51 year old woman in love with a 29 year old man....Someone please help me!!!

I am very much in love with a man 22 years younger than I am and he feels the same way about me. The reason could be that I don't look my age at all. I have been mistaken for 32. But that does not change reality. I am 51 and he is 29. He knows how old I am and he does not care. Even his parents, who are in their late 50s and are only about 8 years older than I am, seem to approve of me. Should I keep holding back or should I respond while he is still pursuing me? I would hate to lose the chance of a relationship with him, but I am afraid of what my circle of friends and neighbors might say about me. I don't know what to do! Tweet
