I have a confession... I am the older woman, by a 3 years! (SHOCK HORROR!)
There are those who cannot stomach this kind of relationship and I myself lost a few friends over it, and to that I have only one thing to say... GOOD RIDDANCE! (have you ever noticed how close a friend is to a fiend?) They were lousy friends and I'm happier without them. The younger man was 16 when we met (the age of sexual consent is 16 in QLD Australia, 17 to be convicted as an adult for a crime, and 18 to buy alcohol) he's now 26, I'm 29, we have 2 kids, been together almost 10 years and married for 6. Am I happy, damn skippy I am. My advice is live your life your way, make no excuses, apologies or regrets!

Good luck!
