Age And Marriage by covenantchild33(m): 4:37pm On Sep 28, 2014 |
A male friend of mine shared his experience with me of meeting a lady he was ready to marry as a wife only if the lady just agrees and say "YES"! But the problem is that the lady woundnt agree and her excuse was that she's older than the guy. Age wise,though she said she loved the guy but cux of the age difference, she can't go on with him! So guys do you see it as ideal settling with a lady older than you are? An for the ladies,can you marry a guy that's younger than you,age wise? Your contributions may just help someone out of that dillema u know ! Ur views pls |

@ Poster,u failed to indicate the age range difference btwn them.Anyways,a guy could marry a lady older than he is, as long as they both truly love themselves,but it becomes an issue of concern when the age difference is glaringly obvious,cos it may be discouraging respect from the lady sometimes,but if the age gap is'nt that noticeable & they are really down with each other,just go ahead & tie the knot. |

Age is just an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, then it doesn't matter. |

Age is a BIG issue. It is a number, agreed. But it is the same number that will rear it's ugly head when disagreement springs up. In Naija, a husband must provide most of the leadership in the home. Also, we ascribe respect or at least some measure of deference to our elders. In this light, you will agree that there is a conflict. Should the man defer to his wife because he is younger or should she submit in all things and respect him even though she is older? I suspect that even if she decides to marry the young man, she might seek to hide the age factor from her folks. I also believe that the husband certainly would not want to suffer innuendoes (stemming from the age difference) from his wife's friends. An egoistic African man or woman should avoid such unions. 1 Like |

U know our ego, and dis will always cause problem in d house....!!!! |
