Is It Proper To Date/marry One's Age Mate? by Getikebusy(m): 7:09pm On Mar 13, 2016
I don't know if its an appropriate question to ask. But is it proper to date or more so marry one's age mate? There's this lady that's tripping me a lot. We seem to have this chemistry... She understands me and I do likewise. Very mature too. Though is still an undergraduate but I don't care. I really do like her. The only problem is that we are age mates embarassed advices needed from experience or otherwise please...

According to Nigerian standard of marriage, its a NO NO. A man is supposed to marry a girl half his age so dat she can still maintain her youthful look after childbearing.


OP biko look for a girl half ur age cos threads like [/b]*My wife spent our child's school fees on eyelashes and brazilian hair*[b] is what makes Nairaland interesting grin

Age really does not matter at a certain age gap which is about 30 and above. Let me explain.

If a lady is say 21years and she dates a 21 year old guy i guess in most cases she just might be wasting her time because at that level there is a case of immaturity from both ends and asides from this,the guy may just not be ready to settle down at 28 and the lady may certainly not have much time.

But if both of you are of matured ages,it becomes a different ball game because you are both matured to understand what you feel so the conclusion is that age does not matter only if both of you are advanced in age to know what you are doing but it is very unrealistic at younger age.

My take.

There is a little possibility that it would lead to anything serious, all things being equal. As a Nigerian guy, benefiting favourably or unfavorably from this Nigerian economy, you tend to have a lower chance of getting that relationship to the alter cos girls wouldn't want to date for long and wait till you make it. But hey, if you have made it already or you feel both of you can handle whatever life throws at you at this stage then go for it. Good luck.
