Men and women shouldn't try to understand eachother. Just love eachother. If we spend all our time trying to figure out our spouses we will always be misserable. Just enjoy life, we can never be figured out and neither can men.

I respect someone who dared a marriage for 25 years!!! (No, jus kiddin) I don't know if you have ever read this book called "Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus". That explains a lot about how and why we think what we think. I don't think your wife being young has anything to do with understanding part. Its all about the souls soliciting in complete Harmony.
It is never too late to start all over again. Wish you all the best!!!

My question is how hard did she try? If you are having troubles and she is using this as an excuse then she should have said something before 25 years went by. Being younger has nothing to do with paying attention to your spouse and understanding them. It takes love, effort, listening, and a desire to want the best for them -- it has nothing to do with one's age.
I am sorry the person you have spent 25 years with has said this to you, I am sure it probably hurt you to the core, huh? Talk to her and let her ask the questions and guide the conversation. Tell her that if she could not understand you, now is the time to ask about what she does not understand so you can explain it to her. I pray she listens and tries to understand. God be with you both!

Then ask her details about it. Ask her what in you does she not understand. Tell her that you have to talk about it openly so that if ever there's something that you can do, you will be willing to do it if it is for the best of your marriage.
Many families have been broken because of lack of open communication between the husbands and their wives. If only they talked without any reservations, some of their marriages could have been saved.
Don't let that happen to your marriage. Talk to her at the most appropriate time and that is when she is willing to listen. Good luck.

Hey dude being married for 25 yrs and this question coming up on the forum is really confusing me. First of all whats the relevance of the 10 yrs age difference??? . You should be able to understand your wife and act accordingly .... unless this is about something else!!!!!!!!!!!

It doesn't matter about the age difference. Us women will never understand the inside of the male mind. I am 10 years younger then my husband as well. I don't care how old he was I will never understand some of the things he thinks.

Well did you ask her why?
Have you done something to make it that way? You don't really give much information as to why and what happened. But I can tell you sometimes we all can reach a point in our lives where things change and we change.Her being younger than you really shouldn't have anything to do with her not being able to understand you.....It is a sad situation you are in ...my heart goes out to you. I wish you luck, love and light in your life!!

Communication is key to any successful relationship. Ask her what she is not understanding. Ask her what she needs that she is not getting.
If you can't do this on your own, there's no shame in going to a counselor to assist you two in working this out.

Remember: "The other driver is always wrong; but it takes two to make a bang".
I think you should also care to understand your life partner.
