Nine years is not an issue if both are above a certain age...arbitrarily I'll suggest 25.
How many years of age a person is, is less important than how many years they have left.
I'd disagree with that one...do you want someone 65y.o around you when you are 40? Even if you should die at the same day? I didn't think so
If a 40 year old hooks up with a 20 year old and the older one lives to 100 and the younger to the age of 80, the match was right on.
I guess this question about women of 40 y.o. (they live longer), and a boy is gonna be 20...I wonder how boy's mom will react to such an union???
It doesn't matter how long it takes to live, but it does matter who you live with. If I don't want to be with someone 10 years older than me, I'd assume 10 years younger than me will think the same....no matter how they justify the choice
