If you are over 40...
Russian women often get married to older Western men. But it does not mean they prefer old husbands. She just want feel more secure and be sure in a new stable life marrying a foreign man. That's why she is looking for a husband older than herself. What can you expect of a marriage where age difference is 20-30 years?
I don't think those marriages are as stable as ones with age difference of 5-15 years. Virtually all women will not have a problem with age difference up to 10 years, and many find acceptable age difference up to 15 years, a few will be OK with age difference up to 20 years. But anything beyond this will put you on a very thin ice, and you are likely to encounter problems in your search. Young girls tend to be less worried about difference in age than older women: a girl of 20 years old is normally interested in men up to 45, whilst a woman of 40 years old will usually limit her search to men under 55.
Thus, if you are 48, a girl of 27 years old may consider you a suitable candidate and a girl of 35 may decide you are too old for her. But if you marry a girl 30 years younger than you, keep in mind that you have different interests. She will want to go to a party, discos, and so on. Hardly you will be able to go out as often as she wants. This marriage has a potential danger. But if you are sure in your mutual love take a chance. Many marriages between older men and young women are happy and stable.
