Saw this thread (original post) and hesitated to post...but here goes...
I'm a younger man married to a somewhat older woman (time has made the age difference moot). We met at 23/31 and married at 24/32. She had given up looking for a life's parter and I was preoccupied with other issues when me bumped into one another. We're about to celebrate our 26th anniversary (y'all can do the math).
Naiveté is a special gift of mine. Our relationship had really started to blossom before I learned she was eight years older. At first I was taken aback, but the fact I had seen a similar relationship grow to success earlier gave me courage to continue. I'm as confident in our mutual choice today as I was the day we married.
I think most people would describe us as a boring couple, especially now that depression and other stuff has floored me. As it stands, my health is giving out faster than hers.
For all who are seeking, may you find "your heart's choice."
