Hmmmmmmm.........Well, OK......here goes!

I've got the bases covered on this one.

My first significant relationship, we were in the same age bracket. I met him when he was 16 and I was 13. I know....I know! Well, we went together for 9 (in retrospect, horrible) years. I am just grateful I never married him! Stuck in there for 9 years though....OMG!

Second significant relationship (and eventually I did marry him) was with a man 11 years my senior. What was I thinking? Not that his age had a tremendous impact on "us" but that he was just very set in his ways. And to be honest, that wasn't all that bad a thing except that I played second fiddle to his beer and his sports! He was a gentleman and a very sweet man but he wasn't really interested in me. Divorced after 8 years of trying!

My current (and most successful) relationship to date is my man of 8 years my junior. We've had our rocky moments but have always been able to compromise and I think with the fact that we had waited for 12 years before we actually married, it gave us time to see if "we" were what the other wanted in our lives. I don't reccommend this action for anyone, it's just how we did things. He and I are working on 15 years now. Hmmmmmmm.......think he's got a foot out the door? LMAO....JK!

Now, I'm not sure if age has played a role in any of my relationships....or maybe it has.

And to be honest I am trying to figure Coach's response as to his least proud moment for dating a woman 7 years older. I feel as though I should be ashamed of something here.....Hmmm????? Well, I'm not! Teehee!
