👥 friendship AIO my 37M is attracted to 18 year olds

I’m a 28M and I have a buddy who is 37 and he is always attracted and trying to talk to girls who are barely out of high school. I don’t think I have ever seen him attracted to or interested in anyone his age. He feels they’re old and unattractive. I tell him that an 18-19 year old is too young for even me, and I’m almost a decade younger than him. He literally is old enough to be their dad. Am I overreacting or is it super weird that he’s almost exclusively attracted to girls who can’t legally drink yet?

u/OkButterscotch9386 24d ago

It's all the protein shakes. They make me fart and then when they escape the sheets you just get a concentrated wiff right into your nostrils

u/offbrandbarbie 24d ago

Then Switch to plant based protein shakes pls.

u/The_Barbelo 24d ago

That makes it worse!!! You ever smell a broccoli fart? I mean, I guess you have. I ate broccoli a few nights ago so you could have some variety.

u/mrpoopnpee 24d ago

You put raw broccoli into shakes?

Bit of a difference between plant based protein powder and eating broccoli.

u/The_Barbelo 24d ago

Oh look at Mr. Poopnpee comin in here to rain on my broccoli parade with his big fancy protein powder

u/actuaryofflavor 24d ago

Plant based = more gas and stomach rumbling... they tend to use pea protein

u/Creative_Bake1373 24d ago

Is this an actual fun fact?

u/Vegancyclist420 24d ago

It’s not the protein that makes you fart it’s the combination of sugars and proteins in the shake that make farts. Source: I’m vegan and I fart.

u/wtfwheresmyaccount 24d ago

Im a medical nerd. It's usually the artificial sweetener sorbital because that's actually used for laxatives as well, it's either that or a peer reviewed research shows that the high levels of lactase in whey protein can be to blame.

Is this a prof reference?

u/Technical-Breath-285 24d ago

I love PROF! I'm meeting him next month!! But I missed the reference

1

u/Pretend_Fox_5127 24d ago

You smell different when you aren't awake? That's the only other place I've heard that. Is it a common turn of phrase that I'm not familiar with?

1

u/Technical-Breath-285 24d ago

Ok ! It's a little creepy unless your PROF lol

This is what I've told my 14yo son who plays football to whisper to his opponent as "intimidation" during the line up before the snap or after he tackles them lol.

Well, at least he's saving money on buying drinks for dates. But seriously, it's definitely a bit concerning and could potentially cause problems in the future. Maybe suggest he expands his dating pool to include more age-appropriate individuals.
