Dear Abby ,
I met Laurie at a singles dance. I knew as soon as I looked at her
that she was too young for me. I'm 49 and she was 32 , 17 years
my junior.
I really regretted it because we got along so well that evening.
She made me feel so comfortable in her presence. Our age
difference didn't seem to matter to her as much as it did to me.
Abby, I told her I felt people were staring at us. I said they are
probably wondering if I am your father. She thought I was being
silly and said if I wanted to see her again she would be honored
to go out with me.
Laurie and I have been dating now for three months. I really like
her and I think she likes me. Still, everywhere we go, I feel
people watching us. Sometimes they just outright stare. It is very
annoying and I know it is because of our age difference that
draws these prolonged looks from everyone we meet.
I just feel so uncomfortable about this whole thing and wonder if
I should continue with the relationship. Why do people have to be
so rude....?
Sincerely, John
PS: I have attached a picture of Laurie.
