I met a wonderful man after years of running into jerks. He's very mature and successful. Our chemistry upon meeting was so magnetic and continued on with a strong undeniable physical and mental attraction. He bragged about me being a good catch and he always mentioned how intelligent and attractive I was. He also discussed how he never dated anyone that he had such a chemistry with besides me. We were just a man and a woman who found each other, had a ton in common and were crazy about one another. The problem is that I was dishonest about my age. We dated for 3 months before he found out that I was 9 years older than I said I was. He was also dishonest about his age however. He is actually 2 years younger than he said he was. So that actually puts his age at 26 and mine at 39. (By the way, because of my genes, I look and have the figure of a 25 year old). I never revealed to him that I knew about his real age. After dating him for a while, age didn't play a factor for me. After finding out that we were so compatible, i was afraid to reveal my age assuming that he would not want to date me. Now that he found out that I deceived him about my age, he refuses to talk to me. He said that he needs space to think about everything. He said that I hurt and deceived him. It's been two weeks and I have not spoken to him since. I received one text from him stating that there was a lot going through his head and he needed time to get his thoughts together. It's been two weeks and I'm scared that I messed up a wonderful relationship. I'm not even sure if he'll ever speak to me again. I love him and have expressed my deepest feelings on the matter and have explained why I lied about my age. What should I do? What advice do you have for me?
