I´m more curious is age of menopause has an influence. I sailed through and last April was ready to celebrate over it. We are walking pheromone  machines and I wonder if I´m giving off a different cocktail of pheromones.

The wife is 5 years younger than I, 53 + 48.  I agree with OP, I also think menopause has a lot to do with us.

6 months younger... OW(s) were, are? his age... high school buddies.

I quickly counted through the posts so far and I'm getting 10 wives older than husbands out of 22 eligible posts.
I may have missed one or two because I did this in a hurry. I've got a little over 45%. I know that there isn't enough info
for a real number, still......... A long way from 12% isn't it? Is there nothing to it?

RY,

To be honest, my H had a much more difficult time with me turning 40, than I did. I have read this same topic on another forum I used to participate in. The problem with MLC is everything is so skewed.....no real tangible consistencies.

For what it's worth, I recently heard a clinician say that he felt MLC would be listed in the DSM (Diagnostic Statistical Manual--used for diagnoses by psychologists/psychiatrists) the next time they come out with a new edition. It would likely fall into a depressive disorder, but any validation that it exists would be great.

I'm 11 months younger and OW is 5 years younger but looks ALOT older than me by at least 10 years!
