SarahJames Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 I was reading that the average ages at which people get married in the US have increased for both men (avg now: 29) and women (avg: now 27). So, 1) How old were you when you got married (if you are married)? 2) What is the age difference between you and your husband? 3) Age difference between you and your AP? 4) How old was your MM (AP) when he got married? 5) Do you know the age difference between him (MM) and his wife? I guess I'm sort of looking to see if age at marriage, and age differences have any correlation between infidelity, etc. on the larger scale of things! Opinions on the matter?

lilmisscantbewrong Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 Would you also like me to answer for my husband? You know our stats. His xmow was 5 years younger. Her husband was 10 years older than her I believe. I am uncertain when they were married - I think they got married in their thirties. I know it's a third marriage for her and a second marriage for him.

Opinions on the matter? 1. 21, almost 22. 2 I'm under a year older. 3. He's about a month older. 4. They are not married, but have been together for about 8 years (so he was 21?) 5. I think she's 2 years younger. I do think that we were very young when we got married, and that is a factor. All four of us, including OM and his GF were virgins prior being with our SOs, so that may be a factor as well. But there are many who are older, wiser and more experienced than us who have gone through this, so...
happy stillmore Posted December 9, 2013 Posted December 9, 2013 1) How old were you when you got married (if you are married)? 23 2) What is the age difference between you and your husband? H is 5 years older. 3) Age difference between you and your AP? XMM is 9 years older. 4) How old was your MM (AP) when he got married? 23 5) Do you know the age difference between him (MM) and his wife? His W is five years older than him. It is interesting that xMM and I are in similar situations.
MissBee Posted December 9, 2013 Posted December 9, 2013 It seems a lot of people got married fairly young.
Elliotte Posted December 9, 2013 Posted December 9, 2013 I am curious what your source is for these average ages, because coincidentally, I got married at 29, to my wife who was 27!
