I totally disagree with you viee on this. Age doesn't really come into this. All that matters is mutual understanding and proper firing of one another. I gone out with a lady who was over 6 years older than me while I was doing my Youth Corp, and believe me, it's one of the best and refreshing relationships have ever been into.

Moreover. Young blood go mix with old and produce lovely warm "koko" action.

Y not? Hav had 2 relatnships wit younger guys.it depends on d guy's maturity nd exposure nd d lady's maturity as wel.fortunately i dnt luk my age so mostly i attract younger guys. I tel u tis refreshing

well as a guy, I have never really had a relationship with a younger lady.the once I tried it was tough, But most of my female friends are older than me infact all.one thing is I dont hide my age, so anyone not interested need not hide.

I did and i see no difference, my first husband was older than me and my second (and Last) is younger, it just depends on the individuals and their level of maturity. I find that we have alot in common and that is the key.

no,i would try to make himm grow up too fast and believe me its too much stress.except by divine intervention.
i have to add that i have seen some younger guys who are more matured than guys in their 30s.actually mmmmmm.not sure.

My wife is 14 months older than I am and we are having a wonderful marriage.

age is noting but numbers. i dont mind dating or even marrying a younger guy infact the guy am dating presently is younger than i am and to be sincere he looks much older than me facially and even intellectually he is much more matured so i dont see anyting wrong with dating or marrying a younger guy if u truly love him come to think of it i dont even think of it at all

see if u love someone the respect you would have for the person will flow whether he is older or younger some ladies disrepect guys that are older than them so dont think that ladies only respect guys that are older you can actually respect guys older or younger than you if you truly love them and if they mean so much to u

Na I can't marry a guy younger than me or my age mate he has to be older( like 6yrs)

Nike thats a nice one.I'ld like to have a chat with you,if you don't mind.

I've always maintained that I could never date/marry a man younger than me. I prefer an older man - ideally 5 - 10 years older - because women mature faster than men. This is an ideal situation BUT there are exceptions to every rule. So to avoid missing out on my blessing, I have reached a compromise ahead of time, that if I met a younger man, I would consider it if:

  - he's just a few months  younger [or at most a year]

  - I only found out his age after I've gotten to know/like him

  - it's not obvious in terms of physical appearance, that he is younger.
    Don't want to be looking like no man's mama 
    (Well, shouldn't be a problem because people always think I'm 10 years
    younger than my actual age -  blessed or what?   )

  - most importantly - if it doesn't bother him one bit that I'm older and
    he is as mature [or even better, more mature] spiritually,
    emotionally, mentally, financially --- etc

i dont think that there is a problem with that, being older doesnt mean more mature in many cases, a lot of men r looking for older women these days cause they r more comfortable with them selves and more active in certain ways cause a female peak is at her thirties, while females r now looking for younger men cause they r more fun and sometimes more understanding than the older ones, ive dated a man of a couple of years older and another of a couple of years younger and i didnt feel a difference in maturity it all depends on the guy not the age and whther u accept it in the back of ur mind or not

2 year younger yes more than that would be considered but i doubt if even he wont have a problem with that!

All you girls just dey talk. I think when it comes to all these things, its almost always out of your hands.
You dont meet a guy and start asking, "How old are you?" and before you know whats happening, you've fallen flat. FLAT. and it will be too late for you to turn back.

what's wrong with the ladies? they all like to front.
when they see a younger man who's rich the age thing wuld be forgotten.
Age is just a freaking number that's all it is.

hi ladies

i'm single, handsome, rich and i know how to treat (and love) a lady.

okay maybe i'm not so handsome but giv a brother a break, cant have it all now can i

(all that talk about younger guy or not doesn't count now does it?)

Its about maturity and not the age.


So, yes I will but only about 2yrs younger though.

i have always considered age nothing but a number

but i realise that society seems to put a lot of weight to it

even jobs discriminate age wise

with all the above
i would date/marry a younger man if
1) he oozed confidence in himself and what he can become -now i dont mean arrogance but some self-esteem
2) if he could laugh abt any age difference( u know sumfin we could joke abt even in front of others) i dont need someone who's sensitive abt it. I know my worth and it doesnt come with an age tag

Been seeking advice on this same topic. Have a friend who is two years younger than I am but insists on dating and possibly marriage (ie, if I ever agree). Never thot of marrying a younger guy but have dated one before and there was really no stress cos he was very matured and stuff, but marriage, ouch!

Tanx for all the gists i got grom u nairalanders, changed my views to be that i'll marry a younger guy if:

We love each other
REspect each other and even forget that there's an age issue
I don't look older than him(dat's very important)

i did. i'm in heaven.

Ya I would, wats wrong with that?If he treats me good and loves me unconditionally, i would. Heck I am 26 and people think I am 18 years old. Damn!! If he even acts mature, heck thats even better for me, if he doesnt, i'll drop him like America bombed Iraq.

Maturity, respect, care, love and understanding are some of those characters that are NB in any relationship, heck u will find a grown ass man and yet he acts like a teenager, puhleeze.

FOR ME WOULD NOT LIKE TO MARRY A GUY WHO IS YOUNGER THAN ME.MAY BE IT PSYCHOLOGICAL, MAMBA CAN JUST EXPLAIN.I WILL TO MARRY A GUY 7-10 YEARS OLDER THAN ME.IT FUNNY ALTHOUGH.BUT THAT MY STAND.

MAMBA YOU ARE SERIOUS ABOUT THAT COMMENT YOU MADE

SOLO2.I WOULD NT BELIEVE YOU BECAUSE AS A PERSON IF I LOVE YOU I WILL LET YOU KNOW.I WILL NOT DIE IN SILENCE.I WILL HAVE SLEEPLESS NIGHT THINKING ABOUT IT WHILE THAT GUY WILL BE SLEEPING WELL. I WILL TELL HIM SO THAT I CAN SLEEP WILL AND FOCUS WELL.SO YOUR COMMENT IS NOT TRUE.

In the midst of all you guys have said.

what would you all think of some one at the age of 21 as at 2008 that is engaged to be married with a guy aged 33?

on my own, No cos i want to feel and know my man is my senior and on top of everyyyy, but to be sincere age has nothing to do with the Koko which is CHARACTER. once the guy is matured and on top of his game, he is good to goooooooooo

no

Yes.

I can't do it How can I marry a man that I'm older than that is folked-up, it is not adviceable pls. I will a man that can do it more better not all this small boys. I'm a small girl going out with a small boy don't u know that is big cheat. See I dey vex o

LoL, This is funny, the fact that most people here think Maturity comes with age is amazing. I have seen loads of men who are older than me yet it seems they skipped maturity.

Would I marry a younger man? Yes, I would.

There is nothing wrong with it,but as for me i dont i can

kini big deal? but i can't, i swear

tytylayor abeg you dey feel me

I'm 9 yrs older than my man. We are in love an planning to marry. It did take him a while to overcome the age issues though. It can work if you are comfortable with each other
