how does that work. practically. like how were you in a situation where middle aged women wanted to date you as an 18 year old?

when i was 18 the only middle aged people i knew were parents, or teachers/professors.

the only middle aged people who approached me, were gay men.

    Mostly I had a type so I was being flirty with coworkers at a couple of jobs I had. One was a bartender at a dive bar I went to that didn't care to card.

    I was legal and not looking for a lot. They knew what they wanted and we just kind of clicked. Plus it was mostly going over to their place for food and sex it's not like this was some big love affair.

    Where I grew up most teenagers worked a lot. Hotels, restaurants, bars, etc all needed cheap labor so we had a lot of long hours at summer and weekend jobs. Most of us got included into the adult after work activities.

    I grew up in a place like that but none of us were fucking or drinking with the tourists. we just drank and fucked each other like normal kids.

    and nowadays, they import kids from abroad on temp work visas to do those seasonable jobs, board them 6-8 people to a single bedroom. and the tourists are not fucking those people either.

    first time i met people who were dating/fucking way older people was college.
