Again, see what Vel said.dullboy said:although i generally agree with your thoughts - how do you explain swolenoles experience? - it's more common than you think...
There is about 11 years between my husband and myself, 11 years, 15 years, not so bad, 23 BIG difference. Still don't think so? Think of a one year old child then an 8 year old child. 7 years can make a whole lot of difference.
An 18 year old, hooking up with a 41 year old divorced man who's already got a teenaged daughter that's a handful? Not only is there no hope of a relationship, it's going to cause MAJOR tension between him and his daughter, no matter WHAT happens.
There were 14 years between my son and my ex-husband's second wife and it was all out WAR, she tried to boss him around and he WAS NOT having it, nope. To this day he "hates that bitch" (his words) and his father was "a fucking moron for marrying her."
