@OP, ideally age shouldn't even be a factor let alone a barrier but realistically, you'd do well to be careful in that regard. It would rare to find in Nigeria, a young lady who'd marry a younger man even by as little as a year. I've heard many manny young women say they will not marry a younger man because they would 'disrespecct' him, can you beat that? Personally, I wouldn't mind marrying an older woman(in fact I prefer older women)but I'd rather not be in a situation where one ignorant myopic female will be making my life not because I did anything wrong but because she's older than me. Hia.

I swear. Nigerian mentality is the reason we're not great. Age is a number, be you old or young, what matters is your mindset. What rubbish abt "oh he's younger I'll disrespect him" or "she's older, she'll ride over me"?? Na children dey think like that. Go talk to mature people, life is short and unhappy and you want to complicate matters by saying No to the one who will be your lifemate and support you forever because of age? Clap for yourself. I'm taking lessons in something and my teacher(s) is younger than me, the way he snaps at me sometimes! One small girl asked "he shouldn't talk like that to you" and I replied "this is his kingdom, and he is king. When he steps into my kingdom, I am Queen." I'm learning and progressing and haven't lost one bit of my dignity and respect. Pride is expensive.

Thank God for the one you have and stop making this costly assumption that you'll grow old together...
The Thread was particular abf the lady being older.

The difference between you and I....I don't make assumptions and I speak into the universe what I want. I want to grow old with my husband. End of discussion.

Why are you on my nuts about MY MOTHERFUGGIN CHOICE?

As for me, I can't date or get married to a dude I'm older than. Most women who get married to younger men aren't submissive to their husbands and they usually end up getting divorced. The guy would always feel insecure and when they have a minor scuffle, the guy makes a statement like "Is it because u're older than me?". Although, such relationships work for some people. But very few.

And how many of such marriages have you seen? You say so because you cannot be with a younger guy for your reason. Don't try to justify it by saying it always happen
