writes, "I am wondering about my
relationship with a huge age gap but we love each
other. I am 25 years old and she is 53 years old. The
problem is that she
keeps our relationship secret from her family and
friends. I love her so much and she as well, however, I
feel awful living like this in the dark. Can you please
help me? What do I have to do make sure her
family accepts me as her partner?"
I
think you have done your part by loving her and having
the guts to making your relationship public. She is the
one who now has to step forward. I have been advising
another man who is 24 and was secretly in love with a
46-year old woman. He
confessed his feelings for her and she also
expressed her feelings to him. It was complicated
because she was already
living
with another man. She broke up with him and is now
living with her younger boyfriend, who is just about
as old as her daughter.
Finally, everyone has accepted them. This man's mother
is just a few years older than his girlfriend so it was
a difficult task for him to convince his parents but
they accepted his choice.

Paul, ask her to derive strength from your love to
explain to her family and friends. She has to do the
hard work and then you have to
be a good boyfriend to earn their respect and love. |
