Do older men still develop crushes and fantasize?

I have a crush on the handyman for my apartment. He’s fixed some things in my unit in the past and is kind, professional and so attractive to me even though he’s not your typical hot guy.

I see him on site from time to time, and even if he’s doing work, we always stop to say hello and have brief small talk. Sometimes, I’ll flirt a bit and he conservatively flirts back. I get the vibe that he seems to enjoy the attention and I think it might be because he’s older, kinda balding, not necessarily hot, and has a bit of a dad bod.

I fantasize about him all the time. Kissing him, dating him, holding him, and... you know. Multiple times a day I think of him. This might be a silly question, but given his age and experience, is he even fantasizing about me the same way? He’s 45 and has adult children... I wonder if men that age are over that phase of crushing on girls and don’t really care.

I haven’t asked but maybe he’s married given his age, but even if he’s a loyal husband, do they still fantasize about other women the frequency I fantasize about him? I guess I just wish I knew if I’m alone in my secret fantasizing because part of me wishes I knew what’s on his mind or if he even thinks about me.

  • He may fantasize about you due to your age, but I highly doubt he'll want to date you for the same reason.

  • of course, age doesn't make any difference

  • Yes he very well could be fantasizing. If you want anything with him, you will have to make a move, he won't because of his job

    • Very true!! Thank you!!

  • That is an easy one to answer, yes, i am 64 and I Still do

    • Haha nice. How often would you say they think about the woman they’re attracted to? Is it possible he thinks about me multiple times a day like I do?

  • Don't shy away, if you ever tell him , I can guarantee you, this gonna change your life, just do it

  • yes they do

  • Ohhh God bless you. You will find your love

  • i am probably older than him and yes we do still fantasize about sex. he might need extra pushing, if he thinks you are just teasing

  • Hell yes, I'm 65 and still have fantasies and get crushes.
    This can be awkward as it I'm flirting with a girl I have to readjust an erection.

    • Haha!! Thank you

  • Yes, I think we all do.

  • Men his age can certain have feelings for a pretty young female like yourself. I would guess that he has fantasized about it at different times

    • Thank you!!

  • I’m 50 and I definitely still fantasize about women. Pretty much every day.

    • Haha nice!

  • Yes, the attention of a younger female will always be a thrill.
    If he is married, he will still enjoy the idea of a younger female.
    If he is single, He would totally be interested but likely not say anything out of fear of being considered a creep.

  • Yes. Men. Do. They do so at any age. Don't underestimate how easy it is for a woman to seduce a male by flattering him with female attention, He would notice your extra attention too, though he may or may not recognize it as sexual.
    I would be flattered if a younger woman paid attention to me. Now, whether I'd like to get involved or not, is another matter. Especially as it could have implications (on family life, long term investment, etc)... It all depends on how one sees it, I guess.

    • Thank you for the time and response!!

  • Of course we do , you should find out if he is married if you want to pursue him

  • I still do.

    • How often would you say they think about the woman they’re attracted to? Is it possible he thinks about me multiple times a day like I do?

    • I think about women who I am attracted to most of the day. Though I am single so I don't have a wife or girlfriend to fill this part of my mind.

    • If he does have a wife, will he not be thinking of me much at all?
