Hi! I'm new & I guess am happy to see that there are others like me out there.
To be honest, never in a million years could I have seen this happening to me. I am the younger woman & we have a 20 yr gap(my OM & me). I am 25.
I am here because upon having returned from a holiday, we have fallen in love & pretty hard at that. It's not your typical relationship though. We worked at the same company but at different overseas' offices (I have recently left to work at a partner firm). We live in different countries although he is really fortunate that his work requires him to travel 80% of the month & he has managed to make sure we spend close to a week during each month, together (altho our holiday was the best cos we had two weeks together). We also come from different cultures altho people don't see it (until we speak & then our accents are different).
But then, there are the reasons why we are together.....
Age aside, my OM & I have very similar characteristics. We remain guarded & only open up to select few in our lifes. To others, we are a mystery - we are chatty people on the surface but they know that we are private people(more than ur average) as well.
And most importantly, we definitely have a connection between us. In the short months that we have been together, we think & say the same things a lot of times which often makes us break out in laughter. It's freaky but sometimes we just look at each other & we know what we're thinking!
Earlier, I'd refer to us as the 'unreal world' that I could escape to. But now that we are in love, I'm starting to analyse things way too much like the fact that he has kids, that our lives are separate. I tell myself to just be happy even if tis lasts 3, 6mths......
Ok, i know I've rattled on for quite a bit but I'd luv to hear abt similar experiences etc. I really just chanced upon the site & thought that it could be some sort of release for me as not many people know of my OM & I.
