| My former boss. 15 years difference. They married in 2007, and she was 41 with two high school age kids from her first marriage. Within less than a year of marrying they had a kid together. They're still together and doing fine as far as I can tell (from social media). |

| My brother's wife is I think 15 years older than him? I knew her age at one point but I'm not 100% sure anymore. They're obnoxiously obsessed with each other. Seems to be working. |

Dh's closest friend's wife is 10 years older. Met when they were 25 and 35. They have 2 kids together.
I know of two other relationships where the woman is 15+ years old. In one case, the man was divorced with kids and didn't want any more. In the other, the man didn't want kids and the woman already had 2 older kids by the time they met. All are still together. |

I think 12-13 years if I have their ages right. I love them both. They seem to have a successful marriage, too!

That’s the difference between my brother and his wife. He’s 11 years younger than I am and she’s a couple of years older, so we get along really well. |

| Wow I was coming on here to say 5 years, and I was thinking that would be one of the larger gaps. Hah! Guess I was wrong. I wonder if it's because most of my friend group got married in their 20s or very early 30s- there is a huge difference between 21 and 31 for example, but perhaps not such a big difference between 45 and 55? I don't know. |

| When I was 22, I dated a woman that was 42. Hey, we both had fun and didn’t care about the age difference. |

same except I think I was closer to 25 and she was mid 40s. It was great until she wanted a serious relationship. Three kids from her marriage oldest being 18, I wasn't interested. If she didn't have children I might have been interested in taking it the next step |

The most I’ve seen IRL is 10 years.
The most ever is Macron. |
