“Couples are made in heaven”, that’s absolutely true but unusual age difference among some of these heavenly couples poses several problems. Age difference in husbands and wives can be related to following factors: 1. Maturity issues: This issue comes into picture if husband is younger than wife and there is 2 years or more of difference between the ages of two. This is becoming prevalent nowadays mostly in love marriages, because love is blind and doesn’t follow age bars. But sometimes problem arises when it comes to maturity issues. It’s a known fact that females get matured earlier than males of same age group. So if husband is younger, he might not be matured enough at the time of marriage and girl might have to face problems in adjustments to the new culture. 2. Opinion gaps: If there is a large difference of more than 7-8 years, usually husband would be elder, opinion gaps might creep in. Usually husband and wives from same age group (either of equal age or a difference of 1-3 years) share common opinions and thoughts which are very necessary for development of an understanding. Lack of such understanding prevails if age gap is too much. 3. Sexual life: Sexual life is affected at a later stage if husband is very much older than wife. Sexual life will get disturbed due to sexual inactivity of husband at an age when his wife is still sexually active. 4. Kids: If there is a large age gap with an elder husband, early planning for kids is warranted due to age of husband. If your husband is 38 when you are 25 years old, and you conceive, the kid would be around 20 years old when your husband is 58 years of age. Accordingly, second child should also be planned sooner or should not be planned at all. 5. Ageing and death of the partner: A very older husband is ought to age and die many years early than his beloved life. 6. Looks: This issue comes to scene when husband and wife are of same age or husband is younger than wife. Generally females tend to compromise their looks early than the same age males. Wives with same age as of their husbands start looking older earlier than their better halves. 6 Likes 3 Shares |

Love is love, regardless of age. However, there is often an age gap that is most ideal, simply because it provides the couple with more shared interests. Can you imagine growing up in the age of technology and marrying someone who doesn’t know how to use smartphones completely? Perhaps that is a bit exaggerated, but it shows my point. People in the same generation often have more in common with each other, and are therefore more compatible. They like the same music, the same movies, and had similar experiences growing up. For a more exact answer, look at a study done . It found that couples with a one-year age difference have a mere 3 percent chance of getting divorced. That increases to 18 percent when the age gap is five years. A 10-year difference is 39 percent, and a 20-year age gap has a 95 percent chance of ending in divorce. In this sense, the ideal age gap is one year, something much smaller than one might think. This was done not by similarly as stated in my pervious statement, but rather on divorce rates amongst different people. This shows that the smaller the gap, the greater the chance of survival for the couple. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

ubunja:Surely it is her choice. If you have reservations, state it. However if that man makes her happy at that point in her life, who are you to deprive her. It's not as if marriages between people with 5 years age gap are guaranteed to succeed and bring happiness. |
