[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a woman that has been married for 20 years, and we have a 12 year age gap. We married when I was in mid-20s. I probably have daddy issues (father abandoned us), DH is wealthy, and I also experienced something very traumatic right before we started dating, so was looking to feel safe and liked that DH seemed normal and settled. So yes - I think people are correct when they see people in these relationships to assume there are underlying issues that bring people together. DH likes intelligent women, but he also wants someone attractive and doesn't find post-menopausal women to be attractive because I think he assumes that the sex wouldn't be good. Now that I'm in my 40s, this worries me and I wish there was someway I could stop menopause from happening. From an intellectual standpoint, I think he may have been happier with someone his own age. Also, even with ED medication, older men can't completely satisfy younger women. Despite all that, we have had a wonderful marriage, and I consider him my best friend.[/quote]

Yikes. I thought the whole point of being the much younger partner was that you'd always be perceived as the hot young thing. You shouldn't be the one worried about aging if you're 12 years younger than your spouse.[/quote]

Actually, she should be. If he feels old, not wanted and not intellectually challenged, his cheating is highly likely. My exH was 11 years older, he cheated on me with a woman his age (post menopausal)[/quote]
