I'm 30, She's 18 Can I Marry Her? by 1Music2luv(m): 1:16pm On May 26, 2008
Hi Guys, Intelligence & Smartness is what takes me off my feet in ladies.

Recently i met a girl that has all these stuffs,
we started dating, but the problem is that she is still young, she's 18yrs old. I actually wanted a relationship that will lead to marriage. But i found myself dating her, we are in luv wit each other.

The issue is , do u think this will work out ? do you think this can lead to marriage? or should i wait for while b4 talking of that? Should i continue to encourage her or Quit?

I'm confused.

u dont need nairalanders to tell you what is right or wrong.

in this case, the choice is yours, an eighteen year old girl is matured enof to know what she wants, as long as she wants you despite your age, why are u worried.

she should be the one posting this and not you. or is she complaining? cant you handle her because she is so young? what exactly is ur problem?

Getting married isn't the problem embarassed, it is the willingness and

ability to be able to cope after the marriage, smiley

U both must be ready to make a lot of sacrifices and be

extremly patient and accommodating,

Well all the best in Ur final decision. cool

At 18, if she has attained mental maturity,i don`t think it should be a problem, you can work things out, and things will always work out.All the best

My wife was a little bit above 18 years when i married her and she was very matured at that age.Age is very minor when it comes to marriage but being matured matters

Well, she is 18, she is of legal age, why not. But, why can you not find a girl closer to your age, maybe for more of the same experiance? But, if that is what you both want, go for it. undecided

NOOO you pedohouse reject!!







Ok that was a bit harsh sorry.


My point is, she's too young. Give her a bit of time to really explore who SHE is then maybe reconsider when she's @ least 25. At 30 yrs I expect you would have been with every type of woman. She however is untried. I was there just a relationship ago (me 19, him 29). Due to that relationship I've sworn off Naija men for a long while. Trust me. Lay off her. She's still a child and you are a full grown adult and this relationship borders on pedophilia. Stick with somenone closer to your age or within your age group (25 - 32 bracket). When you were 11 them just dey consider am.

How is he a pedo?
Are they not both adults?
Think of it like this, if she were 30 and him 50
What's the big thing there?

age is NOT "nothing" but a number. I think that at 18 a gal has not gained adequate life expereinces and life expereinces matter, for you, for the marriage, for perception, and most importantly for her children, How can someone truly "train"her children if she is a child herself or for that matter has not had too many life experiences,

If you loved her, I would recommend to give her more time, at least wait till 21, for her to expereince life more. grin grin

Re: I'm 30, She's 18 Can I Marry Her? by madamkoko: 12:07am On May 28, 2008
henry007 i actually think that marrying young is 18th century and women choosing to marry later is more of a 21st centruy phenomenon. Because they go to school, have careers and what not.

What's the difference between an 18year old and a 21 year old? 3years
He said he saw her intelligence, that should give her the ability to make her choices

About her chidren, She'll prolly not be a mum till she's 21
She doesn't need to face the tough stage till she's 24 or sumn
And believe me, responsibility brings out the best in some people.
It's now medically advised to have your kids early, and then grow up looking sexy at 30's to 60's

well u have a point there but anything that's bizzare in this century is considered as something of the old u get? i'm expecting people 2 take it as somthing normal and not the archaic thing the old school thing. he shldn't listen 2 people who think a 12 yr gap is old school
Re: I'm 30, She's 18 Can I Marry Her? by 702: 12:20am On May 28, 2008
