Hello ladies. I recently met a gentleman who is 17 years my senior. I am over 40, but look quite young. He is established and retired, but it seems strange that he is okay going out with me when almost everywhere we go men assume I am his daughter. In fact, I am about 10 years older than his daughters. I told him I am okay with companionship, but not dating or being serious. He then said he wants a relationship, and to give someone an easy life. I have met his daughters, seen his home, and generally he seems great; but something seems off although I cannot put my finger on it. I generally stay away from older men bc it seems gross to me. I have contemplated dating him because of the possibility of having a provided life for me and my small son. I have read the handbook, I am just looking for some experiences, thoughts, etc…
