When a Woman Loves a (Younger) Man

He must have fallen on on his fanny a hundred times before he became adept enough to join Marnele for a stroll around the latter’s village – on rollerblades!  Describing the experience, Rey sez he felt young.  this having a younger partner has also become a sort of status symbol for both men and women, and as if things are not crazy enough, the younger set has also discovered that having an older partner makes for an interesting relationship.  At first, I thought to ballroom dancing out of this world, but now with Rey, & Marnele avers. Marnele and Rey are not really being scrutinized too much, since we have this idea that it’s all right for a younger woman to fall for an older guy.  The situation, however, becomes different when the opposite happens, and an older woman falls for a younger man.  In other parts, of the world, no one really gives a darn if your mate’s olders or younger than you are.  Of course, the same thing can’t be said in our country, especially if one of the couple is separated from a former mate.  

And so back to our couples.  Aida saying she’s doing what is right.  It pains her but she’s getting her young friend out of her system.  Falling in love with the right man during a wrong time and at the wrong place?  “I really don’t know… all I know is I have to make the right move,” she said.  Lorna’s case is more opended.  Should she encourage her won young man or should she discourage him?  As for Faye, she’s keeping her options open. Johnny, is too young he can change his mind anytime, even if he serious nowadays.  All I know we enjoy each other’s company, even with the snide remarks from all directions.  It may or may not last, but I’ve always been a gambler.  I can deal with losing, much more so with winning – what I can’t take is not giving things a try,” she explained.  With the present state of things in the country, those who are planning to get into this is old-young and young-old thing should seriously consider all consequences – legal, emotional, social even psychological ramifications.         

Is it worth being called a cradle-snatcher, sugar mommy or sugar daddy? How about the young mates how do they feel when they her the tags user or leech?  And come to think of it, should the people concerned give a darn to what other people-say?  As usual, our story merely gives everyone somethings to think about, and leave the people concerned to make their own decisions – even as we wish them all loads of goodluck!
