Texas Woman Who Used To Be A Lesbian Falls For A Man 30 Years Older

Aliyah Coleman, of Cibolo, Texas, never imagined falling in love and being in a heterosexual relationship. However, she did and is head over heels in love with her 56-year-old colleagues.

Aliyah first met Kenneth Coleman when she started her career as a secondary school teacher in September 2020.

The 26-year-old was instantly attracted to the dad-of-two and it was shocking for her as she has never been interested in women. 

The teacher duo soon became inseparable after a staff night out and now they are happily married after eloping earlier this summer. 

Aliyah said, 'My family and friends weren't shocked by the age gap, they were shocked by the gender.

'I never considered being with a man before, I had just got out of a three-year relationship with a woman.

'But I had a strong connection with him, and it broke me out of the box.'

Aliyah admits 'pursuing' Kenneth for several weeks before they started to date.

But he was 'very professional and private' at work, and wasn't thinking about  a relationship because she was so young compared to him. 

But Aliyah wasn't willing to give up on her love, saying, 'I was intrigued by him and would go out of my way to speak to him more at work.

'I was instantly attracted to his looks, knowledge and throughly enjoyed listening to his stories as he was previously an engineer and travelled the world. 

'I don't think he considered a romantic relationship with me because of the age gap.

'But I have always been told I have an old soul, so I didn't think twice about that.'

Aliyah adds that she knew from the first moment that she wanted to marry Kenneth - saying, 'I knew from the get-go that I wanted to marry him - something I had never felt before.

'He is the first man I have ever dated, and our sex life is amazing.

'His age doesn't make a difference, we do it at least five times per week.'

The loved-up pair became an 'official' couple in October 2020, before Kenneth popped the big question a year later, in October 2021. 

They got married in July 2022 after getting married in Canyonland National Park, Moab, Utah with no family or friends present.

Aliyah said, 'It was a dream come true to spend our special day alone together in nature.'

Though she admits to receiving different reactions to the relationship.

Aliyah said, 'I told my mum, who is 52, about him and she wasn't fazed because she's always joked that I was born 50 years old, as I have never acted my age.

'Thankfully, everyone has been pretty accepting but strangers and some people from work have assumed I am with him for his money.

'However, we are both teachers and earn a decent living. We split everything.

'An age-gap relationship can be hard if you are concerned about other people's opinions, but we don't.'

Aliyah shares that she and Kenneth have a lot in common and they have boarrd games at home and they desire to travel the world.

She said, 'After a few weeks of dating, Kenneth told me he has had a vasectomy which was great news as I have never wanted to be a mother.

'Most of the time we forget about the age gap as we are always having fun.

'Our home is full of games; we have a shuffleboard and a ping pong table.'

But Aliyah admits the thirty year age gap does cause her some concern as she worries about Kenneth's health and their future.  

She said, 'Last year, Keneth developed sepsis and was in intensive care - during that point, I thought all my dreams were going to slip away.

'Now, I over-analyze if he has an ache and pain due to his age.

'But I must remind myself that nobody is guaranteed to live to 100, something could happen to me in my 20s.

'I know of about ten people who have sadly lost their lives to cancer from high school but all of my older relatives are still alive so that does give me peace of mind when I am worrying.'
