An "older partner" refers to a person in a romantic or committed relationship who is significantly older than their counterpart. This age difference can vary widely, but it often involves one partner being at least a decade older. Such relationships can bring unique dynamics, including differences in life experience, maturity, and perspectives on various issues. In many cases, an older partner may have established careers, financial stability, or different social circles compared to their younger counterpart. These relationships can challenge societal norms and stereotypes, as they often defy traditional expectations regarding age and compatibility. Examples of notable couples with age differences include George Clooney and Amal Clooney or Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart.
