Question - (9 November 2010) 5 Answers - (Newest, 10 November 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Me and my boyfriend are in a complicated situation. He is much older than I am and is technically married as in separated. The other day we were joking about stuff when his ex came up and I said I hated how I felt she was always just lurking in the corner stopping me from falling for him (better in the long term I know seem as he is 48 and im 17. Anyway. He had a really strong reaction and at first I thought he would want to end it seem as we've only being going out bout 3 months. Does anyone think I was unreasonable saying how I felt about his ex? He even says it's unlikely he would even go backto her.

I wasn't being immature, just panicking. I came here for advice not judgement

and no he doesn't have kids.

Thanks anyway.

Watch your prejudices don't stop you from doing something that could make you happy.

What kind of 48 year old man dates a 17 year old? Does he have kids? He could have kids that are considerably older than you!

I'm sorry but something just seems off from the very get go with a 48 year old man who dates a 17 year old girl.

Especially because from your post you seem quite immature. Something smells fishy here.

They have been separated 7 years! I hardly think it sounds like his marriage will work either. I don't expect him to divorce her I just told him how I felt because he was telling me he was almost in love with me.

tennisstar88 agony auntWell how likely is he to hold onto you? There's quite a considerable age gap between you two. Now, if he's not going to go back to her then why not make it official with a divorce? Basically you're sleeping with a married man, so you should be afraid his wife is lurking around the corner. The only one that is holding back this "relationship" is him, because he's not going thru with a divorce. Leave the married man alone, these affairs rarely work out.

I think you are being very immature. If this man is 48 and has a wife that you are feeling paranoid about, perhaps you should split and wait until the divorce is over.
