Just two thoughts -- and neither is very deep...
My oldest daughter married a young man her age when she was a senior and he was just graduated from college.
They are divorced. I'm not sure either of them was mature enough to put up with the other's immaturity. Make sense?
Tomorrow she is marrying a man about fifteen years her senior. I feel much more comfortable.
My sister-in-law is married to a man who is twenty years older than she. He is now approaching what we would consider "old" and beginning to experience health problems. She is "middle aged" and will probably outlive him by a long time. I'm sure that is something she does not like to think about -- but they have had nearly thirty years of very happy married life to this point. Nothing wrong with that.
