My husband and I will soon celebrate our 32nd wedding anniversary; I'm 53, he's 69. The 16 yr. difference in our ages has never been a problem. I was 22 when we met. I had always dated men older than me, because guys my age had not matured as fast as I did. We have had our bad times, as most couples do,
but I wouldn't change a thing in our relationship. Age is a state of mind, and if both parties are comfortable in the relationship, then the heck with all the outside opinions. I am concerned that the guy in this situation is only 18; most guys that age are not mature enough to be married to anyon, let alone a lady with children his age. This should be interesting!!!!
