Quote From: kar_lotta My youngest son married a girl 10 years older than he at 19. It was one of the worst mistakes he made and I wish I'd made more objection. She was divorced with three kids. She cheated on him constantly, screamed constantly and unfaithful always. Her own sisters and ex-husband warned him, but he wouldn't listen to anyone. She finally bankrupted him and thankfully, he got a divorce. I don't advocate divorce, but there are times it's necessary. Even after they separated, she was running up bills and having them sent to my son. He had to get his lawyer to get that stopped. He was in the Army and when he was in the field, she "entertained" the troops. Never paid any bills, no idea what she did with the pay checks. All I can say, is, PLEASE, STOP AND THINK THIS THROUGH. I agree with your family, she's wanting a meal ticket and she'll continue with her wild ways. I hope you do a lot of praying before doing anything. Good luck, if you go through with this sham of a marriage, you'll need more than luck.
Dr.Phil,
I was 39 and my husband was 19 when we married. My son was 18 and my daughter was 13. We have been married 22 years and have a very good marriage.This was my third marriage my other two husbands beat on me and ran around on me. We don't argue if we have a disagreement we say what we have to say and leave it at that. I don't think age makes a difference when you love someone ,love has no age difference.We have never separated and we are devoted to each other.
Happily Married to a youger man,
Ann
