Older man younger woman

This may sound a tad biased but I think there's usually - not always - a difference between say a relationship between a 40 year old man and a 17 year old girl, and a 40 year old woman with a 25 year old young man. A 17 year old girl is in no way an adult, moreover there is something creepy and exploitative about an older man targeting underage girls from the third world. I'm sorry to say but I have no sympathy for these kinds of people - they aren't looking for love, they're looking for someone to submit to them, a trophy if you will.

ANY kind of older man is going to experience some form of drama when dating a teenage girl, it usually comes with the package. I really empathise with a lot of the women on this board, who were genuinely looking for love, but were instead duped by highly skilled conmen. But in some cases, like this one, both parties need to accept responsibility for the outcome and stop viewing people as fancy foreign cars.
