I'm Dating a Guy Almost 20 Years Younger Than Me

 I'm 45. I've been through two unsuccessful marriages. I drive a red Camaro. I guess you can say I'm in the throes of a major midlife crisis. I've been checking a lot of things off of my bucket list. One of them was to try my hand at stand-up comedy. The first thing you learn in Stand-up 101 is "write what you know." I've had a lot of life experiences one could label as interesting, but my current dating situation is certainly fodder for comedy -- and maybe it shouldn't be.
