If Ihad it to do all over again, I would have listened to my first instincts and NOT gotten involved with him! We are at different stages in life and he wants to hang out and party with his friends ALL the time while We now have a child together and she is the love of my life, but at the same time my love for this man is slowly turning into bitterness, resentment and even hatred while I'm trying to be everything to my daughter and he'd rather be with his friends. :( I know not all men in their early thirties are like this, but this is unfortunately what I am tied to for the next 17 years. :( Yes, the issue is selfishness but the age difference doesn't help.

Seven years difference. I think it's rough. I get his friends wanting to know my age and his parents making harsh comments towards me all the time. They think I'm his sugar momma. I'd have to say, with my 7 years more of experience than his, it's a huge difference. In the beginning it didn't bother me as much but for our future together, I'm scared. I use to have respect from his sister and family, now nothing. I feel insulted all the time. I don't think it's a good idea. I’m in a relationship with a man that is 25 and I’m 32.

I'm 25 and my boyfriend is 34 but we are more in the same place right now. You do have to be aware of things though. For example, why do you like this guys is it be cause he acts like he's 21 and not really stable and what you like will it be good in the long haul. Just some things to think about. If you do decide to continue the relationship I wish you well just keep your mind open. I agree with the comment that it’s not about the years but the time in the life it occurs.
