Head or Heart
I love someone so much. Large age gap though… worried about peoples opinions. But then I think, are we really put onto this world to live for others, to not live to our full potential, to not be happy? I’m so lost though. I want to be with them, I’m so happy. Our souls connect. They feel the same way. I live in the moment. Do I go for it?
Me in this other,person feels the same way but with so much stuff goin on in both of our lives that we can't go for it and give it a shot it really sucks cause i really do care and enjoy her company and love everything ab her idk how to make this work cause we both think and feel the same way on a,high personal level. Im so lost so broken and beat down idk what to do
@lillymargrett Hello and welcome to 7cups!
It's understandable to feel worried about people's opinions, especially if there's a particular high age gap between the two of you. But again, it's great that you realize that you don't really have to live in the weight of others' opinions and that you deserved a right to be happy just like other people do. Especially when he sounds like an amazing person and that the two of you are a match for each other in personality.
That said, it's always beneficial to perhaps ruminate and write the pros and cons of this relationship. While you might be clear that people's opinions are the only thing holding you back, there might be some other factors that may be made obvious after some thought.
All the best!
