Kate, I wouldn't assume that the young man got out of your date because of your age difference. There are many other reasons he changed his mind, and it may have not had anything do to with you, it could've been more about what was going on in his life.

I don't let the age thing get to me. We know many men our own age only date younger women, but I've dated a few younger ones who didn't care.
