Is it normal to want attention from much older women?

I am a 20 year old girl and I really like it when women in their 30s or 40s like me as a friend. It's so flattering for some reason. Not sure why this is. I feel like there is probably some really interesting psychological reason behind it.

    I go through the same here.. How is your relationship with your mum? Sometimes people search for what they don't have.. I mean if your mum isn't that mature or has some problems, maybe this is a reason why you want to communicate with older women.(I have read this on a book) My mum drinks a lot and sometimes she becomes another person very immature, and I've been always want to keep in touch with older women. I have thought I am a lesbian too but I think I must go to a psychologist and find out ! :)

      Yeah, I thought this might have something to do with my mom. But I also think it has to do with my childhood. I got bullied as a child (by my peers) and I think that maybe I like much older women is because they are less likely to make fun of me if I do something weird. They might even find my weirdness "cute".

      Think about it this way. If I am hanging out with a 20 year old girl and I do something or say something weird, she might be like "wtf, Sam is a freak." but if I act weird around a much older woman, she might find it endearing.

      Idk maybe I don't know what I am talking about.

  • May be you like them for their experience and conversations? Most young people are shallow.

  • Yes, it happens when you get sick of stupid teens and try to find more mature people to communicate with.

      well I dont like to call people stupid, but I don't mind calling someone immature.

      I don't think this is just about maturity though. Because I also like older women who are immature.
