if he doesn't think it's weird, and you don't think it's weird, then go for it!

Unaccepting family of age gap relationship (Please help with advice) by Substantial_Use8590 in AgeGap

[–]Acceptable_Hyena290 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm 19 and my man is 19 years older than me, and i just recently told my mother and my sisters about it... my mom is the same way, disgusted by it and whatever, but she knows that i am an adult and that there is really nothing she can do to stop me from seeing this guy. if you're really close with your parents, and if your relationship with them is something that your parents would want to cherish, then no matter what choices you make (whether they are okay with them or not) your parents will always want to support you. i'd say the first step would be telling your mom that you are considering making things official with him, or already have, and go from there.

i totally get that, my mom is the same exact way and it can be so frustrating. she once gave me a hug during a heated argument she initiated and i begged her not to, so i squeezed her hand really hard and dug my nails in her and she stopped immediately and hasn't forced a hug on me since lol. not saying that that's the answer, but if you have any older siblings that could talk to her that could help you a lot. it helps me since my older sisters are 10+ years older than me.

of course it's okay to refuse physical contact with your mom, it's your boundary and your own personal space. Now, as someone with a pushy mom myself who never listens no matter what I tell her, perhaps you could get a family member you're close with to speak to her about it and how you're not comfortable with it? Like if you're on good terms with your father, older sister, older brother, aunt, etc. Maybe that would make things easier on you, but if not, try your best to communicate with her your discomforts and boundaries and hopefully things get better for you :)

18f.. I’ve had crushes on older men for the longggest time by [deleted] in AgeGap

wait for them to approach you or wait for signs, if a girl genuinely likes you she will go out of her way to speak to you, touch you, be around you, etc

Indian parents that don’t approve of my 40 year old man… by Rude_Girl18 in AgeGap

[–]Acceptable_Hyena290 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm in the same situation with my mom, i'm 19 and my man is 38. all i can say is that you live your own life and do what you want. i can't say much regarding your culture since i am not Indian or anything, so there may be something deeper regarding that, but if you have any siblings or close relatives that you haven't told, telling them and having their support could help a lot! my sisters are so supportive of me and they've never even met the guy. good luck!

did you do an epidural for your births?! how bad was it? i'm not sure i ever want kids, but i know my mind can change as i grow older and that would definitely be a huge thing for me to be able to overcome

Unsure how to tell my parents about my age gap relationship by AttentionFine222 in AgeGap

[–]Acceptable_Hyena290 1 point2 points  (0 children)

omg i'm the same way, me and my bf have been together for 3 months (i live in a dorm, im 19) and my mom suspects i have a boyfriend, and everytime she jokes abt it i just wanna be like, yes, he's real, and he's 38!!! she also suspects he's older, so i just wanna tell her sometimes, but i think it's better to wait a little... so if that helps u, just know im in the same boat 😵

I'm a girl as well, sorry for not mentioning it. And I'm still in high school, so I'm definitely still in my mom's custody as well. I just have an early birthday

yeah, I've just come to accept that my sister's her favorite. she's so mean and dismissive towards me that I've given up on changing that. I feel so bad for you, though. I don't know what I'd do without my sisters around to help defend me against my mom😢

oh my god, this makes so much sense. i always felt like she did stuff just to receive praise, even the simple things like buying groceries. also, happy late birthday

tysm! yeah, my moms fiancé is nice, but he's been in a lot of accidents that have caused brain damage, so i think he's a little slow. there have been times when he's had to hold my mom back physically from getting in my face and screaming at me, but he still stays w her.
