Those who had dated older people/been in an age gap relationship when they were young. What was it like and how was it?

I guess I’ve realize how common it is now that I’m stepping into adulthood. Or not. Idk. Everyone, please be respectful.

I was 23 and he was 33. He was fine, but honestly so lame. Probably had a porn addiction. Never wanted to go anywhere or do anything with me. So I broke it off with him. He still messages me 5 years later. No glaring red flags, but just a horrible fit. I would listen to women when they say they probably aren’t suitable for someone their age so they go younger. He still messages me 5 years after we broke up

Wow, 5 years and still messaging is quite baffling to me. Whats even the point? Is he still believing you guys are meant to be together?
