Leonardo DeCaprio dating 19 year old girl - creepy, or are older women just jealous?

Ooo. A test! You got me! I admit it, I come back to threads I post in sometimes to respond. How embarrassing!

Gainfully employed, married, 31 years old, better PRs than you! Posting from the basement... of the house that I own. Sorry to disappoint you!

Why?

They are both adults and both know what they are getting into. Successful men like younger woman...it's been this way since the dawn of time. Nothing wrong with this.

I find it fascinating the way folks judge celebrities lives and relationships. Their lives are anything but 'normal' yet folks want to judge them as if they are.

Do you honestly think 'dating' for Leo is anything like it is for anyone on this message board? All this 'what will they talk about?' etc.. At his level of fame he must have a huge social circle, any girl he dates probably has access to all kinds of wealth they couldnt have imagined. Just these things alone make their lives including what being in a relationship even looks like completely different than a normal relationship.

Wow!..when you were "60" & a 28 yr old asked you out?!? (How old are you now?).

Was she attractive? And what was your deal: Were/are you a good looking jacked dude or something? How about $$$ - was that factor?

You've got to elaborate on this! Being 60 & hit on by 28 yr old, single mom or not, is impressive!

Good post.

I also worry about the social skills of the adults who carry on about "what will they talk about???" It's pretty easy to hold conversations with those who come from different life experiences than you. In fact, those differences are precisely what makes lots of conversations interesting! And then those interesting points of differences are often underscored by deeper overlaps of the human condition - why, yes, we are different in regards to X, Y, and Z, but at a more fundamental level....

What is wrong with you people that you can't connect with those who don't have an identical backstory?

Its like they think they are sitting at home arguing about what to eat and watch on Netflix.

And I agree. It also seems fairly obvious Leo is not looking to 'settle down' and is probably looking for entirely different type of relationship than a traditional one.

When my friend was 16 he wrote down the more than 200 times he balled his girlfriend. While still 16, his new girlfriend insisted that they exceed that number asap. There is no replacement for this POV.

This is the type of stuff that pisses me off. He's dating such a young sexy lady. Meanwhile fastboy over here, who is leagues above DiCaprio, can't score any b itches. Life ain't fair. I deserve Eden Paloni.

DiCaprio has a history of never dating women over the age of 25. He's personifies this line from Dazed & Confused:

"That's what I love about these high school girls, man. I get older, they stay the same age."

don't kinkshame, chud.

So, the alternative is then to date women that have hit the wall, have high body counts, all tattooed up, fully indoctrinated in feminism & with a kid or two in tow. Lol

I am not a celebrity but in some instances a high status male. I have dated three females 8 to 12 years younger than me and even though that is not as drastic as Leo, I have caught backlash from some parties. While these relationships eventually took their toll (slight social problems), there are many happy memories from them both. I stress it wouldnt have mattered if they were ~10 years younger or ~5 years older, I liked them as human beings. I genuinely liked them at one point in time and especially enjoyed encouraging their distance running. Distance running is a strong commonground.

Surely I can't be the only one on LRC who thinks there's more going with DiCaprio and his 3+ decades of supposed girlfriends than meets the eye.

I've always assumed that the bevy of young women who've served as "arm candy" for Leo on a revolving-door basis for his whole adult life are all paid "beards" hired under contract to make the world believe the myth that Leo's a world-class "ladies' man" deserving of the title of his 1997 biography, "Leonardo DiCaprio: Modern Day Romeo."

Behind the scenes, rumors have circulated for years that Leo's true love is his longtime companion Lukas Haas. Those two have been joined at the hip since they began living together in the mid-late 1990s.

In the 30 years since the extremely-talented Mr DiCaprio's screen career first started to take off in the early 1990s, DiCaprio and the leams of professional image-managers behind and around him have succeeded in carrying out a carefully-crafted PR campaign to convince the wold that Leo is not just a stud, but he's an exclusively straight stud too.

Of course, many people have thought all along that whole thing is a tad too over-the-top to be credible. Even in the 1990s, the whole "pxssy posse" schtick that Leo and his guy pals put on came off in some people's eyes as evidence that they were trying too way too hard to create a particular impression.

Then there's the ever-changing cast of alleged girlfriends who've been parading in and out of Leo's life like clockwork for 30 years now. Does no one else wonder why all these young women suddenly appear on the scene in Leo's life with predictable regularity, then just as predictably exit stage left after a set time of relatively short duration?

Does no one else wonder why in more than three decades, Leo's supposed shagging of large numbers of nubile young women has not resulted in any progeny? AFAICT, none of DiCaprio's putative female bed partners appear to have gotten pregnant by him, much less given birth and filed a paternity suit against him. Given how Uber-wealthy, powerful and world-famous the man is, it seems odd that not a single woman in Leo's life has seen fit to claim that he's the daddy of their "love child."

Surely I can't be the only one here who suspects Leo and his supposed lady loves are putting on a charade scripted and directed by some of tinsel town's finest. Or does everyone truly believe that at nearly 50 years of age, Leonardo DiCaprio really is a "modern-day Romeo" who for some mysterious reason just can't find love with a woman that manages to last beyond a brief time?

I don’t know why people are so surprised. Pretty sure the stones and all those old rock bands were banging groupies MUCH younger than 19.

The women at Lipstick Alley are of like mind with me about Leo and Lukas.

I get what you're saying here, but it's not the same as someone who holds a job over another person's head. She's free to date old DiCaprio if she wants to. He's free to date 19 year olds if he wants to. Makes him a fool and shows he's immature, but it's not abuse.

Only 3 years east of being legal. 2.5 times his age. Not good.

Can't reply to the OP, does this mean I was locked out?

Anyway they were pictured together because that's what the media wants. Leo is not dating or doing the 19 year old. Enjoy your fantasy .
