How would you react if your friend, a 60-year old woman, married a mid-twenty something year old man?

Ewww.

That's not fair but Ewww.

Mainly because I am close to my father and anyone who reminds me of a 'dad' is Ewwww.

That and I would think they both are using each other, which is none of my business. I cant see them having an equal partnership kind of marriage but not everyone wants/needs that.

I would wonder what they have in common, but good for them if they found true love.

Your dad is a 60 year old woman?

I was making a parallel of anyone reminding me of my parents... i'm a woman so I chose the opposite sex.

As far as anycoupling any gender I would think yes, they cant be having a real partnership. I think marriage is a serious commitment. I would think maybe they can just be in a LTR.

I would congratulate her on winning the lottery. I would be curious about what a 20 year old man could possibly see in a 60 year old woman. Does the 60 year old woman at least look like Christie Brinkley?

I know a couple that met when he was 24 and she was around 55. They're still together 5 years later. They have a ton of interests in common. He said he can't relate to most people his age, most aren't mature enough. Of course, she was very uneasy about it when it started to look like they were falling in love, but he convinced her. So, whatever. That big an age difference is pretty unusual, though.

If that woman ain't from Christie Brinkley's gene pool, dude must be marrying her because she is Donald Trump rich.
