Does the difference in ages with your partner really
matter? Or am I just old fashioned. Being a fairly active woman in my mid 40s I
was surprised when my cousin said she would like to introduce me to “guy a
little older than” me. I was quick to
ask how much older. Well he is in his
60s.
I really do not know about all of you but two decades seems
an awfully big difference in ages for my comfort. He would, in my little world, be old enough
to be my dad. I know some women like a “mature
man” but since that whole women mature early than men sort of level out between
30 and 40 years of age.
You see here is how I see it, I am in my 40s and finally I really
know who I am. And finally feel that I
have earned the freedom not to be inhibited by any stereotypes nor do I feel
pressure to fit in. I finally feel I can
enjoy my life and I have 20 years within which to do so. Now if I were to latch myself to a man
nearing 70s isn’t that defeatist somehow?
He is entering his sunset and I am right bang in the middle of my day –
how can we run together at the same pace?
