Its become an age difference ...
Quote From: jeanniej70I think you didnt listen to the show, he was so not trying to bring her down, what he was trying to do was get her to see that unless she has some serious conversations with her 28 year old boyfriend, he could break her heart, she ofcourse said to this, "he has trying but I wont listen". So Dr. Phil just wanted her to see the reality of the situation. It is fine to feel young & to act young, BUT the reality is when her boyfriend has to help bathe her & dress her, is he honestly going to be there. She doesnt know this answer cause she wont talk about it. This ofcourse is a conversation that all couples need to have but when you are getting up there in age & are dating someone so much younger... it is even more valid.
Dr. Phil helps people he never hurts people. Trust me I know. I watched this show as I do daily, yes a 62 year old Lady acting like she is in her 20's is a bit odd but its what makes her feel good and it keeps her young! With her age difference to her boyfriend ... We can all sit and judge what we "THINK" he will do or won't do ... My only question is ... does the age difference matter to them? They both answered that on the show ... NO IT DOESN'T!!! As a woman myself that has a 16 year age difference between me and my hubby to be, We have had the talk of what to expect in later years, How we will deal with them as they come, and the difference between his aging faster than I do, None the less we love one another and in the end thats what makes the differnce in our lives. He will go before me I know that and accept it completely!! Just because She will go before him doesn't mean that she shouldn't be loved until then!!! Wouldn't you rather be loved even if it meant a heartbreak than not to be loved at all??? I'd have to say I would rather have the love and take the heartbreak later on in the years. Any couple that has an age gap will have to deal with this issue on some level, for that matter anyone who is in a commited relationship does as well.
