Actually, in 20 years she will be ~14 years past her "sexual peak" and if she has kids, she may or may not be horny. So-called "sexual peak" in humans occurs @ about 18 in males and 30 in females as measured by production of eggs/sperm and sex drive.
Old joke:
"How does it feel to be past your peak?"
"Not bad at all."
I don't know about you, but I enjoy it a lot more now than when I was 18. A LOT more. Especially if the woman is somewhere near her peak age, that did not even matter when I was 18.
Age difference in relationships presents all kinds of potential problems or at least challenges that have nothing to do with sex. Hell, most same-age couples don't have perfect sex lives from what I hear. The big one is disparity of interests and cultural experiences, (when you grew up and tastes formed), but it's not insurmountable. Plus, 42/24 is not that radical of difference, one of my best friend's Dad is 75 and married to a 28 y.o. And they have a freaking baby. His step mother is younger than his wife by one year and they both have new-borns. His old man has been with her for 5 years or something. Talk about a "Great White Hunter".
My own experience, plus the experience of countless others, is that most relationships don't last forever regardless of age/money/health/etc.. If she makes you happy and vice-versa, go for it.
