Hi everyone, I’d really appreciate a bit of advice. I’m 44 and have been seeing a guy in his 30s casually for a while. He’s brilliant in bed and, more importantly, he’s a genuinely good person.
The thing is, we’re in completely different places in our lives. He’s keen to settle down and start a family, which just isn’t going to happen for me now. I do care about him a lot, and honestly, I don’t think I’d be jealous if he went out with someone else.
My concern is more about him making a choice that’s not right for his future.There’s a woman at work who might be a great match for him. She’s got the same sense of humour and has actually told me several times about her bad luck finding a decent man.
I’m not especially close with her, but my colleague is and really rates her. I’m a bit more senior as well, so I do feel slightly awkward about getting involved in her personal life.I’m not trying to arrange anything casual between them, just wondering if I should suggest they go on a date.
Has anyone else ever found themselves in this position? Did it work out, or was it best to leave well alone? Would love to hear your thoughts.
