As long as they are both mentally and physically (<<both have matured bodies and at least older than 21) matured adults who know and love themselves, know what they want in life, and where they are going in life I think that age differences become unimportant. |

Personally i dont think that age is a factor where there is true love, I remember when i was younger i always say that i'd never date a guy who was more than 5 years older than me and now i am with some 19 years older actually he's 41, |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by LadyT(f): 9:55am On Jun 04, 2009 |
JamaicanQT: Sometimes older guys can have more patience and they can be more loving. . . Since they have been there done that and have the T-Shirt |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by JamaicanQT(f): 9:59am On Jun 04, 2009 |
Exactly, i find it really hard to relate to guys who are in my age group i feel as if they take everything for a big joke. They are never serious and always chasing skirts |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by C2H5OH(f): 10:02am On Jun 04, 2009 |
Guys in general are always chasing skirts. And that's a true stereotype in many cases. The norm is that dudes date younger women and chicks date older men. I got a little thing for older women. Maybe about 2 or so years older than i am or something  |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by Nobody: 10:06am On Jun 04, 2009 |
Used to say 'Oh Ill never date a guy who is soso older than me' but now I've sort of changed my mind, I think I prefer the older guys, but not tooo old. |

 ibkaye:you this naughty woman did you see my email? |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by Nobody: 10:12am On Jun 04, 2009 |
LadyT:Lol, no o, Ill go check sha   |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by interestin: 11:27am On Jun 04, 2009 |
Its a personal decision. |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by manmustwac(m): 11:34am On Jun 04, 2009 |
JamaicanQT:So dose that mean that girls are more matured than guys in thier own age group? |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by Nobody: 11:36am On Jun 04, 2009 |
manmustwac:Sometimes, yes  |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by luxoire(f): 11:41am On Jun 04, 2009 |
I used to think maturity is in age. However i realised it is in the mind i am with a young guy (still older than me - i am still in the group of women who would not attempt to date anyone younger than me) - who behaves more matureely than my ex who was older! so i think it depends on the individual - but generally a mature mind has a lot more to offer a woman who is looking for comfort and stability in her life than an immature soul!!   |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by Kelvinj(m): 11:48am On Jun 04, 2009 |
Hey ladies watz all dis about guyz much older dan their girls. Wel itz cool but i blive ders a big difference b/w age nd maturity i guez! |

i'm 32 going after a lady of 24. but she says i'm old for her. please i want the house to tell me if thats true? |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by luxoire(f): 12:06pm On Jun 04, 2009 |
are you 32 but looking closer to 40 and behaving like that - or are you a 'yuppy' 32yr old who looks/acts and dresses close to 28? |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by koolguy88(m): 12:13pm On Jun 04, 2009 |
we were only talking on phone and she i sound far younger than when she saw me physically |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by Tonyet1(m): 12:13pm On Jun 04, 2009 |
@Ladies, i bet ya'll , u will alwayz need a younger G no matter how childish you claim that we behave 1, a young G has the life of the party, ladies love virtual world than the real world ask me how 2. he is playful  , which is one thing all my chics have always craved for in a guy 3. a young G has got the fresh blood, you know what i mean 4. you both grow together, tolerating each other, learning everday from eachother, and even start raising families very young, not like em' old guys who already have got the experience, and the lady is just like a follower to a leader 5. A young G is exciting, he is trendy, old men aint that, if you ladies will be true to yaselves 6. Young men live longer,u dont wnat to b a ***** too young,do you?  Also: a true long lasting relationship always comes from two inexperienced folks, lest if two are experienced, its like two captains rolling a ship i can go on and on abt the merits of dating a young G now back to the Topic @poster, i think Age could be a barrier, especially when we consider how folks die too early this days |

guy anybody can die anytime age is not a barrier [color=#990000][/color] |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by virgie(f): 12:59pm On Jun 04, 2009 |
Well, my Guy is actually 3 years younger than myself. Because bof this issue, I have refused to take the relationship a step further. He has even proposed to me, but I am stll holding back. He is a very wonderful guy but, I dont know, , I feel he is too young for me. Often times, it is a personal decision to make whether it shld matter or not. |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by Nobody: 1:03pm On Jun 04, 2009 |
virgie:If you feel this way, why are you still with him  |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by JustGood(m): 1:08pm On Jun 04, 2009 |
It is not bad that a guy be slightly older than his spouse/date. What I find intriguing is that when European and American women get slightly older, they look for younger boys to satisfy their longings (whatever those longings are!). |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by otukpo(f): 1:19pm On Jun 04, 2009 |
Age is definitely a barrier, at least in Naija. We just finished discussing that before i opened this thread. Warning: I have a right to my opinion and nobody should querry me for that. So dont borther throwing insults. |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by Nobody: 1:21pm On Jun 04, 2009 |
Personally would not feel comfortable dating somebody younger than me, older guys are my cup of tea. |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by saintade01(m): 1:25pm On Jun 04, 2009 |
Well i think the men have no problem with this. But the ladies can confess that with their mouth here but can't really do it. |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by oludashmi(f): 1:25pm On Jun 04, 2009 |
JamaicanQT: Same with me. I too used to say I can't marry a guy that is more than 3 years older than I am but here I am being chased all around by matured guys. I mean 10-15 years older. Infact, I have seen a 25 years different before willing to marry me. LadyT:Thats true! Age may and may not be a barrier, it all depends on your taste. I personally don't feel comfortable/happy with guyz of my age or that are slightly older. Older ones have always been my choice. |

[b] Age is nothing but a number.Age in a relationship varies from individuals,some like it wide, while some like it short.Please note that maturity is all that counts in a relationship i.e emotional,spiritual, financial etc maturity.One might be old in age but not in other important sphere of life which is the most vital. whether same or different age it, has been established that the head will always be the man.There can be equality in age but not in roles and responsibility. |
| Re: Is Age A Barrier In A Relationship by Oxone(m): 1:36pm On Jun 04, 2009 |
age matters alot cos most times age determines the maturity of the people, until recently i never dated anyone younger or in the same age grade with me cos most of them were too young & immature for me |
