Relationships depend first on shared feelings, i.e. mutual love and respect, caring and common interests, and the readiness of both sides to defend, build and develop their couple.
The age gap may be a challenge, but not an insurmountable obstacle, in spite of differing views and "cultural values" :
To each his own. Whatever makes him happy.
If they both like each other then there is nothing wrong about that.
From what he's said on the phone, they really like each other and enjoy each others company. She's younger than all three of us kids.
Hugh Hefner doesn't think she's too young.
No, seriously, Hitman, it's their choice, and if they're happy, then it's fine.
I just like to see him happy and not so lonely all the time.
They're both grown adults. It's fine
Considering my husband is 62 and I'm 21, I'd say no...
Geez ! I better not tell him that ! LOL......
Thank you.
If that makes you happy go for it and hang in there...

Hitman, I wish your dad and your stepmother to be happy together.
As they are both older, I think it is fine.
They are both grown adults, so therefore it it okay!
I'd say unless you're 42 or older, I wouldn't really worry about it.
They are fully mature knowing what they want in a relationship he is not robbing the cradle.
