Knowing the score on April 20, 1998…
Dear Breakup Girl,
I’m 48 and I just met a 33-year-old Swiss cellist who says I “stimulate him in every way possible.” Is it ridiculous to think of having any more than a “good time” with him?

Dear KS,
Well, you know what they say about Swiss cellists. I mean, I hope you do, because Breakup Girl does not. Perhaps you’re alluding to the age difference? Well, if you like him, give him a chance — just conduct yourselves adagio at first.
Love,
Breakup Girl
I am 46 and my husband of 3 years is 33. Any hang-ups about our age difference are all mine. He thinks I’m amazing. We were aquaintances for two years before we developed a friendship so trusting we decided we did not want to let it end. I wouldn’t dismiss the idea out of hand, only make sure you can build a solid foundation of friendship and respect.
