The OW is younger than him, but not at all good looking. I didn't marry him until I was 40. Age was an issue for me when I met him, I thought he was too young, but he wanted someone who was not silly and hysterical and did not play games. The age issue has not come up since. Most of his EA has to do with his breakdown and how she was "there for him" and "understood him" since she has mental health issues of her own. I do not suffer from depression and have a hard time understanding the black hole it creates in a life, even after seeing it. His EA started with email when she was living in another part of the country.
