Question - (26 October 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 29 October 2009)
A female China age 36-40, *ailing writes:

Just as the saying goes " love is blind",I am in love with a man who is 22 years older than me (i'm 28), he divorced couple of months ago, he loves me so much, making me feel I am having the whole world. This kind of beloved feeling never happens to me ever before.

However, my parents and all my friends told me this kind of relationship will never work out, they ask me to leave him and look for someone at my own age. In their opinion, our happiness is just temporary, I am at the peak of my life while he is declining.

How about 10 or 20 years later, when I'm 38/48 and he will be 60/70? we are not able to have normal sex like other couples do,and later on, he will pass away 2o or even 30 years earlier than I do, that means I will suffer from loneliess in my old age.

I don't know what to do, and I am so helpless....

i don't think it's right to date someone that much older. think about it from his point of view. he's pretty old, and here comes this young pretty girl.

but also, he's old enough to be your father. can u imagine?

or ur children's lives. they will have a dad who's as old as their grandpa, and a mom who's normal age. i say break up with him
