Yannick calls it a day with his younger lover Anna
DEIDRE SAYS: AGE-GAP relationships can work as long as there isn’t an imbalance in power and partners are at the same life stage.
You realised quickly Anna wasn’t looking for an equal partner, but a father figure.
On the other hand, you were searching for someone to share your life with, someone mature enough to share responsibilities.
If a woman was their father’s little princess, the apple of their eye, they may look to replicate that relationship romantically.
My support pack Age Gaps – Do They Matter? has more insight.
