From Lydia:

Elise, I have been a reader of your site for about a year now. I especially love the stories section. Recently, I read a story on your site from a woman named Evie. She asked you about keeping her young boyfriend a virgin after they were married. Her story moved me to write you about my marriage.

I have wanted to write you ever since I found your site but just never did. Elise, I have been in a Female dominated marriage with a younger man for the past eight years. I am Forty-one and my husband is Twenty-nine. I was married before but got divorced when my first husband and I were both twenty-eight. That marriage only lasted five years and I was pretty hurt.

When I was thirty-two, I began to date a twenty year old man. He was actually the son of a woman I use to work with. It is a long story about how I ended up going out with this boy but to make it short, I found myself in a relationship with a man that was twelve years younger. Not only was he only twenty years old but he was also still a virgin. We went out just as friends in the beginning and as we became attractive to each other, I made up my mind that I was not about to sleep with him. I figured that this relationship would never last and since I knew his Mother, I did not want to be the one who took his virginity. His Mother was Ok with us dating because I told her we were only going to movies and dinner as friends.
