I find it weird and extremely telling that Mark has a younger wife but no younger friends.
I noticed when Mina said “everyone here is old” I was watching with my mom and she said “of course, why wouldn’t they be!”.
BUT, Mark regards himself as young-at-heart enough to have a wife 20 years younger than himself. So surely he would have things in common with the local 30 yr olds as friends too?
It just confirmed that Mina is a trophy and not a human being to him. He does not see a wife as somebody he needs to “get along with”, or have things in common with - criteria he clearly values in friends.
