Also, if he’s past 25 and isn’t good at sex, he’s not going to suddenly have a revelation and become a good lover.

I've only met women who have continued to grow as people later in life

True. Even before age 25, people don't typically do a 180.

I liken the human brain developing by age 25 to baking a cake. The years leading up to 25 are the last few minutes when you bake a cake, when you insert a toothpick in the cake and realize it's not done yet. So you leave it in the oven for 5-10 more minutes, and then it's done. It's not like the brain does so much development, and changes so much, that you shop for the groceries, mix the wet and dry, bake the cake from the beginning. That level of brain development is genetic and/or established before age 5.

The human brain doesn't FINISH developing by 25, you don't grow a new brain at 25. Or at any age.

This is why I'm grateful for my husband. He is continually open to growth and learning new things, and he's been that way since before we got married. It's who he is. He genuinely wants to learn and improve upon himself.

Also explains why so many scrotes strictly go for women of 25 years and under, despite being older and way older themselves. They are attracted to underdevelopment and can usually bullshit and convince young women to put trust in them and risk so much with no reward. 23 and 26 year olds don't differ much from each other in physical appearance, but the mental development differences, especially in conscious decision making unclouded by hormones and emotions can be stark as night and day. So much so, that I'd be all for making 25 the new age of consent if one of the partners is at least few years older and taking advantage of their partner's undercooked frontal lobe. That's just wrong in so many ways.

Any date-appropriate aged person showing a red flag should be tossed in the garbage bin.

Only caveat is someone that goes from drugs or alcohol to clean/sober.

Better off finding ways to lower your reportable income.

Does this mean that one day my 19 year old boyfriend may still learn how to talk about his feelings?

pszemoi · 2020-04-26T17:13:49+00:00

Do I cut him off or try to dig in and ask for explanation first for”red flag” I notice? I really like him and not want to make a mistake

I dated an 18 year old and he was a great person. Upon meeting his parents I understood why. I also recently dated a 25 year old who's a shithead. It's not really a matter of age. You can tell that someone's gonna be an absolute prick even when they're young teenagers.
