[quote=Anonymous]My DH and I are over 10 years apart, and it gets ... attention? Noticed? I felt like writing "side-eye" instead of "attention" but realized that wasn't quite right or fair. This "notice" is from couple friends (most of them friends DH has had since childhood and their wives). Come to think of it, it's really only the wives who seem to notice it or comment on it.

The only relationship I know of with more of an age gap than ours is a friend of ours who married a 33 yr old woman when he was in his late 50s. She came here from a relatively poor country, and sends a lot of money back. She does not work (although to be fair she is a professional and hasn't been able to get licensed here despite trying--I don't think not working was her plan at all). The friend group does not talk about this, but I'm pretty sure we all ... notice it. They do, fwiw, seem quite and happy and even well-matched. Probably more well-matched than most couples. They have been married over 10 years now; we didn't think it would last that long but it seems to be permanent. Good for them. Fwiw, yes, he has a %$# ton of money, and yes he is an odd duck that was unable to connect with American women his own age, let alone marry one. He's a handful and we marvel at her patience and ability to handle him. But again -- I am pretty sure they are quite happy. [/quote]
