They tend to act 10 or 20 YEARS IN THE DEFICIENCY column emotionally and spirtually-speaking. To put it directly. . . THEY ACT LIKE IJJJIOTS! kiss

As I get older. . . THE GAP WIDENS. . . .
Sooooooooooooooooo I would have to say NO!
It would not work for me. I NEED A 10 YEAR GAP!!!! So, I CAN HAVE SOME TIME AND PATIENCE WITH HIS AZZZZZZZZZZZE THAT REFUSES TO GROW UP!!!kiss

I need a man. . . not a boy! kiss

SHE WILL OUTGROW YOU IN ABOUT 5 YEARS. . . .AND LOOK LIKE YOUR MOTHER IF SHE AGES LIKE MOST NIGERIAN OR NAIRALAND WOMEN!!!! grin

Age does not usually correlate with maturity. . . BUT IN MY DEALINGS WITH NIGERIAN MAN. . . .

THE BIGGER THE SHOE SIZE. . . THE SMALLER THE BRAIN! kiss

OP. . . goodluck! kiss


Highly unlikely!! Going through your post, I honestly doubt you are as intellectually developed or cognitive as you think you are.

Did you read your post? It's a freaking eye sore, the muddling up of small & capital letters, the excessive & unnecessary use of ellipsis... I suggest you work on your writing skills first, before trying to pass yourself off as an intellectual. Learn how to express yourself properly & in a fashion that depicts your "supposed" maturity. you can't claim to be knowledgeable yet write like a buffoon.

You are either in a state of delusion, or live around idio*ts, after all in a country of blind men, one eyed man is king.

but I want to ask a question here, what would You do if Ur genotype is AS and U proposed to a lady only to find out few months later that she is also AS and she was one of those ladies who really gave U a tough time before agreeing to even date U?
Ur opinions needed pls

















So Op, don't also make d mistake of not finding out her genotype earlier before
Re: Getting Married To Your Age mate by tomzman: 11:58pm On Dec 29, 2013
Op, I think the ultimate decision lies with you. Better don't mind all those shouting 'if you love her' You have to realise that these days, love is not enough. Like someone said earlier, love is just the starting point. Well, I would advise you to have a one on one chat with people who have gone through that path and let them share their experiences with you. Also, don't be in a hurry to get married, take your time to study her well. The ball is in your court. Good luck.

DON'T DO IT!!!

Love just dey shack you now...but 2 years after marriage your eyes go open.

Nobody goes into marriage hoping for the worst, but I can guarantee you that you are

just fulfilling your childhood fantasy.

When it wears off and you are stuck with this mamasita, na then your wahala go start.

You think you know her because you just spent few days with her? Good luck.

There are reasons why she is still single in the mid-30s.

Don't carry your legs enter wahala o! At her age, most ladies pretend to be nice because they
have limited options. But as soon as she ropes you in, you are screwed.

Take a cue from Princess the comedian. Don't be the hero who tries to wipe out an old cargo's shame.

Forewarned is fore-armed. Stop thinking with the little head

Hello bro, getting marry to your age mate s not a bad idea. The only thing you have to check is her character, attitude, approach to people and respect for others (put your own secondary). If she passed in that aspect. You are good to go. Don't mind people that you should go for younger girls. A lot of young girls lack respects, manners and unruly. More of the divorce that happen is due to lack of respect in the home. If you are 30yrs and you ask a girl of 18yrs out, from that day dnt expect bro... again. You name niii direct. I simple advice is sit down and look inward can these marriage work between us. If you can ask yourself sincerely. U wil kno. Good luck.

@op, you do not love this lady, please let her go. Ask yourself, tomorrow if she

A) becomes blind
B) loses both legs
C) loses both arms
D) gets burns over 50% of her body

etc, would you still marry her? This is just a tip of the iceberg, as I know most naija guys are into physical appearances, hence those questions.

I am a realist.

OP: The ladies in the house are cheering you on. Go ahead and do it. You think marriage is a joke.

A trial will convince you. Of all the millions of succulent babes in Nigeria, na dead wood you wan go carry.

On reading some of the ladies' posts here, i. reminds me of a popular Igbo adage, "nwoke nwanyi na afuru oja na eji azu ukwu amaba be ndi mmuo"(a man who dances to the melodious tunes of women's flute always ends up with the dead). That is to say, thread carefully on women's flattery.

Cave ne sedes. Caveat emptor!

Re: Getting Married To Your Age mate by Nobody: 1:48am On Dec 30, 2013
We've seen healthy ladies in their 20's who have no reason to be barren but they are. Can scientists explain such irony?
We've also seen cases of women in their 40's give birth which gives evidence that man's knowledge is limited. God gives children to whom and when He pleases and not man that cannot create it. God is Great!
claremont: @OP: Scientific research (widely published online) has proven beyond reasonable doubt that there is a dramatic decline in female fertility after she has attained the age of 27 and onwards. A woman is at her most fertile period between the age of 19 and 26; her chances of conceiving drops to 50% when she reaches 27 years of age, and drops even further for every year she adds on. In addition, the chances of infertility increases for a female from the age of 27.

The bottom line is that males should strive to marry younger females (i.e. females below 27 years of age) in order to maximize their chances of having children. Avoid old cargoes!

P.S: Data is derived from http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-112136/The-female-fertility-clock-starts-ticking-27.html

To be truthful, it's not really age that deeetermines maturity, it is our experiiences in life that makes us mature. That said, I have seen men who have fr younger wives call them useless man. Is that respect? Study how she treats relatives, if she treats them well, that is a good sign. Marry heer if shee has a good character and respeect. Age is the day we came to this wworld, nothing more.(

I finished before her cos she did Medicine. We never met for once in school. I studied Engineering. Perhaps we met unnoticed in 100level. Today, despite †ђξ fact that I tell her its not necessary, she goes on 2kneels 2greet me in †ђξ morning. That anyway makes me find ways of showing her I adore her. I really do. And she knows it.

**Yawns** we hav bin tru diss ova and ova. Age does not guarantee respect. And no, it does not mean that she will age faster. Maturedness of a woman is wat guarantees respect. And no, maturedness is not a function of age. Take a look at Lady Bianca. Every sane man wud wish to wife her. But, im sure she's above 45. A lady's lifestyle is pertinent in dis area. Trust me, a 19 year old with a bad lifestyle will luk older in no time.

I have dated babes a couple of years older than me in the West and it was no biggie.


@OP,
You're already worried that she might not quite send your heart racing after dropping a few kids. So I doubt if you are "for better for worse" kinda person. Maybe not yet.

A woman 10 years younger can suffer a disabling accident 3 years into the marriage (God forbid). What would you do in that case?
