Ingrid Mecoros, who is a thirty-one-year-old was married to Carlos for the last twenty-three years. However, their marriage was not smooth sailing as they always had arguments especially about the age difference between the two. It was hard for Ingrid because she always felt that age should matter not just to her but also to Carlos. And even though their relationship had a different dimension compared to other couples, it was still worth celebrating their union despite the age difference.
As time passed by, Ingrid became more mature and learned how to deal with her marital issues despite her age. She has also become more understanding and appreciative of the fact that age does not define who we are as a person. She has come to realize that love is not only based on age but also our experiences during our childhood.
