In the nigerian context..our culture wud frown at it..family and freinds wud crucify you.so the question is can u handle all that negative publicity ..do u tynk ur love is strong enuf..dnt judge by the ceex oo.u are all loving up now are u sure wen issues arise and sure as the sun shines they will.. u won't go calling him a small boy..as for me the drama is too much..but if ur time is tiking fast..and u feel u can handle it ..why not ..but if u were my sister ..I wud skin u first before I let u marry a guy youngr than u with five years save offcourse I dint know..21dfea02..

Age is noting but a number! Go for it!

personally, I prefer mature ladies than the small inexperience girls around..

I advice you to observe the amount of love the guy have for you. Cos if he don‘t have a real love for you, after marriage he might probably as a young guy change his mind. Let your love be scale well.

NO! its like me marrying my younger brother's age mate. no way!

He turned out to be fake. . .he got frustrated and showed me what he's truly made of. A lot of times, their hanging around you is for one silly reason or the other. Either because they know you are capable of taking care of yourself so you won't have to bother them for anything or because they just want to know what it feels like to get you laid.

^^^^Glad you found out, you can now move on

Hardunnii: ^^^^Glad you found out, you can now move on

jay bee: So u a cougar

lol. Jaybee, u no serious o. Na tiger u go see. Wen she no be Kim Kardashian.lol

how u dey?

tuhott:

I feel you. . . i use to feel this way till i met this one, everything about him is sweet. Just don't want a situation where the age difference thing will start showing after having a kid or two but presently, he looks a bit older even duo he's younger.

My dear, u better think well b4 u go for it.

Personally, I do not see anything wrong with it. This is naija and not US. And like u said up dere, u hardly respect guys but this one is different. There could be sum'n u like about him, but think well cos u may regret in the future cos there will be a lot of challenges. And please be sure he isn't deceiving u.

@OP If you want to marry him out of love you better think twice, marriage is not all about love but an important ingredient. Apart from the arrogant statement from afrobaby on seizing up men, i think she made an important point. The decision is solely yours to make, if ever you choose to go on that path, please remember he is a man and should be treated as such, you must respect his wishes and never in any time refer to the age gap. I can tell you this from experience. He would adore, respect and love you. But remember this is a sensitive situation and you must guard your tongue because the moment you refer to the age gap even at a slightest argument, he would resent you even if he says it is ok, and your marriage would go down the drain. Mutual respect for each other is very key in your situation because in a marriage there would be times both of you would be out of love. Wish you the best

oh sorry about this. I did not see it before posting but I am concerned about he got frustrated (that is a strong choice of word). I believe each and every one of us are in a relationship because of certain things we see in our partner other than sex and being attractive to the person. It is good you can take care of yourself, this generation of men like that and they will come after you, so it is up to you to keep the one you feel safe with. Everybody has their bad sides and it will show up one way or the other.

I just hope his frustration was not you referring to the age gap or pressing him for marriage cos definitely he would be frustrated.

The frustration was about sex..

afrobaby: To be candid, I can't o, thank God am married, so it can't happen to me again. I am this kind of person that respect female more than male, as in, meeting a guy for the first time, except if the person is really really an elderly person that I will respect the person, if not, I will try to size the guy up, and think of whether to respect him or not, but if it's a lady, gbam, I can respect u from the start self even when u appear younger, it's just me, so someone like me can't date/marry a younger person o, n ba, I believe it's a personality thing sha

na talk bi dis?

tuhott: Being in love is supposed to be one of the best feelings in the world. . . ladies please help out here. Can you marry a guy who is five years younger than you are, very intelligent, he behaves a lot more mature than his age, smart, handsome, and head over heels in love with you. This is my situation and i'm confuse.

Ages are just numbers,Repecting you doesn't mean calling you aunty but showing you love ...Love is blind..

jay bee: So u a cougar

No she aint. 5 years isnt a cougar. AT least 10 years is needed for that.
