People in Marriages/Long-Term-Relationships with a 8 to 13 year age gap.

What are your experiences? Specifically when it's someone close to a decade younger than you.

Great experience. My wife is only 6 years younger than me though not quite as big of gap as you may be wanting to hear.

The best feeling in the world is looking around at women I went to school with, and then realizing that my wife still looks 6x fresher than them always. lol

I will be 37 next month, my wife is 27. We've been together since she was 21. Experience has been great. The expect lack of life experience comes into play at times, but she is very intelligent and has a great job. She's always been fun to be around and she's loyal.

As you get older, differences in ages mean less and less. My wife is 7 years younger than me, isn't a big deal at all.
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

And you brahs are banking on the fact that when your lady gets to your age, or "ladies you went to school with age" you'll be significantly older so it won't bother you as much?

This is all really refreshing to hear. In regards to the bolded do you have any examples? What was it like dating her from 21 to 25? Did you have to guide her through things or did she already know what path her life was on?

I figured as much. 57 dating 50. Isn't as odd 30 dating 23.

She always knew she wanted to be a therapist but she was very naive and had the “I’m gonna fix everyone and my company will value me” mindset. I tried to explain the reality that a company sees you only as a number. She had
To learn the hard way however. Eventually she was able to stop taking things so personally and treat work as a means to enjoy life, and that she isn’t defined by her job.

That and just basic life stuff. Paying bills, taxes, car maintenance, etc. Her parents were wealthy so she never had to really learn that stuff. She was just young and inexperienced.

Wife is 5 years older than me but we didn’t get married until I was in my late 30s so by then it didn’t matter
