It’s weird when your body is getting older but your mind still feels young.

@marsbar I just had an attration to a very young girl, 20, and even though I did feel it was mutual I *didn't* want to find out.... not to protect a shattered ego, but what energy will we find together?

@SW-User I think if 2 people are attracted to each other, they’ll make it work somehow even with a big age gap.
SW-User
@marsbar Awe... while I can be shy, and if I hadn't felt this attraction; I've learned a very open mind. One's mind can outshine their inhibitions; and their inhibitions not being wrong either :)

@SW-User My mind keeps me young. :)
SW-User
@marsbar Agreed! You're from somewhere north of Toronto (I remember that being earthquakefish) and once I had this attraction I had to see, oh wait, my nephews will know her. At least one. So I decided to ask my eldest nephew, who I trust, his opinion, and he was like 'well it's obvious she is your type (he meant physical) but I don't know her otherwise') He said, 'go for it. Find fun. Be yourself.'

@SW-User Oh, that’s you? Ok

So you asked your nephew’s opinion?
SW-User
@marsbar Yes, I'm trying to stay away from this place and be quieter.

Yes I did ask his opinion. Which was not maybe not hard for me as I know him with a very open mind.

@SW-User I see.
SW-User
@marsbar why would I? I'm the other errant, odd, member of the family - he knows this, and in a way I was also giving him something
SW-User
now why wouldn't I? (about the girl). I got nervous, and I'm not ready for the feelings I was feeling (infatuation, which is what it was, like I was).

@SW-User Ok
SW-User
You know I'm answering the age difference and idea here :) So don't treat it emotionally carefully. I'm very philosophically open, and it did question me
marsbar · F
@SW-User You are very philosophical.
SW-User
@marsbar As I've been told. May I be open, and its a very side topic, that is how my last partner and I connected when I didn't know I was? It's a hard relationship to move on from
marsbar · F
@SW-User Well I hope you find another relationship you’ll be happy in.
SW-User
@marsbar Yes, thank you. You could even probably imagine how I wanted something lighter, something more fun?
marsbar · F
@SW-User Yes
