Here is my final update. Bf (18) and me (52) broke up right after our 6 month. I have stated some challenges in my previous posts, but I finally ended it. I have felt him pull away, be more rude and treat our relationship as a chore. Every time I tried to talk about it he would get mad at me, which was his form of denial. Thankfully I've been around long enough to see the signs. I didn't want to, but I ended it. He was ready to move out the next day and quit school, but thankfully he had a calmer head the next day and moved to my guest room. Since then we are still close, I still watch out for him, but I think we both feel better without all the pressure over us. He has said he really needs more of a dad and I think maybe that is the relationship we should have had. I love him, I want to see him happy and succeed, grow and accomplish all he wants. He has realized that our age gap was too much for him, and that's ok. He's learning what he wants/needs. I don't regret a thing and I'm ok. I still always have hopes for love in the future, despite I know it will always be difficult for me. In the end, im ok, he's ok and love is still there, even if it isn't as I had hoped. Thanks all for being there during this. Xoxo
