38 year old man and 18 year old girl?

my associate is dating a 38 year old man. she'll be 19 in about two weeks but i feel like he is too old for her and using her. i cant tell her that because she will get upset like most girls do and think someone is judging her. but in most of her relationships i've known the outcome but i've had to let her find out for herself. well she's been with this guy for about a month, they keep having unprotected sex and he tells her he doesnt want a child right now and she should get on birth control. she says he is mature but he isnt since he said he doesnt want a child then keeps having unprotected sex with her.now he changes his mind and says he will give her a baby. he said he would get her something for christmas but didnt. now he says he'll take her to nc when he gets tires on his truck. but on chrtismas night he had her no gift but took her to a motel and had sex with her. that makes me think he is clearly using her.i think this whole relationship is fake. his oldest son is 17 and if i was 38 with three kids that could do certain things for themselves i wouldnt want to start all over again, and im 18 and clearly dont want a relationship with someon that old. i want her to stop letting guys use her but she gets mad when people tell her the truth. is he using her?

Update:

since he took her out to eat that really had her thinking he wants her but it wasnt expensive at all since he has a job. i just hate how men this old use young girls.

    Don't lose your control over the situation. You run the risk of losing your job and your professional reputation. You are an authority figure and that is the double edged sword here. All she has to say now is that "He kissed me." And all of that authority and professional reputation that you have worked so hard for is gone because of an 18 year old girl. What she sees in you is a stable mature man. You can't fault a girl for that, but you can tell her as long as she is under your tutelage that it will be strictly professional. Don't lose everything, clean up this situation right now. She is simply playing a game with you, she is playing Villi and you are playing Mary Kay Letourneau. Or she just plain has daddy issues. You should interpret these events by resorting to reading about behaviors described in scholarly and peer reviewed publications. In this case I would equate your curiosity to someone asking how does it feel to touch a high voltage power line--it is a mistake that you only get to make once.

    I can't blame the guy. As men get older the urge to bone an 18 year old girl increases. There's nothing like having it in her and hovering over her thinking about all the men her age that could be there. That is a fantasy that will never go away in any man. Never!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Tell her parents. He's probably the same age as her parents. It's bad. Tell her guys will have sex with you even if they don't love you, you are a free prostitute. Look for a guy that actually will love you and that will marry you. Don't have sex with anybody. You're looking for love in the wrong way. Having sex with someone doesn't make them fall in love with you. You need to spend time, and become best friends with the guy to the point where you won't be able to live without him. With no sex. Tell her to stop having sex and start looking for love. Sex is not love.

    It sounds like he's using her. Unfortunately, there are men your own age who will do the same. It's not so easy to pick out the "dirty old man" because some men are always users and some go through stages of their own hurt where they disregard women's feelings. She's just go to live and learn. He sounds like a major loser, yes ... hopefully she'll figure this out sooner than later. Just be supportive of her (not the relationship, but her personally) and urge her to get on the pill so she's not stuck with this piece of trash's child.

    Yeah, it's certainly not good. I would never date a woman 20 years younger. It's just not right in my book. She needs to be with someone closer to her own age. If this guy was giving her everything she needed in the relationship and was good to her then perhaps fair enough. Still, I'm not a fan of big age difference relationships. Five years is the absolute max for me.

    Tell your friend that's going to end up bad. To think about the future, When he's 50 and she's 20 something or thirty would she want that? Plus that could be her dad. It's totally wrong.

    They understand you crazy females better than most of us guys in our 20's ever can, so i'm not hating on the older man. I think he should keep it up.

    You know how long it takes for us guys to actually understand females? Lol he deserves whatever he gets from your friend, he probably knows exactly what to say, and i'm looking forward to being that age and still picking up 18 year old girls.

    Ew, that's really gross. He's way to old for her.

    And he's definitely using her. It's pretty obvious.

    But if you try to help her, and all she does is get mad and wont listen, then there's really nothing that you can do about it. She'll just have to find out on her own, and yes. She'll be upset. But hey, she should have listened to you. Ya know?
