When Alex first met Samantha, he was immediately captivated by her beauty and intelligence. Despite their 15-year age difference, the two hit it off and soon began dating. For seven blissful years, Alex felt like he was on top of the world, in a loving relationship with a woman he adored.
However, as time went on, Alex started to feel restless. He couldn't help but notice that Samantha's was old with wrinkles in the wrong places and gray hairs were becoming more prominent with each passing year. “When Trust Is Broken” he started to become preoccupied with the idea of dating a younger woman, someone who he felt could better relate to his interests and lifestyle.
It took Alex months to muster up the courage to tell Samantha the truth, that he was looking for someone younger and felt she was too old for him. The words felt heavy on his tongue as he watched Samantha's eyes well up with tears.
Feeling like he said something wrong, Alex tried to backpedal and make amends, but Samantha knew in her heart that it was time to end their relationship. She could see the futility in trying to compete with younger women and realized that her time with Alex had simply run its course.
Years later, when Alex had finally found the younger woman he had been seeking, he couldn't help but feel a little bit of regret. As he compared his current relationship to the love he had shared with Samantha, he realized that he had made a terrible mistake. The young woman he started dating told Alex that she was looking for a younger man because she didn’t want to be seen with a sugar daddy.
Alex couldn’t do nothing but hold his head down ‘saying I’m only 25. As the new young woman walked out of his life. Alex knew then that age was just a number, and true love transcends all superficial concerns.
From that day forward, Alex vowed to never judge a relationship based on the age difference. Samantha may have been older, but she was also wiser, kinder, and more loving than any other woman he had ever met. It was a lesson that he would carry with him for the rest of his life.
