raw_jade Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 I have been seeing a man 25 years older. I have two young children, and he has two grown children, not much younger than I. I am 29.....(we've told everyone I'm 30) He has introduced me to a lot of his friends and his daughters, and they have all met my children as well. We have an extremely strong attraction to one another, yet he refuses to think with his heart and continues to tell me that it'll never work because he's "too old" for me.. For one, because I have two small children. (2 and 6) and he keeps telling me that it'll have to end sooner or later, and it's better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all, which I think is just a load of crap. I think that if you have strong feelings for someone and the feeling is mutual, which it is, you shouldn't throw it in the toilet right away, just because you think it "won't work", or "I'm just too old for you." I used to think age mattered, but after meeting him I have completely changed my mind, and I see no age difference. We've had so much fun together, talking, laughing, flirting, and the kissing is so amazing that he's told me he hasn't felt that way during a kiss but once... I am so frustrated and wondering if I should just stop seeing him or see if time will tell and hope he changes his mind. He is simply an amazingly fun person and I've had some of the best times of my life with him and wish he weren't so nervous about our age difference. If he didn't have intentions with me, why would he introduce me and my kids to so many people?
Tony T Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 WOW, an honest man. You've got a real find there. They guy's not leading you on...he's telling you just how it is. Of course, he could change his mind as time goes on...you never know. I'd stick around a little longer to see just how things go. Finding a guy like this is rather unusual in this day and time.

Not entirely honest...he's lying to his family about her age. Only a year, but it's a lie which shows he's uncomfortable. raw_jade, HE thinks he's too old for you, or that you're too young for him. In the end, that's what will matter. The age makes a difference to HIM even though it might not to you. And perhaps he doesn't want to be a step-father to two small kids. Listen to what he's telling you.
