CONFESSION time: When I read about grandma of three Sharon Hawkins, from the US, dating a man 28 years younger than her, my heart was incandescent with . . . envy.
This clever lass, who is 50, smartly lowered the age range on her dating app to 19 in search of a new man and Bingo! She met Perry, who is 22. They now plan to marry.

I can well do without the marriage bit, but the idea of a younger man is perilously appealing.
It’s precarious because of all the potential for judgment, the probable public outrage and its capacity for causing upset on the domestic front.

Dating apps have completely changed the dynamics of relationships in the past few years. Nowadays, a man and a woman can connect to each other in a matter of seconds with just a few taps on the phone. And if it’s a ‘match’, the two can go on dates and even live happily ever after if they choose to.
If age is a factor, apps even allow a user to change their preference in order to filter search results before a match.
