My dad was 9 years older than my mom when they got married (WWII before he went over to Germany)

My dad had issues. My mom was the first person he dated & he was the first person my mom dated. The age difference not an issue really till older. My dad died of congestive heart failure at 70. That left my mom to figure out how to do life on her own because all of their marriage, she depended on him for almost everything.

Just numbers say that USUALLY the older person dies first leaving quite a few years without them depending on the age difference. The thing is, that if you have a wonderful relationship....that is more important than age difference since there are no guarantees in life anyway.

Lol....I was the same age as my EX & it was a bad relationship from the beginning.....so I go for focus on relationship over age difference
