What should you do if older guys look at you a lot and you're frustrated because you're only 17 years old?

It sounds as if you are an attractive girl so men of all ages look at attractive girls. As long as they look and don't touch then I wouldn't worry about it and take it as a compliment. However, I think you are well aware of what is going on and you may have a way of flirting with men because young women find it titillating and like the power it yields. Young women assume that a married man will just look and not go any further because they are married. Don't bet on it! You could get yourself into some real trouble. I am sure there are lots of guys your own age or a couple of years older than you that also find you attractive so this tells me a lot. Why aren't you worried about that and so worried about older men looking at you!
