A teenager has been left heartbroken after her mum started treating her like a 'stranger' due to her age-gap relationship. The 19-year-old explained how she started dating a man 12 years her senior, thinking it would be OK as her mum was in an age-gap relationship at her age too.
But rather than support her relationship, her mum condemns it. Taking to Reddit, the teen, who now feels like a 'failure' after her mum's response, said: "I have never felt more upset and disappointed in my mother in my entire life. I am in a 12-year age-gap relationship. I’m 19. We met when I was 19 - he never knew me before that. I initiated it.
"I am incredibly self aware of my relationship. I am incredibly aware of what I was getting myself into when I got into this relationship. I do not consider myself to be overly mature for my age. I know what I’m capable of and what my limits are in life.
