Good morning Sir.

Lol!
Really? I never knew I write so well. Anyway, Thanks for the compliment. And No, I haven't considered Poetry. I'll write, someday. I have lots of lines and ideas in my head, but I lack the ability to put down in written words.

How're you doing?
Hi, can we talk on WhatsApp? I'm a self made writer and poet, and I particularly don't think you lack the ability like you might have misjudged yourself. It's something you can do, like breathing—like walking. Like you just wrote the above piece. But you know, it's fine to conclude you lack the ability to put those ideas and lines down; it's what on a general basis gifted people always do: underestimate themselves.


Zero eight one six four four eight five one one zero. Chat me up whenever you are convinced you are one of the rarely gifted poets and writers this generation needs.

please i need your sincere advice on this
my current girlfriend i have dated for over 2 years now we have agree to take it further (marriage) but my concern is that she is the same age as me and infact her birthday comes before mine. so i want to know if marrying someone that has same age with you is bad or not

please no insult just your sincere advice
How many husbands are older than their wives yet the marriage ended in divorce? If you can predict the ratio, then you have your answer that age is inconsequential. You left weightier issues to attend to things people who are only after the natural looks at.

As per ageing...when will Kokumo not die...even if you marry someone 5 years younger, she will still age and fade later on. Perhaps you should ask certain men why after marrying a younger beautiful woman still go ahead to cheat, abandon and look for fresh 'meat.' Then you should know the problem isn't age/fading. I don't normally comment on a thread like this, but I just want to challenge your judgment (how you view life) because you still need the wisdom of God, not the stereotypical way of viewing things people hold and yet hasn't produced better marriages so far. WHat would a wise man do? Will he go for her because he will have peace of mind with her and full of virtues or because she doesn't age faster?

Re: Does Age Really Matter When It Comes To Marriage? by Octaves(m): 2:19am On Apr 01, 2018
@op, if you love her and think she'll make a good wife go ahead. or else there is some other reason you don't want to marry her. I don't think age is a serious issue here since you are both the same age. the way women age depends on their genes. some age faster. some with or without cosmetic/ nutritional maintenance look good as they age. I know two cousins with older wives. one about 2 yrs difference, the other roughly the same age. they are doing just fine. the women are still looking good after 8 years and some kids. it depends on understanding and love. most people here giving advice are not even married.

After reading this balderdash you penned down, I couldn't but help to shake my head in disaffirmation. You're a total DISGRACE to Man. You simply portray no sense of emulation. What's these?
Advising someone to go get a trashy 'self acclaimed' Camry car to woo and impress ladies?
Argh! You nauseate me!
You're just a total show-off. Men like you seem to be bland and drab concerning the happenings of the society. You simply have nothing to show forth. If 'Women' are useless and cheap as mentioned, I suppose your mother must have been dealt with sexually countless times with a vast number of men. Little wonder, the stupidity lingers on. I implore you to see and respect women. We are not all that it seems. I'm not here to preach, nor do I comment on threads, but this? No, I will not pass. I hope you'll be sent to the purgatory to be cleansed off your obnoxious and stench-filled aura. It's highly contagious!
Having said these, I come to conclude that you're a bad example to other men.
Mind your comments!

Oga so its now that you are ready to take decision abi,why did you start dating her in the first place when you weren't sure you will end up with her. after she has given you 2 years of her life its now you are seeking for advice, the stuff that you saw in her that kept you guys together for 2 years should also kept you guys in marriage,and for those saying the lady will get older than the guy and start looking like the guys mom plz Not in all cases there are some ladies 50 years of age with children and grandchildren and dey still look sweet 16 African ladies once dey get married and give birth to 2 children they don't take good care of themselves and it not good.

no vex too much ...otherwise nairaland will kill you ...

see, nairaland changed me to a bias human being when it concerns gender..the only thing is I try as much as possible to remain good offline but ruthless and bias as possible online.

it's not just from the guy but you need to see your fellow women comment sentimentally on gender/sex/relationship issues, then you will understand what I mean if you're really sincere about being unsentimental.

he's just being as revengeful as he can online...don't blame him...everyone has a pitiable/painful side to their story.

Whatever pitiable story he had to tell should have been kept to himself. We don't need his indecent choices of words. He is too vulgar, and I detest such people. I'm not one to foolishly comment on every dumb threads, I just couldn't let that pass. I needed to give him a share of my madness.

Memories12411:
[s]No one will tell you that it matters because there's nothing to hold on to in terms of religion and traditions. But let me be sincere with you "it matters". Women get older earlier than men because of the nature of their bodies. After some years into the marriage you will begin to see people giving her unnecessary respect thinking she's your elder sister or mum. How will you feel?. When your friends marry younger women your wife will not be comfortable with the relationship because she will be the older one and inferiority complex will set in. Like wise when you you are with her friends and their husbands you will be treated like a small boy because you are the same boy her friends know. Again, your family will be telling her to her face that you married an old woman. Finally, the two of you at home. Will she respect you when she knows she is older? I'm not saying it doesn't or it can't happen but if you can stand what comes out of it you can go ahead. I stand to be corrected.[/s]

Your level of INSECURITY COMPLEX is really something else!

In fact, your level of INSECURITY COMPLEX is really out of this world!

You sound as someone who seeks approval from people around you before you can do even the slightest things.

Anyway sha, I thank God everyone is not like you.

[b][/b] I Don't Want To Accept It Is Wrong Getting Married To A Woman Who Is One's Age. The Problem With Most Women Is That When they Are Married, They Want To "Dress And Behave Like Married Women". Am Not Talking About Provocativeness But Dress Smart And Do Things With Panache.

Apart Frm Menopause, I Don't Think It Has Been Proved Scientifically That Women Get Older Faster Than Men. Our Culture And Tradition Are Responsible For Some Of These Things/discriminations. In Some Places Of Work, Once U R Pregnant, U R Off.

Some Women, It Is Religion. Why Can't A Woman Put On Trousers And Shorts? She Sits At Home Most Times Because She Is Cut Off Frm Doing Some Things , Perhaps, Apart Frm Work.

Some Men Are The Cause. They Want Full Time House Wives; Someone Who Will Baby Sit For Them.It Is Pathetic That In The 21st Century, Some Young Men Are So Possessive, Jealous And Selfish That They Restrict And Cage Their Wives At Home. Yet, Some Will Come Out To Say They Get Old Quickly. A Man Living A Sedentary And Boring Life, and stress filled life will get very old over night.

If u get married to someone that will love and respect you, treat her well. Allow her to dress well and smart but not provocative. The two of you should help each other to live a stress free life. Eat good food; balanced diet and live healthily. Your wife will not get old faster than u. And who says a girl that gets married as virgin cannot become promiscuous? I laugh in Swahili.

Poverty and illiteracy are also causative agents of non- attractiveness of women. When I talk about illiteracy, I mean uncivilised mentality. Broadly speaking, we have many educated illiterates.

I think we can change this perception...

I do not think it will matter in this your case. Suppose you just meet and she is at desperation stage when she can hide her attitudes, i would have suggest you take your time. You guys are of the same age, she can not hide her character. I do not dispute older ladies base on they gets older early, but because many of them hide their real characters just to get married and later changed during marriage. Take your time to reason over it, think of her attitudes so far. Once she is natural attitudinally, and not at despirate stage, you are good to go.
