So I am a 17 (almost 18!) year old guy and I find myself attracted exclusively to older women (mainly ages 20-35ish). Is this totally weird? I am not a sex addict or anything and I don't want to date them for any kind of hot sex fantasy, I just really like mature women. Mostly I find myself attracted to younger teachers, talented actresses that I've been in shows with, friends' older sisters, etc. I have never talked to any of my crushes because I am way to scared of them thinking I am just a little creep. :( I am really ready to start a relationship though... do I just need to settle for someone my age..

Some women prefer younger men, most will not.

At 17, the 20 or 21 year olds would not be considered as "old" do you still date girls your age, or do you not date because of this

Date them all my friend, you are to young to miss fun because you prefer much older women. The time will come for more serious relationships, until then go with what you got.

Dating is not settling. It's an opportunity for great experience.
