I'm 28, he's 52. I'm in love and don't know what to do

Just that really.

I've never felt so connected to someone or so attracted.

I want kids, he is prepared to do this, and he already has two of his own.

My heart literally aches for him when I'm not with him.

Is it naive to think I wouldn't find this again with someone younger? I feel like he is my soulmate. But I don't want to look back in ten years and wonder if I made the wrong choice. I don't know what to do.

"The fact some of us on here have found it creepy has been used by others to accuse us of ageism which is basically to derail the thread and a red herring"

The accusations of ageism weren't so much at the creepiness (though some were) they were more at the comments on older bodies. It's one thing to comment that a generation gap means having sex with someone of a similar age to your child, another to say "eww, saggy balls and floppy dicks".

YY Gabilan and its also extremely childish.

To disagree is not a derailment or a red herring Joffrey.

Any update OP? Are you still with him?

Sorry to post in a zombie, but...this is why you're a shithead if you get involved with a much older man in an affair. Read this. Hell, it could be the same damn man in both these stories, with his age slightly changed in one to make it harder to identify the people involved. Timeline lines up well enough.
