Hi all, iv been single for around 7 years last year I met a guy my age and I fell for him, we had a few problems as I felt unwanted by him, he said he cared for me but is unable to love after he lost his mum and brother, I understand that but he was adamant that he couldn't love, he would come and go as he please and after 9 months on off I finished with him..
I'm still very hurt as I genuinely loved him. Just recently I met a guy through a friend and he's lovely but my problem is he's 28 and I'm 38. He's very grown up but I don't feel right.
My oldest daughters nearly 22 so I feel he's more her age.
Am I being silly what do u all think
Thanks. X

Of course not. You're both adults. If there's a connection then give it a go. Attraction isn't based on someone's age! Age doesn't have to matter if you like someone. Enjoy getting to know him!

There's no rule, OP. Who you see and feel attracted to is entirely your own business. It wouldn't worry me.

Sounds like you think it's a problem, which is really the only opinion which matters
