【AT】My Family Banned Me From Family Gatherings After I Married A Man 20 Years Older Than Me"

[@ScarletFever109]

Nicole’s family had it coming when she tried to destroy everything she built just because they didn’t like that she was dating someone older. Older men go for younger women all the time and although they’re not always the best influence and is not right for everyone, there’s nothing much we can do about it! Her family were the one’s that were controlling and attempted to pass him off as such just so they could be the heroes in that story.

I’m 61 and my Mom’s second husband is 4 months and 3 days older than me. They married over 40 years ago and are truly a match made in heaven. He treats her like a queen and she supports him in whatever he wants to accomplish together. OP’s immediate family needs to mind their own business and stop spewing lies and negativity.

James is 52 and 20 years older than Nicole. Nicole's sister, Sara, said that James is older than their father? YIPES! If their dad is younger than 52 and Nicole is 32, how old was dad when Nicole, James and Sara were born!? Was Sara exaggerating?

I discovered the helplessness that comes from being presumed guilty in a flawed system. I realized that authority without accountability is merely institutionalized bullying.

OP you know what this feeling is lies and damage to your career so honestly you can probably sue them for damage control okay I would advise you to contact a lawyer if you still got the stuff the posting about something that ain't true is where we highly offensive and illegal

I'm disgusted with op's family. I have a dear friend that's like a sister and she married a man that was twice her age. He is actually a good man and has treated her right. At first I was a bit alarmed but I didn't judge her nor tried to sabotage the relationship. All I cared about was that he was a good man to her because she more than deserved that after everything she's been through in her life. My mom has made comments about it like "daddy issues" and I went off on her for judging plus an earful about how as a Christian she shouldn't be acting like that. She apologized and hasn't said anything like that since. All that matters is that they're happy and it's a healthy relationship regardless of age difference. In my family, I had an aunt that was ten years older than her husband, so what? They had a wonderful marriage til they passed away. Some people need to get over themselves and care about their kid's/sibling's happiness than about their "image" and themselves.

If they're BOTH over the legal age and treat each other well who cares

@Horrormoviefan-rl1wl exactly what I told my mom.
