[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My cousin met and started dating her then late 20s (maybe early 30s) husband when she was a high school junior (so 16?)

They got married after she graduated.  High school.

All of her teenage friends were dating 20-30 year old men at her wedding.

I was in college at the time and thought it was the weirdest thing.

She was from a smaller town in the south, not too far from Virginia.

This was in the 90s. They have been married over 25 years now.

Apparently this was common in their community. He was a professional, white collar, college educated guy and she was from a "good" family.

They were not particularly conservative Christian in this town (like Duggar-ish).

The women had jobs, dressed normally, cut their hair. People dated like normal people. They drank, danced and listened to rock n roll.  My cousin got her degree after they got married, then had kids.

It was just considered normal for an older established guy to date or marry a high school girl. It is the way their parents did it and their grandparents did it. No big deal to them.[/quote]
