    It’s true, I’ve watched this documentary about this woman in her twenties who dumped Leo after being in an dysfunctional relationship with him.

    I think it’s called “The Wolf of Wall Street” or something.

    As a man it was in my mid twenties I realized he’s a good actor and not just a teenage heartthrob.

    I hated him when I was a kid. Later I realized him getting all the girls doesn’t mean he’s a bad guy.

    It was when I watched The Island that I first realized he’s a good actor.

      Nobody said anything about his acting. This is about him never dating anyone over 25.

          Ah, I figured you thought you were on-topic (that the original post was somehow critical of his acting?), not on a tangent. My mistake.

        Oh you’re right I was thinking of Mike Myers in Wayne’s World

        Hey Mister Donut Head Man who’s trying to kill ya?

        I don’t know but they better not!

      Confidentially missed the point.

      I agree, he is a good actor. But he is also a sleezebag who only dates models half his age and consistently dumps them when they turn 25.

      Even though I respect his work, I have no respect for him as a person anymore.

      Same as a ten young adult I didn’t think much of him. As I got older I realized just how good he is as an actor.

    Yeah, but it still doesn’t explain why he’s never dated (since he was 25) a woman his own age.

    Or I guess he’s just an instant bore to anyone who has life experience? That seems possible.

    If I was a rich Megastar I too would use my status and money to date beautiful young women

      I very much wouldn’t. I’m not interested in the kinds of things a young trophy wife is going to offer. I think being a rich megastar would be bad for my dating game, because it would attract all the wrong people.

          I’m in my 30’s too and teach at university and train a lot of staff in their early 20s at work. 20s really seems like and extension of teenage years to me now. I would feel like I’m dating someone underage.

    I don’t find it funnier, but that’s my honest opinion. Know why? Because there’s nothing ‘objective’ about it.

    Why do people like to fuck these words up?

      People like to spice their words up. Take the literal stick out your hypothetical hole.

    Every woman coincidentally dumps him at 25 because they just reached enlightenment all at the same age? No, he dumps them because he is writing his own lore.
