Dating question

ok I really like this guy alot ..im 22 and he absolutely amazing but the object is he is 43 hes a celebrity also and I really dont care about his age nor his fame he makes me laugh and feel happy, he makes me feel like im the only woman in the world and he respect me and my body but my mother is concerned that hes way to old and my mom and him are the same age ...sad isnt it? ... but age to me really doesnt matter to me I want love and I think hes the one..but my mother is so concern what should I do?

*note* oh yea did I mention that my mom liked him before we started dating each other..remember he is a celebrity so he is pretty well known so I guess its like her tv boyfriend ...or something

Your mom had her chance to find happiness and you deserve the same opportunity.

When you are 43, he will be 64 and when you are 64, he will be 85. If that doesn't bother you, there's nothing wrong with the difference in age as long as you're talking marriage. The situation you want to avoid is investing your youth in a dating arrangement then being left with nothing when you begin showing some age and he finds another 22 year old. Making you "laugh and feel happy" is a great asset in a relationship but consider the things that may make you cry and feel sad in the future also.

Well, tell your mom that you can love whoever you want because it's your right. By the way, who is the celebrity? if you don't mind me asking.

I was in a similar situation with a retired-but-still-famous pro ball player... I would just caution that you make sure you're seeing what's really there instead of what you WANT to see. There's a big difference. In the first few months, I felt the same way you're describing. As time went on, I came to see that I was no different from his fancy car, big house, etc. I was a "thing" to him. Of course, this was my situation and not necessarily yours, but I'm guessing that this is what your mother is concerned about... Good luck.
