lol. i have a nephew who is way older than me. and it's so awkward everytime we see each other and he gives me a kiss. apparently, his father married earlier than my mother. it's kinda cool when we're together.

I do not think it is that rare. My husband's Dad remarried, from the first marriage there are 4 kids and from the second marriage 2. The kids range in age from 27 to 5. My son is 9. The girl I work with is in a similar situation. She is the youngest of 8 and has a sister that is 23 years older than she is. She has quite a few nieces and nephews that are older or the same age.

I am an auntie of two four nieces and nine nephews and all of them are very much younger than me. The older nephew is forty and the youngest is eighteen. I have five uncles and I am younger than them. A friend of mine is older than her uncle. Her mother is the eldest daughter among the ten siblings. Her uncle was born when she was fourteen months old.

Im a woman and I am not older than any of my nieces but I have seen it happen plenty of times when siblings are far far apart in age. It isn't as uncommon as you may think. I expect to see it in my own family within the next 10 years. It is very possible that one of my kids could have a kid of their own and I could have another baby after them.

I have uncles and aunties who are older than me. I also have kids now, 5 yrs old and a 5 month old baby but I have cousins who are only 4 years and some are even younger. I even have a sister who is only 7 years old, making her only 2 years older that her neice. It's no longer rare because there are lots of kids getting pregnant at an earlier age.
