I am older than dh. My Mum is older than my Dad and my Nana was older than my Papa.

Oh, dsis is older than her dh and dsil older than dbro.

My other dbro bucks the family trend by being older than his dwife.

SquidgyMummy · 23/03/2014 17:33

3 weeks (DP is older)

Why would you want to talk GrinGrinGrinGrin

ilikeyourface · 23/03/2014 17:44

5 years, and dd constantly reminds me , as she allways says , 'me and harry styles have the same age gap as you and dad'

Chottie · 23/03/2014 17:46

midwifeandmum · 23/03/2014 17:47

22 years. im 28 hes 50 and we have 2 young girls 4 and 2

CointreauVersial · 23/03/2014 18:06

I'm just goggling at the 31 year age gap. I cannot envisage finding someone a generation older than me attractive, not ever. Not that I'm doubting that it works for some, of course!

That would put DH at 78. Shock

BabyMummy29 · 23/03/2014 18:18

I agree Cointreau - that would put me with an 83 year old - doesn't bear thinking about!

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 23/03/2014 18:24

It would put me with someone a good bit older than my dad, which would seem strange. Still, don't knock it till you've tried it!

CatThiefKeith · 23/03/2014 18:25

Dh is (just) 29 and I am 40. Works for us!

Except for the occasional conversation about what we were doing at certain times (I left secondary school in 1990, the year he started Primary school) I don't even notice it anymore. Smile

PurpleSproutingBroccoli · 23/03/2014 18:25

I'm 1 year older than him.

SnookyPooky · 23/03/2014 18:26

12 years, he's 56, I'm 44.

Baileyscoffeeandcampfires · 23/03/2014 18:29

Dh is 7 years older. Not a problem now but was when we first got together as I was 15

pinkflaming0 · 23/03/2014 18:55

There is that only1 Smile

Was tempted still am but I doubt he's ever seen a woman over 40 naked let alone one who's had 3 kids!

crestfall · 23/03/2014 19:37

I'm 4 months older, both 32 now

FabBakerGirl · 23/03/2014 19:46

I am 2 months and a week older than my husband.

Perfect person - not perfect age gap I think people mean.

Rainbow13 · 23/03/2014 19:50

9 years

I'm 27 my Husband is 36

iggy155 · 23/03/2014 20:03

9 years. I'm 33 and DH is 42, and yes we are very happy Wink

conorsrockers · 23/03/2014 20:07

We're 12 years too ...

Joysmum · 23/03/2014 20:12

I'm older than him by 15 months. Out of our handful of close friends 4/5 have an age difference of more than 15 years and all are very strong.

ohldoneedtogetagrip · 23/03/2014 20:16

3 days..he is older (only just tho!) Grin

missmagnum · 23/03/2014 20:17

He is 13 years older but acts about 13 years younger Grin.

I am a step grandma and only mid thirties!

Cleorapter · 23/03/2014 20:17

FortyFacedFuckers · 23/03/2014 21:33
