Hello, I am new to this site, but have been looking for someone to share my experiences with. I am 40 woman and I am dating a 21 year old man. At first I didnt think our age difference mattered, and I really dont look 40,but we have been getting alot of comments about us being mother and son. Mostly at a resturant or at a check out line. It is really starting to bother me. We have been dating for a year now,but have known each other for almost 2 years. We are in love, and he is the first relationship since my 20 year marriage fell apart. At first nothing mattered, but now we are living together and I get to see the real 21 year old..if that makes sense...This just seems all to hard. I guess I am used to an "old fuddy duddy" now there is excitement and he really and truely loves me...he is super affectionate...something I havent had for 20 years. Tells me all the time he adores me and he is VERY proud to have me on his arm. But he is not financially stable and somewhat niave in the relationship department..SEE..he has never had a relationship before myself. I cant understand why, because he is increddibly "HOT". BUT, he is a "hopeless" romantic. I found it hard that I was his first relationship, but it is 100% true. Anyhow...does anyone else have a situation like mine and can relate? I really want this to work,but there are sooo many bugs that need to be worked out. CAN THEY BE WORKED OUT? Am I ready to start all over again...that lines means sooo much in so many different aspects..lol!!!! but its true. Any sugestions would be sooo very welcomed. Thanks for taking the time to read this..
