I’ll just say it, my husband is 8 ½ years younger than me. I would like to be able to say that it doesn’t bother me at all, but then I would be lying. I never dated younger men in my youth.
As you know by now, I was married at 18 to someone who was 7 years older and stayed that way for almost 20 years. When I was separated I did the rounds of post marriage dating but never dated anyone younger. Frankly, because I was always the younger one in the relationship, it never occurred to me.
Marc and I met at work when we were both assigned to a special project. I thought he was wet behind the ears and told him so. I was wrong; he did a great job and continues to remind me of it 15 years later.
He had “eyes” on me much earlier than I realized…
