[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH and I are 13 years apart. We have been together, and very happy, for over 20 years. Our age difference has never been an issue aside from my occasional annoyance with boomer nonsense the past few years. But that is a cultural difference -- a generation one -- not an age one. They aren't exactly the same thing.

We are both very attractive and met at work as we are both lawyers -- if that is "equal footing" for you, whatever that means. [/quote]

She has a large trust fund (and good start to her career) while he is a successful attorney. I mentioned the equal footing because I think some people assume a younger woman is after money and that is not the dynamic here [/quote]
She would be very hard-pressed to find a man of equal looks and financial footing who is also in his 20s. The vast majority of men in her income bracket (let's say top 10%) are in their 50s and up, so once you filter those men out, you're realistically talking a fellow trust fund kid.

That is the trouble with women chasing Mr. Perfect... Odds are, they won't find him, and if they do, why would he choose her over the dozens of other eligible women he communicates with?

You should thank your DD for being wise and doing well for herself in choosing this man, rather than wasting her youth on Tinder hookups or chasing some fictitious top 1% man. Most women her age lack that prudence and pay the price.[/quote]
