So I’m 42 and I’ve known this guy who’s 35 for about a year. We met at a party and chatted and swapped numbers. We dated and then he kinda freaked out and disappeared. A year later he rings me and asks to meet me for a drink to say sorry. I go on the drink and we get on and he really did apologise for disappearing etc. We started hanging out a bit and I was fine keeping it casual because of the age difference and because he freaked out once before, so could easily do it again. He’s started messaging and calling all the time and buying me little gifts etc He told me he feels a connection and he doesn’t get that often. Again I was keeping it casual in my head. We do sleep together and it’s great but I find it a bit odd the fact that he’s calling so much and buying me things. He is very grown up for his age and I’m sick of meeting Aholes on apps or in the gym so the company and attention is nice. Can this turn into something or am I crazy?

Using donor eggs should be taken way more seriously than this flippant approach. You're creating a life, not going down the supermarket. And I say that as the mother of an egg donor conceived child.

OP - he's just not that into you.

Yes I mean this as an option. And why not?
