We have two long-time friends, Paul and Mary, who recently split up. Paul has reconnected with Sally, It said that they met each other on the club &Cougarconnecting (dot com) - Sally’s 70 years old. Paul is 46. My husband and I recently hosted a dinner party and invited Paul. During dinner, Paul asked me why I didn’t invite Sally. I said, without thinking, “I'm uncomfortable seeing you with someone else so soon, and I have a problem with the age thing.” He let it go, but later told a mutual friend that he won't accept any invitations from any of us unless Sally is invited, too. Our circle of friends ranges in age from 41 to 51 – I just could not imagine subjecting them (or me) to dinner with a 70-year-old woman. I find it really creepy. Paul is handsome and successful and, if anything, we expected a rebound relationship with a twentysomething babe, which would honestly be a bit more comfortable. How should I handle this?
