Is it just coincidence, or is he a bit of a weirdo?

    Really? He's dated a lot of women, none over 25, that's not a coincidence. He's 50 years old BTW.

    Here's the infographic, from 2022:

    I was asking if it’s a coincidence he keeps breaking up with them at a certain age like a weirdo, or if the relationships just always go poorly anyway.

    Allow me to help give context. This is Leonardo DiCaprio we're talking about, a very famous movie star. This man can afford to have eccentric personal relationship rules. These women, while much younger, are still adults who can make informed decisions about their own lives. It's even easier to grasp when you realize this just means they know the relationship has a predetermined max limit.

    Thi2nk of it like a summer fling. Someone comes into town, just for the summer. You really hit it off and both of you want to spend more time with the other. But you both know at the end of Summer, they're leaving town again. Would you still be willing to enjoy that time together?

    It's kind of like that, except the other person is Leonardo fucking DiCaprio, and they're leaving town because they're rich celebrities who can do whatever they want.

    So yeah, it's definitely fuckin weird, but that doesn't exactly make it bad. Those are independent variables.

    Reminds me when people were shit talking Melania Trump for being obviously much younger and hotter than Dried Turnip. She shut them up because no shit, shes hot, he's affluent, it's win win. Relationships are social contracts, not Disney fairy tales.

    I think he's gay, and these women are hired to be his beards. Part of the deal for them is that they get exposure, and also a chance to rub elbows with the Hollywood elite. All of which would be a lot more enticing to someone just starting out in life and their career.

    It could also be that they still aren't that emotionally mature and when they turn 25 they realize what a weird situation they are in and thus leave him. I do think it has to be a mutual agreement. It's too tight to be a coincide and thus far Leo has never been in any scandal or negative comments about the relationships and he is still friends with a lot of them. So, it's weird, but not in a “creep abuser” kind of weird. I just think he is emotionally stunted from so much fame and power from an early age. It fucks up social development.
