      Yes, you’re probably right, but . . . well, there certainly have been a whole lot of nights, a whole lot of parties, a whole lot of er, um, a whole lot of “everything”.  (Cough, cough.)

      No, but both she and I do look extremely young for our ages. Once, she was at a public place with our son who was a teenager at the time and a woman asked her if the two of them were boyfriend and girlfriend.

    I apparently only look younger than my age now that I'm getting old. It never happened to me until fairly recently. :)

    It's not terrible at all!

    I'm not sure it's too great for my son, though. :|

      My wife and I have always joked with each other about which one of us looks younger than the other.

    She: You might get arrested for being with a teenaged girl if people see us out in public together.

    Me: That’ll never happen, they’ll think how nice I am to be taking my mother out to dinner.

    She: I didn’t want to hurt your feelings, but behind your back, people always ask me if you’re my grandfather.

    Me: That’s not what they ask you.  They want to know how an old lady like you got rich enough to pay a handsome young gigolo to escort you everywhere.

    She: You don’t escort me, I’m the one holding you up because you always forget your cane and you can’t remember where you left your walker.

    Me: I’m just with you to lug along your oxygen tanks.

    She: The curfew at the old folks’ home is in one hour, I have to get you back there on time or they’ll withhold your lime jello tomorrow as a penalty.

    Me: I’m sick of carrying your Geritol and your prune juice for you, old lady.

    She: The fire department has ordered me to have them on standby the next time we light all those candles on your birthday cake.

    He: Let me help you across the street, it will be my good deed for the day, Grandma.

    She: Great Grandpa, the only reason I don’t have DMV confiscate your driver’s license is that I’d have to drive you everywhere . . .

    Me: Grrrrrrrrrrrrr.

    She: Grrrrrrrrrrrrr.

    My husband is older than me, so I heard "I didn't know he had a daughter." a lot.  It didn't help that I looked like a teenager when I was in my 20s.  I got married when I was 21, I bought my own house when I was 19, and I got a good-paying job when I was 18, but teenage boys still thought "What high school do you go to?  Maybe we can get together and study sometime." was a good way to start a conversation with me.

    I'm sure your husband didn't appreciate those comments, did he? 

    Of course, some spouses are old enough to be dad/grandpa (or mom/grandma, I'm sure). To each their own.

    lol, My husband teased me about it, but the thing that annoyed both of us was stuff like "I wonder what made him pick her.".  Ugh.   Age gap relationships are normal in my family though, so my stepmom is close to my husband's age and I have a couple of nieces that are older than me.  My parents had me later in life so my  parents are actually old enough to be my grandparents.

    So many reasons for that sort to wonder, though. If you're happy, you're happy, and that's what matters. Even if what makes a legit gold-digger happy is $ and what makes a legit sugar daddy happy is a piece of eye, arm and _____ candy. I don't think it's my place to judge other peoples' happiness. Particularly if they aren't harming anyone else.

    My husband is 8 yrs older than me.  He is only 54 but his hair has been all grey-white for about 10 yrs now. So we used to get that a lot.  But most of the time before people see him they already know it is my husband.
