Marrying A Woman 5 Years Older
« on: December 11, 2006, 09:02 PM »

What about that! Everyone kept talking about their situations. What about mine!

I don't want to go into details.  You know Nigeria.  Someone who knowz me might know. She doesnt really look that old though. But when I think of it at times,  men.  That's how I feel!

I still can break up the whole thing.  In my mind I call her baby mama!  Though I think I love her too.

You'll see nothin wrong till u take her home.

Till you go to your in-law and u see her younger ones a even older than you. Till she calls one mama by her "Name". LIke hey BIMPE bawo ni. And you've been callin BIMPE auntie BIMPE and now, your BIMPE's friends hubby Tongue. Till she calls a her elder sister name too. And You don't know if u should do the same. (Though I really really hate the yoruba age respect thing. So thats one of the things that got me into trouble. I don't respect people like 8years above. I'd always believe someone 5years older we still age group. So i push mine as far as 8.)

What got me into this is because I always don't care about things like age. I've been dating older girls since 17yrs. I've even gone as far as someone 8years older. They wont limme alone. They all know i'm younger but don't want to believe the reality. They say I told like I'm 10years older. THat I do things a little too mature. I push the wheels that someone 10years older would'nt even push. BUt my face says it all. THIS DUDE is a kid. BUt they see the face wrongly again. They say it jus looks too clean and fresh. That I prolly be Kenneth "Babyface" Edmond in disguise.

In this particular case I was retiring from the old-girl-date game when we met. I was so pissed this one was older too. SHe denied it and gave me some younger birthday. Angry. Till some older friends saw her and was like. Yup you remember Seun they was class mates. WOW!!! Shocked

She's got challances men. I look too fuckin' like. Oh!!! Its a lie, he ain't married.  Embarrassed

if you really love her then what are you waiting for.age is nothing but numbers it all boils down to the chemistry between the 2 of you and thats exactly what love is all about ie loving the imperfect perfectly.the fact still remain that the more challenging a relationship is,the sweeter the memories. my guy forget traditional sentiment and be a creative guy you've always wanted to be.i'm behind you men

it does not mean anything that u are going out with a girl that is 5 years older than  u, what matters is "love" and other thi ngs is not important.
   teslim i don't know if it has happened to u before but i'm sure u can handle the situation if it happens that is there are better ways of handling such situation. Grin Shocked

Age is just a number that can be reversed. If you love her
then go for her, remember that because your marraid a lady 10
years younger than him don't mean their marriage will be happier
than yours. You know what? there is never going to be a bride you
will bring home without a family member seeing something wrong with
her so don't deterred, go marry your heart.

I think this has alot to do wit unerstanding n love. where the Nigerian mentality has no role 2 play in it,  no family feelings as long as u know what your going into n who your into it wit.

It is real good to follow your heart, but u must also use your head.No matter what anyone says, you are still going to do what u want to do.A ghanian friend of mine just got married to a kenyan girl who is 4yrs older than him and i must say that he asked for a lot of his pals opinion before the wedding and despite all that was said, he did what he wanted to do.Always remember that at the end of the day it's only the two of you.so if you want that then go ahead and live your life with her.The very best,

There's nothing wrong with it bro. , as long as she's the one you want to be with and you both treat each other like partners and not a mother-son relationship.

Personally, i wouldn't want 2 date 'nyone younger so he wouldn't hav 2 hav a msg thread like this (no guile intended)

n so that for the rest of our lives from time to time the "age diff" won't b one of those 'issues'

i also don't want folks to do mental maths on his '50th birthday' n are like
", wait a minute, weren't we at Tolu's 50th like 5 years ago?" Huh

thers's also the thing they say about women aging earlier, while men grow to be more dignified in their looks.

but that's ME!

it shouldnt b a big deal if u can handl it n if d both of u can b mature about it n treat each other with mutual respect
regardless.

besides many couples hav, and stay together for many many years

wish u the best

Really there is nothing to it. I see age as nothing really that converns anyone but the both of you who are inlove. I guess she loves it the way that you give it to her,  so I must commend that you must be the right oildriller in the minning field.

If you like and love her just do what you think your heart tells you, as for me if you liked I gave you an advise then I have this one for you,  I love older chicks because they are so easy to understand,  I have always dated older ones,  I have a brother who is about 9 years older than I am and I caught this chick and we started dating, we had had it several time in several wheres' till I decided to bring her to mama ( show her my crib) and found out that she was my eldest brothers classmate,  they got gisting and all then I found out there were close,  he calls her on the phone one day we were coincidentally at it and started trying to be fast,  she just handed the phone to me to hear all what he was saying and how he had this crush on her,  really I did respect her a lot because I know that someone younger wouldnt have done better,  she handled things her age would,

she asked me not to get into any aguements with him though and I should pretend I knew nothing.lol I  like her so much for this and you know that gave me so much reason to beleive that older chicks are the bomb,  they say things as they come and not just the way that you want to hear it.


If I had an opportunity with someone u have no,  I would go for her so far she is beatiful and has my type of qualities

there is nothing so special about having affair with a lady older than u in as much the Love and understanding is there. Besides what if u tell u lies reducing her age in such a way  that u think u are older that her, wont u go ahead and marry her  Cool,u beater not make her regret telling you the truth about her age.
i have dated someone older than me and the relationship was superb.

If there is love, then there is nothing wrong with it but i don't think i can do it because it would kind of irritate me to have sex with her and what is the point of marrying when u don't have sex.  maybe if she is very attractive sha.
