I'm 35 and he's 46. Married at 25. It's honestly perfect. He was a mature, stable earner by the time we got married and we started a family young - now expecting our 4th. But my career has thrived because his financial stability allowed me flexibility and the kind of childcare/support I needed to thrive professionally. I'm a big fan of the 10 year age gap thing, I swear most women are a decade ahead of their male peers.

You know that is going to change as he ages, right?


For her as well. Thanks for playing.

I'm 35 and he's 51 We met when I was 26.

It's clearly not a sugar baby situation because he has always been a lot more attractive than me.

Nope. But in my 20s I always dated men at least 10+ years older. I loved older men.

Couldn't imagine being 45 and having a husband now in his late 50s.

I'm 41, husband is 52. But he is very athletic, looks much younger (he's asian, so good genes). I don't think age difference is that obvious in our case. We have 2 kids.

Wow, so many haters! Why do you all so passionately care if someone is married to someone much older/younger??

This is why I (early 60's) have no desire to start dating someone now.

They will likely be in their 70's and need a LPN any day now. No thank you.


My mil is 60s and her boyfriend is 81 I think and they want to move in together. Seems like a bad idea for that reason but it’s her life.

I’m 58 and my husband is 69 and he still has the sexual energy of an energizer bunny with no medical assistance needed. I’m not one to test if he can go every day or multiple times on one occasion but a couple of times a week he is as good as he was 35 years ago.

Have fun when he is in his 70's and 80's.

Not sure why younger wives cannot see this phase coming.

Would ANY of them have married a much older man who was poor????????

Just wondering if there is an association there...

64 here, she is 52. It's actually perfect for us.


Says the old man in the marriage.

I see you speak for her also.

Same but my respect is only for when they meet after 32. Can't get down with anything before that and it just seems weird to me.
