I've often received some very sweet PMs from members here and at other sites, thanking me for advice I've given on how to keep an OW/YM relationship going strong. That's been such an awesome thing to hear and, since I've been officially dabbling in writing for a while now, I finally decided to put the little snippets together into an article!
Please have a read, leave a comment and, of course, if you have any additions you think I need to make, please, please let me know!

very good. although i sometimes LIKE to act like i am 19, it's one of the perks.
adam came up with a NEW pet name for me, "his little girl" now heck, i am 20 years older, but it touched me so much, so sweet.
i like your rules very much, they are going to help many people like me who stumbled into this site or a age gap relationship not knowing the forest from the trees.
GOOD JOB!

LOL -- sometimes acting like you're 19 purely because life is good is entirely different and (in my opinion) perfectly okay! I used to say I was immature for my age (before meeting Tim) until a friend corrected me and said I have "a youthful energy that others find enviable." What a good thing it was for me to hear such a positive view of something I always saw as a character flaw!
By the way, I love that avatar, too -- GORGEOUS!

Nice job, Kelly!
Short, sweet and to-the-point!
The only addition I can think of is to maybe add the names of a few notable historical figures who had successful OW/YM relationships.
For perspective, it might be nice to remind some folks that this type of relationship is nothing new at all, and that our ancestors were pursuing these relationships a very long time ago.
I think either Voltaire or Rousseau are examples, just to toss out a name.
