57!! We're both in love. He has been chasing me,
writing me poetry. He
believes in marriage and wants to
get
married in the near future. I feel a little scared
about
competing with younger women out there. He's
handsome and very
athletic. Should I break it off or
stay
in the relationship? I've never felt this way in my
57 years!! Please offer some advice!"
Older women are marrying much younger
men
You
are not alone in battling this dilemma. A lot of
older women are in similar situations these days.
Regarding your fears about
younger women, I think there is nothing to worry.
Since you have not
hidden your age from him, this man knows what he is
getting into, including the fact that he
may not father a child with you.
The only thing I would warn you about is to make sure
why is this man interested in you. Are you
wealthy? If so, you really have to make sure that
his attraction is not based on your
wealth. You should look at his economic profile, his
job, etc. to make sure that he does not see a marriage
with you as a way to
move up the economic ladder or
get out of poverty. If his
love is
genuine and you love him, yes, there will be people
who will make faces, but just go ahead and do what
pleases you rather than worrying about them. |
