Dating and Starting Relationships • ameliamadelyn • 12d ago

Am I being judgmental towards a 36-year-old man who has no dating experience?

Recently, I met someone new, and after spending a short time getting to know him, I discovered he has no previous relationship experience. In contrast, I've been in relationships since I was 21. This difference in experience concerns me, and his lack of familiarity is making me feel uneasy. Am I being unreasonable? Additionally, I haven't dated many guys who have treated me well, so I'm making an effort to seek out different types of guys than I usually do.

Are your concerns about his lack of dating experience based on personal preferences or assumptions about his character?

It's natural to feel concerned about experience differences, but it's important to approach the situation with an open mind. Judging someone solely on their dating history can hinder potential connections. Focus on his qualities and communication, rather than just experience. Everyone has their own journey.

It's natural to feel uneasy about someone's lack of dating experience, especially when you have a different background. However, being judgmental may overlook potential strengths he brings. Consider focusing on his qualities and how you connect instead of just his past. Everyone's journey is different.
