age gap relationships can work, I'm 33 and married to a guy of 72, we don't see the age gap as an issue, its other people who do and make narrow minded comments about us but we are used to it now and ignore them
@Pherick: You don't have much first hand experience of disabilities do you. My old sea dog can still be going up and down the fells in the English Lake District on his off road mobility scooter long after I want to retire to the nearest pub. And even if he couldn't, what rule demands that all 33 year olds are interested in walking anyway?
@colourmeginger: No rule demands it of course, just the very real difference in age gap start to appear at that difference. As I said, not everyone even notices an 10 year age gap, but at almost 40 years, you notice things.
@Pherick: Yes, but noticing something doesn't equate to not knowing how (or wanting) to deal with it. On the other hand you notice the differences too, the maturity, the wisdom, the gentleness that only comes with age and having encountered something before and knowing a better way of handling it than you knew of when you were young. All these things can come across to the younger person as the distinct *benefits* of being with someone a good deal older.
You're still young and want to do things and have loads of energy. He can probably still walk to the shop but not for much longer before he gets his mobility scooter.
My favourite male lover has already been using a mobility scooter for the best part of twenty years and our love hasn't diminished one iota. If it had, it wouldn't have been love.
It's hard not to look for a reasonable answer you know...im really not trying to be an ass but you can't blame people for their reactions..but if its really what you say it is,good for you guys😊
