What is MayDecemberSecrets?

May December Secrets is the first website of its kind devoted to couples in relationships with age differences. This website is full of tips, tricks, and tools to help you create a successful relationship in any season! Since we are a May December couple (married in 1986) and counselors in private practice (since 1990), we have lots of experience navigating the age gap. We are here to create a reservoir of practical information built from our personal and professional experience. We know you will find the content helpful regardless of the ages of you and your partner.

fresh content written each week to help you hone and practice your ever growing toolkit.

Who are we?

We have been married to each other since 1986 and have a 15 year age difference. Ron has 4 children, thus bestowing Gayle with 4 bonus children and 13 grandchildren. We also have 2 dogbabies. We love to travel (Paris anyone?), write, hike, bike, click pics and evidently rhyme! Our goal is to leave the world in better shape than when we found it.

In addition to 20+ years in private practice as psychotherapists, we know firsthand the benefits and challenges of the May-December dynamic. Our marriage has lasted over two decades. Our blend of therapeutic expertise and direct experience make us uniquely qualified age gap relationship experts. We share personal and professional secrets with you in this blog. In addition to making this information available to everyone in the WWW, we have a private counseling practice and are writing the definitive book on age gap relationships.
