I know that I am old enough to make my own decisions but having my family support me is a huge deal for me. I am 26 and just recently separated from by husband of 6 years. We hhave 2 children 31/2 and 18 months.

When my youngest son was hositalized this past winter, we had a super docor who spent many hours with me and my son. Just a few months ago we ran into each other and we ended up going ou for coffee. Since then we have been spending every day togeher. The thing is he is 39yrs old. I want him to meet my family but I dont know how they will react o the age difference or he fact that I found someone new. How do I get them to accept everything.

I'm pretty sure they'll want you to be happy and not expect you to be a nun forever.

Hint to the family member you are closest too that you might have met someone new. They should see from the smile on your face that you are happy again.

Let the gossip spread and then if the reaction is good, explain how you bumped into your son's doctor and you've been dating ever since.

Good Luck!! xx
