Man Confronts Parents About Their 20YO Best Friend, They Call Him Controlling

It’s said that age ain’t nothing but a number, but what happens when the age gap is 40 years? We’re not talking about a romantic relationship this time but rather, a friendship struck up between a couple in their 60s and a 20-year-old woman.

Some may think it’s no big deal but the couple’s son is bothered enough to have turned to strangers on the internet for advice. The man says his parents met the much younger woman at work, and she’s become like furniture in their house. She was even at the family’s intimate Easter celebration. While it could be an innocent friendship, the man is convinced there’s something more sinister at play.

    April is definitely up to something. And has charmed the parents somehow so that they think she can do no wrong. Weird.
