May - December affair, your thoughts?

[Juan Martinez]

"The winds of change are always blowing
And ev'ry time I tried to stay
The winds of change continued blowing,
And they just carried me a way"

Sa katapusan na pala kasal ni bossing ah....

I met this guy na on paper he's a good catch - well spoken, educated and good family. The problem is we have a 16/17 yr age gap!

What's shocking pa e he is the FIRST COUSIN of my FIRST COUSIN (The sister of my father is married to the brother of his father) We were joking na if I brought him to a family affair, everyone would be shocked. I never met him before kasi hindi naman sila close ng first cousins ko because of the age gap na rin. When we first started talking may inkling na ko but hoped I was wrong when he said kasi what his Dad did for a living. We live close pa in Makati so I had a feeling na we knew a lot in common but not that close. Oh well. Too awkward.

He's older. I'm not into younger men (max 5 yrs younger)

genetics-wise, ok lang.
there's no blood relation between the two of you.

No legal impediment either, beyond the 4th degree of consanguinity/affinity yun.

Palagay ko mas bagay kay Cathy ang isang much older man. Mas pasensyoso na yan, and can put up with her antics (no offense meant).


If she wound up marrying yung jobless (ex ba niya?) that she mentioned in the forum dati; who still needs his parents to pay for the wedding expenses pa (at his age) and mukhang mama's boy, nakepow.
Having meaningful work isn't just about earning money. Kahit maliit kita, there's the DIGNITY of being able to attend to responsibilities corresponding to the job. Kahit na lowly clerk entry position pa yun.


Yan ang viewpoint sa culture namin-- being descended from migrants who came to this country with NOTHING, but built themselves up from being stevedores, small time merchants and other menial jobs nobody else wanted through sheer hard work & determination. Four or five generations later, no one can mock them anymore despite their humble origins (and even lack of an "ivy league" education).

Yes he is. His hobby is big bikes and he rides twice a week.

Late 50s lang naman but yeah close to senior. Paano kaya s3xy time with men that age [emoji15]

Yes doc pero we were talking nga na if we end up together. I would have the same middle and surname as my first cousin [emoji23]

Parang mas mahirap nga pag ganyan ka old na (50s and up) kasi they don't want stress and won't toleterate childishness and tantrums anymore hahah. I find that 40s ang pinaka patient?

Re "Cousin in law" He doesn't work too. I think he never worked a day in his life as an employee, but he has his own money ( doesn't need to ask from his parents who are gone na rin naman).

Ewan ko why I am a magnet for men who don't work. Ideal ko yung may 8 to 5 or doctor [emoji14]

It's true that work is dignity. I miss having a job na talaga.
