Friend Judging Young Dad Dating Older Woman With a 'Humpback' Slated

A woman has been slammed online for being "judgemental" about a big age gap romance.

In a popular post to U.K.-based Mumsnet, the user who goes by the anonymous name Noteverybodylives, referred to a young man in his late 20s or early 30s as 'person A' and his girlfriend who is in her 50s as 'person B'.

She explains: "Person A is young, very good-looking, has a good body, and has one young child. Person B is not good-looking, does not have a good body, and has a teenager and an older child.

"Why would person A want to be with person B?" she asked.

The post continued: "Person A could have their pick but has chosen person B who would struggle to find anyone half decent. Person B is not rich. What could it be? Could it actually be love or do your alarm bells start ringing?"

The original poster reveals more information when responding to comments.

She states that person B has a "permanent humpback and walks hunched over with a cane" and person A works out in the gym and wouldn't be "ashamed to show off" his body.

She also points out they moved in together after six months and squashes any theories behind person A being a golddigger as she states "person B is not rich".

The relation between the original poster and the couple is unclear, some Mumsnet users have implied it is person B.

But the user has responded to say she doesn't know person A very well and knows the woman through her teenage daughter.

The OP commented: "I sound very ageist and like I care about looks which is not true, but it's hard to explain unless you saw them together. I just feel his intentions are suspicious purely based on the fact that they are so opposite. But I can't put my finger on what he would be in this relationship for if he didn't genuinely care for her."

She Might Make Him 'Feel Good'

Newsweek reached out to Love and Relationship coach Amber Marine.

"Many people would suspect that someone is after something when they see a relationship that is not the 'norm', but actually, love is a feeling."

"A female who may be very attractive may be utterly boring or self-obsessed and this lady could just make him 'feel good.' It is hard to make a judgment on shallow facts such as looks or money, it could very well be genuine 'love' or he may be tired of younger women who he may have experienced to be shallow or gold diggers.

"Perhaps this put him off women his own age thus perhaps he wants someone who is more mature. He may very well love her for what she is on the inside and she may have qualities he finds rare.

"In a non-genuine relationship, someone may ask for money, or have sex and then disappear. If that's not the case then you have to assume that it is most likely genuine."

Over 100 people have commented on the post and many are backing the age gap relationship.

One user wrote: "Maybe they just really like each other, same interests, same values. If someone can make me laugh then their physical attractiveness increases, maybe it's something like that."

Another said: "I actually think person B is the original poster and they are lacking in confidence. If this is the case, try to think more highly of yourself. Love is love."

Another user added: "Sorry if this comes across as abrupt or rude, but I still don't get it. What are these people to you or are you truly an outsider as you profess? Family member, patient, a close friend?

"Let's forget age and physical appearance (and you've already said it's not a money thing so not a gold digger/sugar daddy scenario, and even if it was, it's still nobody's business) so why on earth has it got to 'sit right' with you?

"Unless you feel one of them lacks the mental capacity to choose to be in the relationship and is somehow being taken advantage of, I don't see what possible concern it can/should be to you."

Newsweek was not able to verify the details of the case.
