I'm 47, She's 27. Wow!


Submitted by: Lindsey

Q - Dear Annabelle,
I met a woman last weekend, (working for the same corporation as I), who is 27 years. old. We seemed to hit it off pretty well and even got a little romantic. She said that she would be interested in seeing where the relationship would go, but she lives in Arizona. (I can get a similar position with my company in Arizona), and she is unsure about trying a long distance relationship. She also has expressed some concern over the age differential.

After getting back to Arizona, she says that she does not think the long distance relationship will work out and she does not think she wants to pursue a relationship with someone 20 years her senior.

I would like to have a relationship with her, but I do not know what to do at this point. Should I cut off all communication? Move to Arizona and see if I can rekindle the relationship? Move on and find someone locally? I really find this woman attractive and desirable to me.

A - Dear Lindsey,

Of course sheās desirable to you..........she hasnāt even begun to hit her physical peak yet and YOU know that youāre darn near yours. (Yeah, I know, drat!!) Oh well, times flies, and you and she arenāt on the same plane. Conventions are notorious for being trysting places and what you had was a fling with someone who wanted to have a fling. (What, you thought guys were the only sluts in the world?)

Well, you used her, she used you.........cheap thrills. Now, donāt you just feel warm and cuddly all over? Sexual relations are special ONLY when theyāre Īspecialā, and thatās best done in the context of a committed, monogamous, (and, ideally marital), relationship. Otherwise, itās no more than cotton candy..........fun while it lasted and too soon gone. Sticky too.
