I am a 64 year old woman who is widowed. Recently I started dating a wonderful younger man. He's 37. We're fine with the age difference but many of the people in our lives aren't. How should we deal with thier comments?
Do you think it's normal?

That's their problem, not yours.

When I was in my early 30s, I had a brief but intense physical relationship with my landlady, who was in her early 60s, and still very sexy. It was fun for both of us, but she ended it when she was working towards remarrying her 3rd husband. Both of you enjoy yourselves.
Thank you, I feel better. My son and I feel there's nothing wrong with our relationship
GO YOU seriously! wish youse the best, give your friends time to accept it, they'll have it eventually sooner or later and when they do, it'll be the right time. Another way is to not give a damn what others think because you dont have to prove yourself to them, if they love you, they'll except the situation and let you be happy.
Instead of asking if it is normal or not, you should ask yourself: Are you enjoying it? Is he enjoying it? Are you hurting anyone? Babe, this life is yours and you do whatever you want with it unless its hurting people, so please live on.

Let me give you a tip: If your friends do not understand shit, you simply avoid them, after a while (if your worth it) they will come around and be totally understanding, because they will have to see that they are NOT gonna stop you from being you, and living life your way.

And hey, I too flirt with women twice my age... Im 25 and screwing around with a woman around your age... And why not?

Cough, I pretty much flirt with all women I like... I could potentially even screwed a nun if I felt like it. I just do what feels right.
Deal with their comments? Try: "That really isn't any of your concern, is it (name), thank you." Then change the topic.

However the 2 of you feel about dating - there's going to be some gossip. It is like BS - best to walk around it rather than through it (or sit in it).

Some of this gossip is the age difference. A lot I bet is that you are an older woman dating (seism agism). And a lot more is just envy.
