Is this lifestyle for me?
Hello everyone,
I’ve been browsing this subreddit for a while and haven’t really found anything similar to my situation, so here goes.
I’m fairly young, 26, and at a point in my life where I’m no longer interested in dating around casually. What I really want is peace, stability, and a genuine connection, preferably with an older man (40s and up).
I’m 5’2, and definitely more of a curvy woman, that puts a lot of effort into herself. But from what I’ve seen from personal experience, SD tend to gravitate towards more „traditionally“ fit SB.
For me, it’s not primarily about money, but more about the fact that men at that age tend to be more settled in life.
Though Financial stability can definitely contribute to that sense of calm and security, which I value.
Lately, I’ve been wondering whether the SD/SB lifestyle could actually suit someone like me. I understand that these relationships can absolutely be genuine, but I also know the dynamic is different from traditional dating.
So I wanted to ask those with experience: would you recommend this kind of relationship for someone in my position? Or would you advise sticking to more conventional dating apps and relationships instead? And if so, do you have any recommendations on where to find genuine age-gap connections?
I hope this isn’t a dumb question, or that people haven’t asked this a ton.
Thank you all in advance for your/any thoughts! :)
