Richard Madden (Robb Stark in GOT)

Richard has money, is famous, conventionally good-looking, masculine-presenting. He can get any type of person he wants. So, it is a bit cringe-y that he’s in his mid 30s and have had two relationships in a row with two guys in their early 20s. I do get finding kind of off-putting. However, at least (as far as we know) he isn’t hooking up with teenagers. While he is seemingly having real relationships and investing in them as opposed to using young guys for sex and ego and then dipping. The people who are so “disgusted” with him also have to ask themselves if he was in a two year relationship with a 23 year old chick would they still be so turned off by him.
 
I don't get the issue with their age differences. First off, it's not THAT big of an age difference, and it's not like this sort of this isn't insanely common in the gay community. I personally have the same age difference with my BF and we've been together for three years strong now. Just be happy for them
 
There’s definitely a decent difference between a dude in his early 20s and a dude in his mid 30s. And just because something is “common” doesn’t mean it’s cute. But I do agree that it’s not really a big deal. Froy is still grown. While if you don’t like it/it’s too big of turn-off, you don’t have to support or pay attention. And as I said, it’s not as if Richard is out here collecting a harem of dudes in their teens and early twenties and using them and parading them around (like some guys in the industry). He seems to be genuinely investing. There’s no need to hate.
 
How can I be Richard's next twink?
I suppose the most interesting thing will be no-one that is age appropriate will likely ever trust him since he shows a liking for the young ones.
A bit of how long will I be around when the 20 year old pool boy shows up on the doorstep answering Dickies job ad.
He's kind of stuck with twinks. Some will think that aint a bad thing, of course. The maturity gap will widen more as he gets older and he'll have nothing much in common with them except the sex. Again, some will think that aint a bad thing.

Still unable to unwatch?

Richard and everyone currently:

Richard is on a beach, at a family resort with his boyfriend and his parents!!! That doesn't look like he's trying to find another twink! Get over it, they're in an exclusive, mature relationship!
Honestly, I think he is writing about the importance of age appropriate relationship here because he hopes Richard reads this forum and will finally ask him out... He is obsessed with Richard! (please read this will all the sarcastic tone I meant to imbue this message with)
 
So if Richard was 60 and Froy was 50, would people still be accusing him of robbing the cradle?

People really need to get over their petty prejudices.
My grandfather is 81 and my grandmother is 70... he is such a perv and I told him!

All this shade is not necessary. The dynamic makes me slightly uncomfortable. But Froy is hardly a kid, and he’s not even really a twink. Hell, he could pass for being older than what he is. While if they’ve been together for a couple of years and vacationing with each other parents, it’s unlikely mostly about sex. I don’t know about them being “mature” or “exclusive”. (We don’t know these people). But ultimately, it’s their lives, and they’re both grown. And didn’t you say you were no longer interested in Richard and this thread?
