That age gap is a problem too. I have been in that same situation when I dated a girl 5 years younger than me. Although the circumstances were probably different from yours, I was also deeply in love. After 2 years of dating, then proposing, it seemed that love and hope had paid off. Two months later, she called and broke off the engagement because she was now dating another man. After that, I never heard from her again. I guess at that age, women do not know what they truly want.

Another question you should ask yourself, but don't have to answer: If she cheated on him to be with you, how do you know she won't do the same to you?

If you have high hopes and fail, prepare for the long fall.

That's true what you said about Jack Handy. But knowing how that environment can drive someone to insanity, maybe those were really his "Deep Thoughts."

I bet the area around Roswell is good for going out and doing some thinking. Funny how powerful love is and what it can do. Follow your heart and trust your gut, and you can do no wrong. Good luck
