writes:I'm in a relationship with a significate age difference (legal) and a very noticable class difference. If anyone has been in or is in either of these types of relationships, I'd would love any advice on making this easier. Being on the upperclass side of this, is there any way I can end up still having a positive relationship with a family bothered by his background (and age)? To him and me, there is no issue. Sure it would be nice if he was younger and rich, but it is what it is and that's life. Other than these two stigma-attached delimmas, we have just about everything in common: interests, goals, spiritual beliefs, politics, humor, etc. and we both feel complete when we are together.

reader, anonymous, writes (14 July 2009): I have very good advice to this question because i have expierenced it my self, i was 35 and he was 55 like you we had alot in common i loved it when i was with him he made me feel like i could be myself , he accepted me as i was; my friends and family told me he was not good for me because he was not a handsome rich gentleman, he was not good looking he looked old already he had worked very hard for most of his life and well me i was still very young. I went on and made a terrible choice. I listened to my friends and family because of what people would say the years have gone by and i feel so sad and very depressed because no one has been able to measure up to him. If you feel he is your soul mate dont let him go. I ask myself now where are my friends and family when i lay awake at night wondering what might have been, or the moments when im down they wont understand me even if they tried. My advice is follow your heart because you have to live this life no one is going to live it for you.... best wishes

 Age and class rank should not matter in love nowadays.. You love who you love and of course there will always be hurdles here and there.. Your family may just warm up to him later on.. but there really isn't much anyone can advise you on besides just letting your family get to know the man you share so many interests with and maybe they will understand why you love him.
