He's talking about his ideal age difference for a woman he wants to be with, but if he was so dedicated to this age thing, then why is he with you in the first place? – That rang true, or made me feel better. Either way thank you for your response. And it's even better coming from a man.
You said it was a strong wish of his, but how important is it on a scale of 1 - 10? If it was a 10, I doubt he would even be attempting to comfort you, in fact I doubt he would even be dating older than 21.
What does he like about the idea of a younger wife? If he wants someone that could be a caregiver as he ages perhaps you could include the cost of a live in caregiver into your retirement plans. If he has the desire to be with someone who is youthful and attractive, you may fit the bill if you keep fit and age gracefully.
Finally keep this in mind . . .
Love trumps expectations.
If you asked me what my ideal was before I married I would've said a tall, introspective, quiet brunette or redhead.
I am married to and very happy with a short, lives in the now, talkative blond.

That was solid response. Thanks. I can definitely see myself settling down with this man but... I guess we've all heard of the red Porsche and infamous male mid-life crisis. I don't want to look back at my twenties, when we first started dating and realise that the man gave me many signs but I had rose-tinted glasses on. Can you understand where I'm coming from or do I sound paranoid : )
Yes I can understand where you are coming from and yes you sound a little paranoid ;o) That is OK though, I believe in a healthy dose of caution in most situations myself.
Ask him the question I asked you, if this is 5 or less on a scale of importance for him I think he can leave it behind without regrets.
Find out about the caregiver thing. That is something that I would consider a big plus for a younger wife and that has several work arounds. If it is all about looks . . . then he may be a bit on the shallow side, warning rough waters ahead.
I think your best bet is to follow you heart. Let yourself love and let fate do the rest. There is no point in stressing over insignificant facts and wasting any time living. Enjoy your time with your guy. If he is the one, then he will be the one. If he ends up leaving, then he doesn't deserve you anyways.
