Carla is basking in the bliss of new love with her boyfriend of six months and by the sounds of things, she is absolutely smitten with him. 

So, why then write into Stacey and J Sbu for #TheFixer? 

Well, Carla made the discovery that her boyfriend and her father did not only grow up together and at were at some stage friends in high school, but that her two uncles, her dad's brothers, were in the same class as her boyfriend. 

Yikes! 

So, some context. Carla's boyfriend is in his early sixties and is almost thirty years her senior.

Listen as Carla shares her story in her own words in the podcast below: 

Upon the discovery, Carla's boyfriend has since suggested that she let her father and uncles know who he is. 

Carla's family are aware that she is dating and that the man she is dating may be a few years older than her, however they had not been in the same room as a couple with them.

He believes that this would be the right thing to do, a courtesy if you will. 

Carla, though, disagrees. She believes that as an adult she does not need to explain herself and questions whether it matters that her boyfriend and her dad may have been friends before. 

What are your thoughts on the matter? Do you think Carla should speak to her dad and tell him that she is dating a man that he once considered a friend in high school?
