Just my second blog. This is not actually mine, though. Just sharing the situation currently experienced by this very good friend of mine. His experience now might happen to me also, so, I opted to have it here with you.
The title of this blog might mislead you, coming to the impression that I’m referring to, well, two individuals separated by thousands of mile. Truth is, I’m actually referring to age gap. And according to our society, 10 to more years of gap is a big difference.
So what I am talking about? This friend of mine is very much in love with an 18 year old. Their gap is, 13 years. You could compute for his actual age. Coincidentally, that happens to be my age too.
Now here’s the concern. How can he say to this very smart, good natured, well mannered and beautiful lady that he is in love with her? How can he make it look like their age can just be ignored? More importantly, how can he make her fall in love with him, against all the odds that would come?
It’s definitely his concern. He already talked to me once about not pursuing her. His thought, that once he expresses of his dying love for her, she might consider him too old, and it hurt his feelings even by just thinking of it. He can’t accept the feeling of rejection. He thought of just loving her in silence, opting just to maintain his good friendship with him.
And yet, I told him once, are you really sure that it is also what she feels? I mean, his thinking of getting rejected, if ever he might tell her. It might be the opposite. We never had the power to read the minds and feelings of an individual. So, it might be the opposite. She might like him too. And might have special feelings also. Hhhhmmmm……….
What should be the right thing for him to do. Tell her of his true feelings, just keep it to himself, loving her in silence?………
