Dear Anonymous,

Let me tell you the truth. I am 28 years younger than my boyfriend. Our relationship started when I was a teenager and when he was in his early 40s. At first he was merly flattered by my attention, and then grew to fall in love with me. Because it seemed so unlikley that we would ever "fall in love," getting close was easier. I saw keep a sharp eye out. Men are stupid and "fall in love" all the time. Yes he may be flattered by the 17 year old, but slapping on the ass? That's a clear come on? Keep an eye on your guy. Seriously. Keep that shit in check and make him love you all over again so that he doesn't wonder away.

DrPsych agony auntIf he is telling the truth then it is just mid-life crisis stuff...he is a middle aged man who is flattered that a teenage girl would be showing him such attention. This girl in work doesn't sound mature and is probably enjoying the attention of lots of men at the work place right now...it is a mere extension of the type of attention she may have received at school. You have to remember he is with you and not her...it is good that he does speak of her, if he didn't and acted secretively that would be much worse and would indicate bad intentions on his behalf. You should make a bit of a joke of it really - make out it is tragic for him to find the attentions of a teen interesting when he has a real woman at home! Try not to worry about it.

Tell him he's a creep and to tell her to leave him alone. Or just leave him....you deserve WAY better! The girl is acting like a slut, and I wouldn't trust either of them! That is just wrong and gross!

David Lewis agony auntIs there a possibilty he is making this up to make you jealous?

Maybe it is true, but he has became infatuated with her.

Maybe she has paid him compliments which he was not used to and some sort of feelings have started to develop.

If this is an infatuation, you should be understanding to an extent, but remain firm.
