so I’m 28 on my last year of college (had some life shit happen inbetween + surgery etc etc is what it is).
Normally hasn’t been much of an issue for me but last week go to the bars w my friends. Towards end of night this one chick started gravitating towards me and wanted to leave w me; her friend (who is literally friends w some of us and was talking to me earlier) pulls her back “ew stop he’s 28” and it was RIP -____-
On one end I get it; I’m 28 def not supposed to be in college still. And next year when I finally grad and go off into the real world it’ll be completely irrelevant (and lowkey prob in my favor). I also don’t look anywhere near my age esp when I shave.
Any tips on navigating this kinda shit? Even tinder or OLD if I set my age to say 22 or 23 (and put “not 22/23” in my bio) same pics will get hundreds and hundreds of matches; whereas if I list my actual age I’ll get like 2-3 matches and the chicks available to swipe on are all crusty hoes.
I’m in a college town in a flyover state.

A) That chick was into you until her friend interfered. That's why you initiate, isolate, and escalate.
B) if that happens again before you get a chance to isolate, have fun and play with it. It's an opportunity to show that you're unflappable. Try a little Agree & Amplify.
"Yeah, I'm 28! I was hoping she'd help me pick my nursing home as I wait to die!"
C) I'm 44, and I catch women ranging from as young as teenagers all the way through 50-something checking me out (I'm married and faithful (for now), so I never do more than flirt to maintain my abundance mentality). Most women won't worry about your age; they'll only worry what their friends think. Your job is to fuck them so well that they stop caring.

Pick my nursing home had me laughin; I gotta use that next time.
Right smv and all that good stuff. I play on both ends of the age spectrum lol generally 21-40+. I guess the issue at hand is more the “what their friends will think” part of being 21 in college hookin up w a 28yo in college

It's called intra-sexual competition. That chick is competition so the other chick disqualified you. Women will say all kinds of things: too old, too young, probably gay, an incel, etc.

Makes sense; she was definitely the less attractive of the pair

I have the opposite experience. I look at least 7 years younger than I am, and when they find out, they are even more attracted. I'm 30 and still get fuck me eyes from young chicks. A milf I met on vacation last summer though I was underage lmaoo. A retard clerk almost called the cops on me thinking I used a fake id to buy alcohol when I was in US..
In your example, it's just a case of cockblock. Don't give a fuck about OLD. If you get more matches, set whatever age you want. When she asks about it, tell her to guess. It's all about your SMV.

Right ok actually same boat; I also have a major case of baby face can easily pass for 21 or under haha. It’s just known in my social circle really that I’m 28 instead of 21/etc.
One of my ex plates gives me a lot of shit for going out n getting w/ 21yo chicks ig that plus the cockblock kinda got under my skin

Baby face here too, I can't even grow a full beard and I get ID carded often. I'm not playing it to my strength and sport the clean shave look. From my limited experience broski, there are two types of girls (no matter their age), those that like you and those that do not. Don't bother with the latter one, you are way better than this.

I think she could've said anything to cockblock you. She could've been jealous she didnt have a 30 year old interested in her. Dont let it affect frame

My girlfriend is turning 21, I'm turning 30.
Also also in a college town. Depending which source you take for Fly Over States. I'm also in one.
Never been an issue, as other have said it's been a benefit. Women dig older guys, guys dig sub 25yo women for their beauty.
