iHatemF -- How can you tell if it's true love or puppy love after only a month and a half? We kind of decided when we first started dating that we would be breaking up when he went overseas, but as it stands now, if he offered to carry on seeing me or asked me to come with him or whatever, I don't know what I'd say. I'd be inclined to say yes. So at this point, I honestly don't know what sort of love it is.
Also, I've been out with people around my age, and it's never been like this. I always found them to be less mature than I am, and no one ever made me feel like he does. He's so special.
For the record, I don't think I have any father issues, and I don't think that's why I'm seeing this guy. My dad died when I was five (sorry, I forgot to mention that in my question, although it is quite important, psychologically, I suppose); I'm well over his death by now, and had many other male figures in my life growing up (like my step-father and my uncle and my older brothers), so I really don't think I'm just dating this guy for a "daddy replacement".
Is it normal to go out with a man 37 years older than you?
