My husband is 18 years older than me. My good friend married someone 15 years older than her. We have a lot in common.
- They call your music 'crap' that makes their ears bleed.
- They stop growing hair on their heads and start growing it on their back.
- Suddenly it is your spouse that 'walked 10 miles to school - uphill - both ways'.
- You see an old dude at the store and can't remember if he's a friend of your spouse -- or your dad.
- They feel the need to parent your friends.
- They feel the need to parent you.
- When you have a night of drinking and partying they watch patiently from a table instead of joining you.
- They gripe at you to pick up your clothes.
- And clean under the bed.
- They cash in their retirement counting on you to support them in their Golden Years.
- They see no humor in you kissing them in public - and then calling them Daddy.
- Sex is suddenly PG13
- Yes, they get wrinkly down there... and sag too.
- You're 31 when they turn 50, that's just gross.
- Suddenly the novelty of being a trophy wife wears off and you are just another bad late night joke.
And who said Anna Nicole had it easy?
