trouble finding other women attractive after spending time with a certain woman

She may be super hot and all that but that's besides the point.

There's a way that it is beside the point. She definitely understands me in a way that almost no one else does, and I have more in common with her on a certain level than I do anyone else, with I think the sole exception of my best friends, and really maybe even just one of them. It's like this, I get a lot of compliments on my face, and my body, and even my name (it's a kind of unique name) but that isn't me. If I lost my face I'd still be me. If I lost my body I'd still be me. My name is just a sound people use to identify me, if they made a different sound to identify me I'd still be me. The "me" underneath all of that is where the connection with her is. It's not something I can really untangle. Nor something that I want to. That said I don't feel the "age gap" at all, or care. Neither of us are overly conventional people, and I don't think either of us know anyone who would care, or who would admit it if they did.
