My wife is 26 1/2 years younger than I am. We’ve been happily married for almost 18 years - and have two children 9 and 7 years old. My only worry is not being there for her and our kids for another ten years. That’s the very large price younger spouses pay for marrying us older folks.

We do have a wonderful marriage, though.

The love of my life was 24 years older than I was. But what a man!! Omgosh.

I was in my late 40s and 50s and he was.....24 years older. Time of my life.

Good for you Chain. I won't say how much younger my Filipina is than me, but it is MORE than 26 and 1/2 years. I think it is great. 2nd Div, from the little research I have done, most Asian women DO care about age differences, but the majority of Philippine women do not. Some do of course, but most think age equal wisdom. The Philippines is different than most, much to my good fortune.
