I'm not American. However, my ex wife was 6 years older than me, and my now and forever wife is 5 years younger than me.

I don't know if that means anything, but, that 11 year age difference between them is real. They are literally from different generations in terms of their mentality, expectations, goals, etc.

Has been interesting.
