If high school boys knew about it, then you weren’t discrete. Sometimes it’s best to keep your sexual activities to yourself. People are going to talk.
The high school bullies just asked if the guy who comes along with me to drop my son off is his dad , and when my son said no , they just started bullying him.
So I am 37 years old woman and been separated from my husband since 7 years.
I dated my ex husband and then married him when I was 24 and he was 37 and people we OK with the age difference.
However, now I am 37 and dating a 26 year old guy since past 8 months, people judge me and think i am a cougar.
I feel bad for the double standards in the society.
The other day some High school bullies from my son's school bullied my son by **** shaming me. My 12 year old son was scarred and I was shocked when he told me what all he had heard from the High school kids.
I feel no one has the right to point out whom I date or am sexually active with as long as I am not breaking the law.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with one person, whether it be the man or the woman being 10 or 15 or 20 years or more older than the other person. And you are right that it is no one's business but yours and your boyfriend/possible future husband.

And my current boyfriend has come to drop off / pick up my kid to school many times and people know about us.
Thanks for coming back and answering these two questions. Even though to me, the answers seemed pretty obvious. Not sure why the other posters didn’t pick up on it.

You might "feel" that way but that doesn't mean people won't talk in spite of your feelings.
And the most notorious talkers when it comes to sex are high school boys, still half children themselves in the grip of hormones. Of course they're going to make lewd comments.
Doesn't make it right, I'm sorry your son had to endure their vulgar abuse, but as they say, that's life.
And in this life discretion is the better part of valor.
Is the double standard fair? No. Is it there? Yes.
As a 37 yo adult you should be aware of this. I can completely understand your dislike of anything but full disclosure of your relationship out in the open but I'm sure you went to middle school (the worst time in life for giggling about sex) and high school. I remember how I felt, I was absolutely sure my parents knew nothing about it.
Never mind I knew how babies were made, etc, young teenage is an irrational time of life, the most volatile time emotionally of our whole lives. And your son is living through it.
Do him a favor, use a little discretion when picking him up and dropping him off at school.

High school kids are going to the same school as your son? Did they flunk several times or is your son really smart? How are they in the same school? Did any of this get reported to the school? Also, shouldn't you wait until you're divorced to date? That doesn't seem healthy.

What are you talking about? She could have had her first kid at the age of 16 (for example), and he would be 21 years old today. She is 37 years old now. Do the math.

That right there.
Is your boyfriend seen at the school alot? Why is your dating life being talked about at school and who's doing the talking? I'm less concerned about who you sleep with and more concerned about the bullying towards your son. How does your son feel about your boyfriend?
