Are My Preferences Weird?

[PeachyPantsu]

Okay, so I was having this conversation with a friend earlier about my relationship preferences.

She knows I'm into DDlg/MDlg but she thinks it's weird that I have age preferences because I am into a kink that tends to place a younger person (little) with an older one (dom)

And I try to explain to her that the younger part is mainly just young AS A LITTLE and not actually young of age.. but then I noticed a trend of that actually being the case.

 

I tend to go for people who are about 5-7 years older than me. Any more than that and I just don't really find attraction (however there are exceptions) and I wanted to know if other people had same preferences or if I'm just weird?

 

Also, you can comment any of your preferences for relationships if you'd like to! I'm sure everyone thinks something they like or prefer is weird at some point.

I don't think that's weird at all. Everyone has their own tastes.

While I generally don't mind/prefer any particular little-age, I do prefer a little that's actually younger than me. I don't know what it is about it, you could be 1 day younger to any length of years younger and I will find attraction in that.

Although I've personally so far had rather unpleasant experiences with littles between 18-19, I'm sure that's just bad luck, I don't plan on that affecting my preferences of age.

That's not weird to me, that's normal actually. My preferences are weird since I prefer an older partner and before I met my daddy I always thought the older the better.. Anywho he's just a year older than me and I love him lots.

Also completely off topic, but I liked how you wrote your topic. ^w^

That's not weird! Most of my crushes were actually a bit younger than me and I'm a little! Maybe I'm the weird one lol

 

I cant see myself being with someone more than 5 years older than me for some reason >_<

[PeachyPantsu]

Thanks you guys~ it helps me feel better knowing I'm not being like abnormal with my preferences.

[Guest StainedBlack]

I generally prefer younger 18-21 with exceptions. I'm currently 26.
I think it's pretty common with the kink.

The older you get the more of an age gap you're comfortable with. It can be quite awkward for 19 year old to date 40 year olds. And the long term effects need to be talked about long in advance.

Your preferences are how you feel and nothing should try to change that. Many have preferences on height, body type, beard or beardless, tattoos. Just as some have a preference for little, middle, pet, or sub. It is whatever works for you and physical attraction is also important. My last relationship had a 30 year age difference and it never became a factor. Sure, there are things you have to discuss but they are really the same things you have to discuss in all relationships. So, just be you and don't worry about it. Also, normal is an illusion.

It's not weird. I don't like large age differences, but I also don't like the idea of being with someone younger than me. If someone is twice my age I find it creepy for them to trying to flirt in the first place.

[LoralieHaze]

I guess I'm the weirdest one here because I've always been attracted to men much older than me. I think this is part of what sparked my interest in DDlg, even though I know that a large age gap isn't required. While it isn't something I have control over, I do have reasons for it. The biggest one being that I don't relate to people my own age. Not to be reductive, but I'm not interested in snapchat or getting wasted or the awful stuff that passes for music these days. The second biggest reason is that older daddies will have more to teach me because they've experienced more of life. Learning is very important to me since I never got to go to college. Now that I'm thinking about it, I have a ton of reasons but I won't list them all, I don't think anyone wants to hear them

I have very similar preferences. I dont often find myself attracted to partners both DDlg or any relationship if the age gap is beyond id say 7 years. It becomes harder to find interests and things to connect on outside of the scene. 

 

I am a very meat and potatoes type of person. I cannot keep my interest in someone that only has 1 or 2 things in common with myself. I prefer having someone close to my age that i find them personally interesting. they know the music i like, they know the shows i do and have closer tastes to me cause maybe we are the same or close generation age wise. 

 

It does feel hard tho cause on other places like FL or such i meet Daddies that are twice my age or older and i just dont have a single thing in common with them other than we both like DDlg. I cant base a DD/lg relationship on just that. i know how you feel and it is not weird what so ever

[Guest TwinklingSpace]

To me, I don't really care about age. Either I'm attracted to someone because of their appearance or personality.

 

Now, with saying that... I'm usually attracted to men who are a lot older then me. Like 10+ years or younger then me 3+.

 

I don't know why... that's just what I normally fall for.

 

I don't normally find myself attracted to men my age.

 

I don't know why.

[Princess N'wah]

That isn't weird, a preference is a preference!

But personally, I haven't really been intrigued by men older, nor younger than me. I've always been indifferent.

My Daddy is two years younger than me but he is much, much more mature than I am.

Though if you feel as if an age gap is what you need in your significant other, or Daddy then I say go for it!

Whatever makes you feel the most comfortable.

I once dated a kid 4 years younger than me. He wanted me to call him daddy but it was too weird and I didn't think he fit the role.

 

My usual thing tho is my age only. Every time I date someone even a year older or younger I just don't have that much attraction for it to succeed. Plus me and my current daddy have very old souls sorta thing so it works better to be the same age and be the same way haha

[Dumbledork'sPrincess]

I generally prefer younger 18-21 with exceptions. I'm currently 26.

There is 20 years between Daddy and I. I was 21 and he was 41 when we met

Me and Daddy have been likened to long lost lovers in an old married couple. We haven't even known each other for a year yet :3

Me and my current daddy, have the same age difference and it gets kind of weird for me. He still has a teenage sorta mind (he's 18) meanwhile I work and do adult stuff while he only studies. Getting into little space with him is really gets hard, plus the fact that I'm way heavier than he is. :/

[Spring~Faerie]

I dont think your preferences are weird. I have a classamate thats around 22 and she only dates guys who are 10+ years older. And she isn't even a little

My issue with the guy who was way younger was that he made it impossible for me to be in little space because he was pretty screwed up :/ I didn't like it. So I refused to call him daddy. I guess it's all up to the person in the relationship on whether or not preferences are weird.
