every1 hates me cuz i am with an older man

hi, i been cing this guy for about 6 months now but it has caused me 2 lose all my friends in the 6th form. I am 17 my b/f is 50, he is very gud looking 4 his age and was there 4 me wen my last b/f cheated on me.

we met in a cafe after he saw me lookin sad and came over 2 talk 2 me, he was so gentle and kind, i did not no his age as he looked bout 35, i was shocked wen he told me he was 50 but i didn't mind as he certainly doesn't show his age wen it cums 2 the bedroom.

Now all my friends r calling me horrible names & telling me 2 finish it but i can't cuz he has been gud 2 me.

Worst still wen my parents found out they went thru the roof so i walked out and stayed wit my aunt 4 a bit, be4 my b/f let me move in with him, he owns his own business so money is not an issue.

How can i make my friends accept it, surely the age isn't a problem wen u love sum1 so much, my teachers 2 have been off wit me and told me my work is suffering but i don't think it is.

I am happy with my b/f yet i am sad cuz nearly all my friends won't talk to me & think i am a sl*t which is not true, i have not heard from my parents in 2 months., can any1 advise me?

Well you have got to look at the facts... your 17 in a cafe and a 50 year old man ends up going out with you. You have got to take a serious look at his motives, and if I were you I would be worried..... sounds rather pervy to me.

Well woteva happens I hope ur mates change their minds and stand by you!

He's 50.

Don't kid yourself.

He's old enough to be you father - why is he not with anyone his own age? Maybe your friends don't want you to fail or feel threatened by him?

What is it with these threads? 17 year olds going out with pensioners seems to be a fashion these days.
I have one thing to say to you, I think you're a foolish idiot for hooking up with a pervert. I don't care how much you say "he luvs meeeeee" the fact is you're being taken advantage of. Why don't girls like you just wise up and get boyfriends your own age? Girls like you make me ashamed. Maybe you should read the papers more. Oh, and crimewatch.

Although if you love him enuf just tell the truth.

Choose who you want to be with, the 50yr old or your friends & family.

That's because they are 17, not middle aged weirdos who go out with teenagers. And cut the text speak if you want to be taken seriously.

He's 50! whos he gonna cheat WITH? Seriously, most people his age are married with kids. He;s gonna be dead in 20 - odd years prob.

He's 50 years old and he's not immature? Gee, big surprise there then.

He'll be dead of old age before you even reach the menopause. Think about that.
