My mom adores him. Likes him better than anyone else I've ever brought
home. We've been together for 2 1/2 years and we're pretty much
long-term, although it may be a while til we have the tim e and energy
for a wedding.

Since he's 10 years younger than me (most woman say to me, YOU GO
GIRL!) we should grow old together anyways, although i'm growing old
much faster than he is!!

I don't know about 20/40, but once you're into your mid to late 20s,
if the compatbilty is there, why worry about the ages? Happiness is
worth much more than a number.
