Is It Bad For A Wife To Be Older Than Her Husband With Less Than A Year? by thetelz(m): 6:38pm On May 14, 2011
Hello Nairalanders,i was just wondering if it was really bad for a wife to be older than her husband with less than a year or its just african mentality? If you were to be a father or a mother,would you let your son marry a girl thats less than a year older than him? And if you're a guy about to get married,can you marry a lady who is a year older than you? Well i think its ok as long as there is love between both of you.

I find it kinda irritating

when the husband is like 50, he would need the help of the wife then

you cant be using walkin stick and your wife using walkin stick

[size=15pt]who would hold who~[/size]

Thats why its advisable to always go for a lady who's younger say 3-even 10yrs apart

but its the african mentality anyway

cos its kinda cool knowing at 60 your wife is just 45

Not 60 / 60

There's nothing wrong in that,as long as there is love and understanding between them.

its not an African mentality,
white people do it too,love is all that matters,
its just a year or two three years difference,you sound like its a decade.
and besides, a healthy 60 year old woman is stronger than a healthy 60 year old man.
Re: Is It Bad For A Wife To Be Older Than Her Husband With Less Than A Year? by 190: 6:53pm On May 14, 2011
^But women age quicker than male's

so how would a 60yr old woman be stronger 

reason why i said its african is cos till the 21st century it was more praticed and pronounced in africa

men getting women twice their age to avoid future problems angry

Lol 190,who'll hold who at 60. But thats a good point though,thats why they'd marry at an early age and they'll have fully grown up children though. I mean african mentality like you take a girl thats older than you to your father and he's like 'over my dead body,thats an abomination' . Like i said,its just less than a year's difference. I'm not in that position o.lol just thinking about it and decided to throw the question.

1,2 yrs is no bid deal as long as she look k
but who says the woman is younger is a guarantee that she will live longer to takecare of the man at old age
So u marrying a younger girl so she will be your nanny at your old age, grow up!

Not African mentality, but global mentality. As for me? I don't care. Do whatever makes you happy and helps you sleep at night. As long as it's between you and whomever. If it doesn't influence me or anyone besides yourselves and your close people, then carry go smiley

@ogugua88 i specifically put african mentality cos in other western countries e.g america,uk,germany its a normal thing. Nobody cares. I did a search on this and partially everyone in those countries said there was nothing wrong with it so i wanted to know what we africans feel about it.
