course someone's time and $ to do that.  I wonder if an ongoing forum post or a subforum for older would accomplish that.

 

I'm a 41 yo Daddy (which makes me officially Daddy material in every way!) so I understand the desire.  Particularly for older littles, who might find it hard to get into the mindset with a younger DD and therefore want to sort for that.

 

If there were a thread, etc. for it I would happily post there.  I have been a Daddy for a long time, and know some tips and tricks for older littles.  Certainly we all could share good conversation, and if someone is seeking a relationship it would be fertile ground for that.

 

Likewise, I'd like to see a location based feature or thread.  I've pondered starting one for PNW Daddies and littles, so we can chat with people it's more feasible to meet.  I keep having a vision of a whole bunch of littles playing in a park someplace for a meetup... and it is ADORABLE!

There’s already this thread here ^

 

You could post your own thread that includes caregivers as well that are older. You could make your own discord group for older littles , or you could simply look at ages of the profiles you peek at. Send a friend request or two to people that are around your age group. I don’t agree with segregation because of age , but I do feel there is a generation gap when it comes to common interests. Not always , but sometimes. I feel as though I’m caught in the middle , I feel old ... but then I see fresh 18-21 year olds and I feel like a dinosaur. I say I feel old to anyone that’s a couple years older than me and they call it dramatic.

 

I feel like old really depends on your demeanor and heart , but I digress. There’s a couple options that seem feasible.

This topic is the reason why I created an account so thank you so much.   It made me realize I wasn't so alone. I am also trying to find friends about my age because being an older Little makes me feel anxious. When I regress, I can sometimes become emotionally immature and if people keep acting like I am 44, or just ignore me because they think I don't belong there, it makes me feel very insecure...    That's why I understand why you posted this topic and feel totally comfortable with the idea of a specific page/thread. I don't think it separates people, I think it's an opportunity to give people who feel a bit different the specific comfort zone that they need.

I'll be honest and say I've never really felt left out of any conversations/threads or been ignored due to my age. I'm 42 and headed over to 43 in a couple of weeks actually.

 

I wouldn't be any more likely to post in a thread for older littles myself but if it makes other people feel more welcome or included I don't see the issue with having a thread dedicated to older littles and caregivers. That said, im pretty sure there's one already, isn't there?

Oh that's ok. I just happened to have had a different experience so I think it's normal that our reaction/opinion on the subject differ but I am very happy for you

I feel like being told that I could potentially need a separate area due to my old age makes me feel a lot more not-included than anything anyone has said or done in this forum.
