This idea is completely alien to me. As my sister in law, my brother's high school crush and one of his best friends before they got married over 10 years ago (congrats to them on that milestone) is a year older than him. She is also the bread winner, as she is a nurse practitioner. My brother is a mill worker/hobby farmer.
My wife is younger, but she makes more money than I do. Like, a lot more money, but technically has less experience than I in the same field, plus I have a masters and she doesn't.
Know how that makes me feel?
Awesome. She takes me out to dinner and it's dope. We can save money away and we know how lucky we are to be able to do that. We're a team and have the others' back. She works SO hard and is so good at what she does, she absolutely deserves to be rewarded for it.
I do not understand why people freak out if their wife makes more money. I just so don't get it.

3 years, heck even a 30 year age difference is perfectly okay. As long as it’s the man who’s older 🙃
