Thoughts on age difference between couples
Relationship Stress / by Drgnld1968
Last post

...See more I'm falling in live with an I've known for a long time. We have been friends and have been there for each other through a lot of situations, good and bad. He was dating my best friend. They broke up several months ago. We recently reconnect with each other. I've been in live with him for a very long time bur never acted on it because of whom he was with. We have talked and want to be together. My dilemma is our age difference. He is 19 years younger than me. I'm afraid that if we do get together he will regret it later. He says the difference doesn't matter to him but what will happen when I'm in my 60 and he's only in his 40? And his ex(my best friend) doesn't know about us yet. She is not going to like it at all. But she is happy in a new relationship. I'm not sure how to tell her. Any suggestions and help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all!!

Friendship dilemma

...See more I've been friends with my best friend for several years now. We have been there for each other through loves and deaths. She has had a couple boyfriends in the past. They have become my friends as well. She broke it off with her last boyfriend several months ago. She has since then gotten with a new boyfriend. He treats her good. And I'm happy for her. My dilemma is that her last ex boyfriend wants to start seeing me. I've been single since my last boyfriend of four years died four years ago. I have dated but nothing serious. I've been attracted to this man from the first time I saw him. But because I love my best friend I never acted on it. But now she is with someone who she is happy with. Their break up wasn't a good one. She tells me things and he tells me there not true. He's never lied to me that I known of but I know she has before. Do I say yes to seeing him and not tell her and maybe lose my best friend or do i tell her and maybe not only lose a friend but maybe a good relationship? I want to see him also. He has been there for me also. HELP!!!
