I’m a 20-year-old woman and I’ve noticed a weird pattern every time I really like a guy after the first date, if he’s over 25 (especially 27 for some reason), he ghosts me after the first or second date.
The dates are surface-level fun — no heavy talks, no drama — and I’m comfortable with them. Everything feels like it’s going great. Then… boom, I never hear from them again.
It’s not like I’m coming on strong or pushing for commitment — I’m just genuinely having a good time. I’m starting to wonder if I give off some “too young/clingy” vibe without realizing it, or if it’s just about their intentions from the start.
Why do older guys do this?
I’m deadass confused
Like does it do with the age or shit because it’s always the ones who are esp 27
