At 78 I am a shade over 5yrs older that my wonderful soul mate, my blondie, but the age difference has never mattered. Age is just a figure and it’s how a person thinks and acts that matters👍
I’ve always preferred older men … and I shall never let Mr M escape me because if he does, now I’m ‘mature’ myself I’d have to ferret in graveyards to find my next older man.
My first wife was four years older than me, my second wife nearly ten years younger. My current bit of fluff is four years younger.
It defies logic for women to be younger than their spouse because men’s life expectancy is always a few years less than a woman’s but that seems to be the way it is. In my seniors club men comprise less than 10% of the members - the average age of members would be over 75 and rising.
