No my current boyfriend isnt violent at all, just my ex was, but the next time he comes into town I am gonna do that so she can get to know him alot better, thx for the advice.

I'm will be financially on my feet in two months thank goodness, I cant wait, believe me.

I can understand where you are coming from. My boyfriend is younger than me and he and I have been together for almost a year. I love him more than anything in the world, and I don't know what I would do without him. Your mother will get used to it...eventually. Mine still hasn't but I have gotten to the point where I don't care about it anymore. If I am happy then that is all that matters

i know what you all mean about society not accepting it. I had just come out of a long term relationship with a guy my age when i started to date an 18 year old when i was 25. We went our different ways in the end but my lasting memory of the relationship was how much better the sex was! what was strange was that he was showing me what to do rather than the other way around! He was far more adventurous and loving towards me than my ex had been. All i would say is if he makes you happy then stick with it!

Hey, don't worry about what other people think. I am a 44 year old woman dating ...a 23 year old man! I used to worry about what people thought, when I let go of those feelings, WOW!
