I enjoyed your essay very much. It's a pairing I have found quite likely since I read the last book, and I found your analyze very good. There is another factor that binds them together as well. Tonks father is a Muggle and Rowling's has said in interviews that one of Lupin's parents are a Muggle as well. that would certainly give them something else in common, as they have most likely been brought up in contact with both words. And as you pointed out, they have a difference that uis unusual even it the wisarding world. it must have been even more awkvard being with Muggles then.
As for age difference. Well, I'm in a long-term realtionship with a man 15 year older than me. Sometimes the problem that arise are not what you would have been a younger man, but on the other hand, some problems you don't get at all. I think it's more a matter of personality, rather than age.
