I am 22 dating a guy about 30 years older, give or take (I know, I know, over twice my age). But, we have known each other for awhile, we live together, and are bf and gf. We enjoy each others company. We have similar interests (old movies, shows, and music and he even likes modern things too). I mean I am the one subscribed to Reminisce Magazine and had to introduce him to it and one of our favorite shows are the black and white Zorro from back in the day. I like older guys and had plenty experience with different aged guys (even though this guy is the oldest ever); we even have a lot in common on personality, thoughts, and characteristics. We talk for hours. Plus, I don’t like to party or drink, so I prefer just sitting at home or going out for a nice evening and etc. Also, his family and friends know about me and etc.
Anyway, point is only a couple people know about him on my side on the social realm, people who tolerate it and are fine with it. How do I break it to my parents and other friends and family?
I am not looking for a lecture or criticism, here I just want to know how to break it as easy as possible. He is just a great guy and I don’t want to have to keep him in the back like I should be ashamed. HHEEELPPP!!!
