But OP hasn't said anything at all about the characters, except that the (adult) woman in the relationship is very attractive. OP is so focused on the fact that there's an age gap, and how "creepy" that allegedly is, that we really have no idea whether or not it's a sexual fantasy, or a romantic fantasy, or just a story. OP's bias in this case prevents us from ever knowing, really.

Well OP did mention this:

"who just so happened to have curves in all the right places, a bunch of guys hitting on her all the time (but she turns them down, naturally), and she's super sweet and kind and blah blah blah. "

Which, I've gotta say, sounds like a relationship sue if ever I've heard one.

If the author went out of his way to write a realistic 22 year old woman then I don't think it would come across as creepy.

But it's such a blatant fantasy that it does.

The age gap isn't the only issue here.

So the woman is attractive and guys hit on her. Like, okay, a bit stereotypical but not exactly shocking stuff here. And she's... nice. Well. Okay.

OP's post was entirely focused on the age gap, how appalling it wast that an adult 22-year-old and adult 50-year-old would be married. If OP wants to critique, she should've suggested then maybe breathing a bit more originality into the 22-year-old, and... I don't know, made her less hot?
