To Be Young Again

Fifteen years difference, my God, how could this be happening.  Will I be able to keep up.  His 40 years to my 55 years.  After all he persued me, and I kept saying I was too old, nothing can happen.  We were the best of friends and that was all, I was not going to let it go anywhere, I was too old for him.  I could have been your babysitter!  Did I want to start all over again.  After a twenty- five year marriage down the drain, my outlook was not damaged.  What would it be like to have a younger lover, a soul mate.  After all I have known him for ten years before my marriage crumbled and I never told anyone at work until the day it ended.  Not the sort to air my dirty laundry in public, I do have dignity.  Although it was a slow transition into this new affair that I tried to squash from the start, it did not work the way I intended.  My life was full of complicated experiences with alot of lessons learned, but not one of them prepared me for this.  It wasn't for the youthful feeling, I already had that.  It wasn't for the sex, as I soon learned that wouldn't have been a bad idea, because it was amazing.  It was like a whole new world had opened up to me.  Here I am now in this amazing relationship for ten whole years, and I still have my identity and my money.  Now girls, what more could you ask for.  I suddenly sensed there was more to life than the latest wrinkle cream on the market or how late should I stay up to talk on line.  Believe me, it beats eating cookies and cream ice cream by yourself, or ordering chinese food for one and eating it for two days.
