My husband is twenty-three years older than I am. At this point in our relationship, it's not a problem in the context of bdsm, though it does occasionally cause problems in other aspects of our life. When we first started dating eight years ago, I have to admit, his age terrified me. Neither of us was intentionally looking for someone older or younger, but we clicked and felt we owed it to ourselves to give it a shot. Sure, I had a lot of thinking to do about whether he and I wanted the same things for our future - marriage, kids, etc. I wondered about how my family and friends would react. And I did question if I saw him as a father figure and if I was looking for someone to repair the damage my father did to me. I don't think that was the case, but it really skeeved me out at first when I realized he was only a few years younger than my father. No, he's not the man I originally envisioned being with for the rest of my life, but, now, I can't imagine my life without him.
