AZ, what might have changed that the girls dating 15 years ago did not have an age gap problem, but todays girls do?
IMHO 15 years ago the guys werent as fussy as they are now, with a list of specs a mile long. So when a guy started dating 15 years ago at 23, he most often married within the first year. These days many guys still find Mrs Right within the first year of dating, BUT MANY MORE THESE DAYS DONT, leaving leftovers of many hundreds of older girls, because of the younger girls willing to go out with guys many years their senior (20 y.o. girls dating 27, 28, etc y.o. guys). I think there are a lot more cradle-robbing guys these days, than 15 years ago.
