Wishful and magical thinking create the need to meet an emotional virgin, which does not exist, unless the date is beamed here frozen, in hibernation from age 10, or younger, from another planet. Everyone has a story to tell. Everyone, and I mean everyone, by age 35 ‘has a story,’ (a bad outcome, abuse, trauma, bad luck) and people also change, so who was Mr. or Mrs. Right at age 20 is not Mr. or Mrs. Right at age 45. Yet, we all become set in our ways, so you second guess any new, older relationship, and that is fine, and perhaps you need to be alone, but that becomes lonely, as many singles in high rises discovered during COVID-19 wishing there was someone to talk with, or share an experience. In essence most everyone needs to be with something or someone, a so-called object relation, and if of sentimental value so much the better. In essence, on an older date you are like a therapist, but absent the training and ethical constraints, knowledge, experience and understanding of human relations, and if of quite different age––more than 15 years apart––have separate learning curves, acquired tastes, and codes of conduct from the ever-changing culture. This age discrepancy causing relationship problems is quite normal, and to be expected, but is painful if you are simply on different wavelengths through no fault of your own. Life and social norms are unfair.
