Some of the younger men that I have dated have been either scared, intimidated, or jealous of me. Unfortunately, people compare themselves to what others have (money, success, etc.). It really should be about a person's character, maturity, values. We love the person for who they are, not for how large their bank account is.
At my previous work I met a Brazilian woman who was 40 and I fell in love with her and we started talking and did let het know bit by bit that I love her and she was actually open to the idea of us being in a relationship and all that, she even asked my if I was into marriage and family to which I said yes. But the problem was that she wasn't planning to stay in the country and ended up going back to Brazil so she said that she would love to but if we got together it would hurt us because we would have to split not long after that because she had to return to Brazil. I was so heartbroken I cried on that night and couldn't focus on work :( We're still friends and talk every now and again but I don't know how I'd ever have a chance with her again :(
Sounds like she's very committed to living in her home country. The only hope for you would be to visit on a routine basis and perhaps see if it's a country you may want to live in as well. But that would really be a question for "you." You would have to love the country, love the people, and have viable work there before you could make a leap so grand.
I seriously think you would be wise to grieve the loss and move on…. I know it’s not easy to let go of the dream. Very painful. But you can do it, and likely will look back and really be glad you did.
Susan, thankfully I had a woman working with me that weekend and the curls stayed in place! I definitely need a glam squad because left on my own I can't always replicate the look. Thanks for the wonderful comment
Hey thank you for that. I do get younger men asking me how to date and sometimes they ask me questions that are quite explicit which I will not answer. Not my area of expertise. But mostly the men that I work with who are in love with an older woman are very sincere and truly seeking a deeper connection
I really appreciate reading this. Thank you so much for your support. At the time that older women younger men was written, nobody else was talking about it. It was considered "shameful" to admit you had a much younger partner. Fortunately we have come out of the dark ages of discrimination as far as age gap relationships. Thank you for your positive support please know that it's greatly appreciated
Hello, I listened today. I have not ever been with a younger person early, late, 20,s, 30, 40,. So I tried playing around and it was OK. Not my thing. I like older women. Iam 54. Depends on person spirit. Taking T complicates things a hormone and like a teenager all over again. Been tapering off a little. Not so intense feelings.
