Age Gap Relationships

seven-day-weekend

My son is 8.5 years older than his partner. He is 39 and she is 31, but they got together when she was 19 and he was 27. It has never been a problem.

We have a gap but most people get it the wrong way round.

The health side has been covered but for the healthy it is about work life balance as you get older and approach retirement.

It can help a lot if you can plan(finances permitting) to make that gap smaller, the older works a bit longer(maybe part time) and the younger finishes a bit earlier or starts to wind down to free up more time as well.

If that planning is not done you increase the risk that health will overtake.
