I’m against relationships where the ladies are older than their partners. They say age is just a number but that statement is false.
I have enough evidence to show that there are numerous cases where the woman tends to lose her respect when she finds herself in such a situation.
In order not to be a victim, the first question I ask any man who makes advances towards me is his age, and you must show me your birth certificate before I would believe you. It’s funny, right?
I met this guy and I got carried away by his looks so I didn’t think of asking about his age. He’s a very sweet person so whatever was going on between us, I was enjoying it.
I went over to his place to spend a weekend, which was my first time visiting him. I woke up the next day and he wasn’t around but left a note that he would be back soon.
To pass the time, I decided to look around his place and my curiosity led me to his wardrobe. I saw his ID card and read the details on it. I was taken aback when I saw his age. I instantly did the calculations and got to know I was five years older than him.
Before he returned home, I had already left and gave him a lame excuse as to why I left.
I ignored him for three weeks and within those weeks, there was no day he never called.
I called him when I was ready to talk and explained to him that I couldn’t be in a relationship with someone I was older than.
He laughed and said that should not be an issue and that if I take my mind off such thoughts the relationship is going to work.
I told him I stand by my words and insisted he can’t just let me go.
“I’ve grown to love you and I’ve improved in so many ways since we met. I don’t think I can easily let you go,” he told me.
He even cried and begged me to accept him.
Could this be true love? I’m confused and don’t know what to do.
