63 year old man confesses the love story he lives with his youngest, 40 years old, wife, who is not with him for the money.

"I was 60 years old. I had just retired and retired to my cottage in the Dominican Republic to spend the rest of my life in peace. My children have grown up, with the former woman I have been separated for three years now so I was living free from stress and obligations. My only responsibility was the eight stray dogs I had adopted.

One day, while fooling around with a group of animal lovers on Facebook, I saw a post by Alex and sent her a message. Although he was only 20 years old and living in the USA, he answered me. Gradually, our online communications turned into overnight telephone conversations until one day I invited her to visit me.

After asking the permission of her mother, who is 10 years younger than me, she made the decision and came to meet me up close. In less than a year, and since he never left the Dominican Republic, he married me!

However, until we exchanged vows, we faced the embarrassment our relationship caused to others. Our friends, both hers and mine, wondered if it made sense to get married. My sons, both educated, liberal and intelligent, did not know how to manage being over six years older than the young woman of their father. My mother, again, reacted to the news of our marriage with horror and disgust while Alex's mother, whom I had ended up adoring, was just as anxious as my family.

But what forced us the most was the stereotypical impression that we had entered into a "relationship of interest" - that is, that I offer to the newer woman my financial support in exchange for sex. But I did not need to get married for sex and she did not need to get married for money, even though that was exactly what everyone thought.

Only a few who know us - our friends and close relatives - know the truth. THE woman She is a successful painter for me and I retired from a long career in real estate to finally dedicate myself to writing.

We have long since stopped paying attention to the small humiliations we face every day. We have not been to a restaurant even once and no one has asked us what my daughter will order. And where to decide woman let me treat her to dinner, with her own money: the waiter will not take her seriously when she asks for the bill.

But at a time when almost half of all marriages end in divorce, a long-term relationship that not only survives but is happy will rarely be called into question. I hope to live long enough to see this happen in ours.
