Marrying an Older Man

Więcej o książce

It's not unusual for women to marry men who are considerably older than themselves. However, when the husband is significantly older than the wife, problems can occur that would not otherwise exist. And these problems increase with the passing years. This book raises the problems but then takes a positive attitude and offers women ways of overcoming potential difficulties and shares with them the experiences of others. The book also looks at why some women are attracted to older men, at what happens when the new father is at an age when most men are becoming grandfathers, and at how the child's relationship with its father can be affected by having a dad who is much older than the father of his or her peers. The problem most feared by women marrying older men is that they will have to face the illness, old age and even death of their partner sooner than if they had married a younger man. Throughout are real-life case histories of women of different ages and backgrounds who have married older men.
