Well, she is nearly ten years older than him and hasn't aged all that gracefully either. No matter how well they might have fitted otherwise age gaps in that direction seem to usually put at least some strain on relationships.
Nah. I don't think that is inherently true it all. I think that if she looked less.... Plastic ...that would be a bigger issue than inherently a woman to man age gap. That's silly.
"According to research, while there is no definitive "success rate" for age gap relationships with older women, studies suggest that when managed well, these relationships can be just as successful as those with smaller age gaps, with some studies even indicating higher satisfaction levels among women in such partnerships, despite facing potential social stigma; however, a significant age gap can still be associated with increased challenges due to life stage differences and societal disapproval."
So a long as both people aren't particularly swayed by other people's opinions about it, it had no difference than if a dude were 10yrs older.
Word, yep at 55 that would be a thing...
I assumed it wasn't since why would they date as a solidified couple let alone get engaged w/out that obvious conversation and being in the same page.

Unless he still wants to have a child, or two. His new woman should still be young enough for that.

Might not be something that was at first a conscious desire for him, but started to bother him later.
