I didn't mention the two young kids bc I hadn't thought much of it. But I can see what you mean, Blur.
I realized I mistakenly put that we met 3 mths ago when I meant 3 yrs ago. We were friends and remained so after I left town. I returned at the beginning of this year. Our romance really hit us out of nowhere. A few months back I had been dating a guy 40 years old. So I knew that their relationship was probably just an fwb situation when he told me about the age difference. There was no chance for them to amount to anything.
He told me he needed to confide in his friends was bc he didn't know how to approach the situation. At first I thought he needed their advice not to make a decision. But bc he didn't want to hurt her. Yet I wonder what questions he had for his friends that would involve their age difference. Were they giving him suggestions to let her down easy? She could better handle that the age was the main factor versus him just choosing me over her.
I don't know. I always thought a man would be with whom he wants to be. Period. But I'm hearing that he still has feelings for her.
