“She is just giving me a ride to/from work" was often the excuse if people saw ust together but honestly no one cared. The fact she WASN’T a teacher made it no big deal.
That is the big issue, and I get it. I never felt weird, age wasn’t an issue. But I can also see where others could be taken advantage of.
We ended up dating for 2 years and things ended due to life logistics. Was oddly the least crazy person I ever dated and we ended up friends after. Still bump into each other once in a while when I go back home to visit family.
Ah that makes a lot of sense, actually.

I mean, if it’s consensual and there’s no power imbalance it’s nobody’s business
