Oh boy...
I met my husband when I was 15. He was 20, turned 21 a few weeks later. We met through his sister. We had been friends for a few years, didn't even know she had a brother. One night, she said I should meet him. It was love at first sight. We dated for just over a year before breaking up. The age difference was no problem for us. I am an only child and was almost always around adults. His mom, sister (who didn't think we'd actually get along
) and my mom basically broke us up.
I went off to college out of state, he married someone else. I moved back to the area, he was getting a divorce. He emailed me when I was 24. We were engaged the next month, married 9 months later. We've been married now for 4 1/2 years and have a 6 month old son. And now my mom just loves him. She'll call and spend most of the time talking to him. Go figure!
