[quote=Anonymous]40- something woman here - I've wondered about this more on the long-term basis. My DH is about 8 years older than me and, most of the time, we have the same cultural references (Gen X). But sometimes he throws out things and my kids and I look at him and it reminds me of my FIL - meaning, he's talking about some actor, etc. who is probably more familiar to Boomers. Point being, there are generational differences that can leave some gaps in understanding. Other age-related pitfalls long-term would be worries of the younger spouse that you're signing up to be a caregiver to the older one sooner than you'd otherwise be doing it for a peer. Or that he'd die decades before you. The other piece surely would be overall life experience, but that's not always important, depends on the person.[/quote]
