Just be polite and ask her questions and act interested. It’s unlikely it will last


THIS. I don’t care how ‘hot’ she might be at 20 something. Deep down she knows there’s a massive chasm between you and her OP. And she is intimidated. Let him have his fun. She’ll be out of the picture in the blink of an eye

I do, but they are each more socially mature? It’s hard to put my finger on it, but she’s like an adult who still acts like a teenager cosplaying an adult. It’s really bizarre.


Is she blazing hot? I bet she’s blazing hot. Is he rich? I bet he’s rich. Bonus points for a boat. Does he have a boat?


So, you want her to be a gold digging whore? Is that the picture you’re painting for everyone? That’s how you want to represent your gender? Grow the fuK up.

Wow all these insecure middle aged mommies grasping at rationalizations at how much better they are then 20 year olds.

No, she is not intimidated by the frumpster who’s popped out the kids for her beaus best bud. She’s probably also trying to not die of boredom, but probably complains on TikTok rather than DCUM.

Is that how you refer to your own mom? The frumster who popped you out?

I was that girlfriend. I met my husband at 19 and married at 23.

The men never had a problem with me, but my dear goodness, did some women look askance! Some just couldn't bring themselves to talk to me. My boss's wife just looked outraged when I walked in the first time she saw me (not at me personally, but at the age difference between my husband and I).

I'm not asking you to like her, OP, but please remember that just because she's younger than you doesn't mean she's dumb and doesn't notice what you're thinking about her! She does. Very much so.

If you have kids, how do you ever expect to have a good relationship with their SO’s? You should know how to carry on a conversation with any adult.

Console yourself with the thought that it probably won't last.


Here she is, OP! You're right she is immature.

But I was nice and polite and I remember her asking me questions about my life. She asked me about my running, my diet (runner, at the time eating a macro diet) my family.... In hindsight, I realize it must have been a long night for her. But I remember thinking she was so incredibly nice! And it was all about her showing interest in me. I didn't ask her a single question. Just too young and naive to realize. I am grateful to her now knowing that she worked hard to make me feel comfortable.


Sure but it sounds like that was a one-time thing. OP, how often are you having to give up your nights - like weekly? Just monthly or every few months?

If DH and his friends are okay with a guys night then fine, but I would not want to set a precedent of DH going out with another couple when I can go but choose not to. I would rather choose an activity I enjoy where I don’t have to interact with her too much, like a movie, comedy show, bowling. Even a favorite restaurant if I will be immersed in the food and not mind the conversation
