During a motorbike taxi ride, an 80-year-old woman forgot her handbag containing about 60 million VND in cash and then the 24-year-old driver decided to find it and return it. A while later, the couple became a couple, surprising many people.
Age-gap love stories always attract the online community. Recently, a touching love story of 80-year-old Catherine Thomas in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania and a young motorbike taxi driver. The old lady said that in mid-2023, she took a motorbike taxi driven by 24-year-old George. In a hurry to go to work, Catherine quickly got off the car but forgot her bag containing 6 million shillings (about 60 million VND).
The 84-year-old couple fell in love with the 24-year-old driver despite all the criticism.
The 24-year-old driver, George, did not notice until he got home that the female customer had left her bag behind, but because it was raining heavily and it was dark, he waited until the next day to return it. When he arrived at Catherine's house, he learned that she had left for a trip that morning. Many days later, George continued to look for her but could not find her.
After finishing work, Mrs. Catherine returned home without remembering anything about the bag of money. It was only when the driver arrived at her house that she was surprised to see the young driver come to her house to return the property.
“He brought the bag back and instantly won my heart,” said the woman, who has been widowed for many years.
After that chance meeting, the two fell in love despite the age difference. A few months later, Catherine confessed her love to the 56-year-old man and introduced George to her five children, aged 35 to 43. When they heard that their mother was dating a younger man, the children were initially surprised by the age gap, but in the end, they supported their mother's new happiness.
As for young George, he said it took him a while to think before agreeing to Catherine. "I was surprised by her proposal. People wonder why I would date someone the same age as my grandmother, but now I don't care when I find the woman of my life," the 24-year-old said.

Deciding to date after a short time of getting to know each other, they performed romantic acts together like newlyweds and shared them on social networks.
Despite the gossip from netizens, despite the doubts of outsiders, Mrs. Catherine always finds ways to prove that her young lover is not a "gold digger". The 80-year-old woman always affirms that life would be meaningless if George did not appear.
Not only that, George's sister Mary could not accept her brother's choice. She thought the 56-year age gap was too big. "They are confusing love with madness," said Marry.
Only then, when Catherine and George's love story was shared on social networks, it caused many mixed opinions. Many people agreed and supported the couple because they believed that love cannot be hindered by age, anyone can find true love at the right time. For each person, what is important is how both feel about each other. God bless them."; "She is a happy woman to find love at that age"; "This love is legal, let them be happy."...
Some people doubt "whether there is really love between an old lady and a boy the same age as her grandson"...
