I think 5 years is too much because women get visually older than men in the long-run, and u don't want to marry a woman that will look like granny in the next 10 years, Just my little advice. |

Love does not protect you from age, but age sometimes protect you from love. You've got to follow your hear and like someone said the other time no matter the advice being given to you on this forum from users you will still follow the decision your heart is gonna make. Its not really easy to come to conclusion if one is to look at the opposition one is gonna face at the homefront. But with love all obstacles will be conquered. I personally found myself being in the midst of older ladies, cos i reason beyond my age, and my physique is also an advantage.Whenever i tell the ladies my gae, they dont believe. And i know that i will be getting married a lady that will be older than i do.They understand much better than the younger ones, they dont really need your money compared to the younger ones also, all they need is your love and loyalty.And for you to be saying you are in love then you must be ready to give the whole of your being in service to them and you will definitely get the same if not more in return. Stay cool and also keep the fire of love burning. |

@Teslim, I see some flaws in your first comment. [b]I still can break up the whole thing. In my mind I call her baby mama! Though I think I love her too.[/b][ the above statement tells me you would like to get out but don't know how. I suggest you find a way to getout as soon as you can because if you truly loved her, you would have stated this explicitly. You can not live a life with a woman for over fifty years with this kind of feeling you have got now. the only thing that can keep you with a woman of such attributes in years to come is true love and natural likeness. I dont think this is your case. So get the crush-veil out of you eyes and see beyond your nose. You can not afford to joke or toy with a womans heart, tell her the truth now like a stitch in time and "save nine". She can still find somebody older, that will love her better now than when she drops a kid for you. (likewise you). But if you want to restate your comment ie. tell me how much you love her, then i have another advice for you My candid opinion!. |

Men! 5 years plenty oh. But then again what are we looking at here. Are u 25 and she's 30 or are yu 30 she 's 35 or ur 35 and she's 40? Lets see some exact range here And folks should stop saying that age aint mothin but a number cos it aint. |

Ol,boy, seriously, I no envy you right now. I mean, if you neva dey that situation before, you no go understand how dillemmic(check dat word!) it could get. I had the misfortune to date one who was just a couple of years older. Boy! UYou wan try as this girl carry hold me! I got really scared when she started telling me time was not on her side. What was I supposed to do. Young chappy, just about rounding off youth service (and by the way, she was serving, too). Anyways, I just think dating(and, potentially, marrying) an older girl, in present day Africa, carries a lot unneccessary pressures. Any young man could do without those. And that's being candid, friends. |

Re: Marrying A Woman 5 Years Older by Nobody: 10:41am On Jan 05, 2007 |
I cant believe some people are making such a big deal about 5 years he didnt say he had a sugar mummy, he said 5 years. I'm almost 30years and i still get questions like when are you starting university; cos i look at least 14 years younger than i really am. ITS NOT LIKE THE CHIC IN QUESTION HAS WRINKLES AND NEEDS A WALKING STICK @poster Bros I understand it can be awkward with siblings it terms of relating to them especially the cultural thing but the main reason you are with her siblings is simply because you are her MAN so don't let such things intimidate you else you are not ready to be just that, HER MAN. |

Know that love conquers all. I dont think there is anything wrong with that. |
Re: Marrying A Woman 5 Years Older by alexis(m): 11:28am On Jan 05, 2007 |
This age thing is really delicate in Nigeria. You need to ask yourself several questions i.e. 1. Am I ready to get married, is the babe ready as well. 2. Does she want kids soon because she feels that she is getting old and you are not quite ready? 3. Do you really truely love her? 4. Are you guys compatible? 5. Do your folks support the marriage? 6. Do you guys have the same religious preferences? Answering these questions honestly can give you a clear picture if you will be with her or not. You can also seek counsel from your church or your mosque. In my opinion, I see nothing wrong with it. Look at it this way - Will you date/marry Mariah Carrey or Hally berry? I definately would |

Re: Marrying A Woman 5 Years Older by dthyfubyd: 10:53am On Jan 10, 2007 |
guy if u love the chick go ahead. am took sure that when u guys started ur relationship u never knew her age and u woule have thought u are older than her, but later u got to know. what if she didn't want to tell u her real age. As long as she is not looking not bad at all. Infact there are chicks u are far older than but look older than you, what will u guys see to that. |
