If we look long, hard and deep enough we will definitely find factors that can hinder every relationship including those with little age difference as well those with a sizeable age difference. That being said, love can conquer almost all (not all) other factors.

like someone mentioned before, Beyonce has made a successful home with Jayz despite a 12 year age difference. As the time they started dating, she was 19 and he was around 31. Their marriage has had its share of ups and downs but they stuck with it. While I am not saying that every young lady has to be a Beyonce copycat, I feel their marriage has shown that sizeable age gap is not a barrier to a blissful marriage. Do you know that there is a ten year age gap between Omotola jolade and her husband. Omotola married him when she was 18 and he was 28. Despite that, their marriage is by all accounts, blissful several years after. Some other actresses who married their age mates did not spend up to two years in wedlock before divorcing.

My point simply is; if a young girl finds love in the arms of a much older man, she would be a fool not to damn the factors and plunge headlong into it.

HIS EXPERIENCE COUNTS
When it comes to sex, an older male is perceived as knowing his way around the bedroom. He's had to time to perfect his technique, and he can show his younger lover a good sexual time.With an older man, women don't expect any awkward moments in the dark. They expect the guy to know exactly what he is doing and to take the time to meet their needs.

READY FOR COMMITMENT

ady had time to experiment and play the field. Now, they are looking to settle down and commit to a long-term relationship or even to marriage. At this point in his life, he knows that he doesn't want to be alone, and he knows the type of woman who will make him happy. If they have not already had children with previous spouses, older men may wish to immediately marry and start a new family.

BETTER AT COMMUNICATING


ladies are drawn to older men because they are better communicators. Men with an age advantage of 15 years or more have already been through previous relationships. They have learned from their mistakes. They will try not to repeat these actions as they work on a new relationship. Older guys may dwell less on jealousy issues and instead focus on communicating clearly with you so that there will be no misunderstandings. He will be ready to work at makingthis relationship succeed.

What older men and younger women have in common is they are both suffering from different insecurities. She is looking for someone to make her feel safe, and he is looking for someone who doesn't answer back.. and that's a trophy.

chisco82:

I believe she is talking about exposure there, beside at that age the lady must have been well exposed and be able to handle things absolutely on her own.
Don't forget that is her balanced age.

Broda stop twisting ur words abeg!!

What led to all this argument was cos I said; "I thought we were talking about dating and not necessarily leading to marriage."

Who doesn't want to get married some day? Maybe a few tho.

You made a logical assertion that

"For a girl to have a boyfriend, there is an equal and proportional desire to get married someday.

And I assumed by that statement you meant to the same guy. Well I got your point and its not rocket science to know that most Nigerian girls want to get married someday.

Now get my point, Nigerian girls date a particular guy not necessarily because they want to get married to him but for so many other reasons too. I am just staying in the confines of the OP's post.

Which is;

"Reasons why girls/ladies DATE older guys"

And my point once again is that they don't all date because they want to get MARRIED.

Chikena!!!!!

And my point once again is that they don't all date because they want to get MARRIED.

Date/marry an older guy then end up being a widow by 40

mirexxx:

I don't date older men
the so called older men that act like kids
they expect you to reason the way they do automatically!
I prefer a guy at most 5yrs older than me and we'll start from there and learn from each other.
not one experienced old guy who will treat you as a kid!
probably cheat on you,abuse sef
most of them are abusive because of the wide gap in the age!

just pray I don't add u to my haters list

naijaboiy:

But is it really all about marriage though?

missclasssy:
First of all, let's bare in mind that humans develop emotionally and cognitively with age.
The older a guy is, the more experienced he becomes in many areas such as decision making, finance, handling stress, taking care of his partner and running a relationship

He is able to make better decisions due to the knowledge garnered all through the years.
He also becomes more mature in perception and judgment.

We ladies believe that an older partner must have engaged in a relationship or two before ours so he would be shrewd in handling our own.
We believe an older guy to be more emotionally stable than someone younger.

Women naturally feel more relaxed being under a protective figure and we have a default perception to seeing older guys as such.

Op, we shouldn't also eliminate the critical concept of love making
Most ladies believe an older partner must definitely be more competent in satisfying their sexual needs.

But I will always say this,
~ Whenever two people genuinely love each other, "Age" becomes but mere figures.
