Is it normal that i love a man 50 years older than me in a romantic way?

I am 19 and he is 69. Ever since I was 10, I discovered a man that was 50 years older than me. I fell for him and I've never been able to look at anyone else the same way. I've tried dating, but neither gender makes me feel the way I do with him. I've completely dropped dating, knowing that if I can't be with him, I'd rather be with no one. My friends think something is wrong with me and think I should seek therapy. I think it's normal and that I'm entitled to love who I want. We've had multiple fights, with them even calling me a freak. I don't understand what's wrong with my love, so I'd like outside opinions.

    Nope. Not normal at all. His dick might not even fucking work and he'll prolly be dead before your 30. Have you thought this out long term? I mean your not a freak for liking him but that big of age gap could really fuck some shit up.

        Me : gives outside opinion

        You : mind your own business.

        Are you new here? The comment section is where we share our opinions. I want OP to think this through more carefully. And I stated why. This is very much my buisness!

    You are just romanticizing the fuck out of the situation. You are 19 you are still a teenager. Try being awkward for ten more years before trying to settle for far less.

    Love has no limits.

    If you are both happy together, tell the haters to go "fuck themselves".
