[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For big age differences, which I consider to be 10 years or greater, I always think it's that the man is rich, or the woman is foreign and wants citizenship, or the woman is just not that attractive and can't find a man her own age (it IS much easier to find an older man than a man your own age).    I would never articulate this out  loud, I mind my own business about it, but this is what I am thinking when I see a big age difference...[/quote]

Really? I was 22 when I met my then-36 year old husband.  We met at work, and while he was "rich" compared to my just-out-of-college lifestyle, he wasn't like old rich oil tycoon rich.  I was (and still am) attractive and no trouble dating guys my own age, but really enjoyed it when I started dating my husband.  We went interesting places instead of playing beer pong in someone's group home basement.  I think there's a difference in marrying someone who has adult children that are your age than a big gap when you are relatively young.  It's been 15 years, 2 kids and life is pretty damn great for us.[/quote]
