Hmm. . . women? Having got married to her, one day, one way or the other, she's most likely to remind you that she is older than you are (even with FIVE [/b]good years). Now, if you really can deal with that, go ahead and marry her!

As for me, the minimum is [b]FIVE years younger

you think marrying a younger woman will guaranty you happiness? i sorry for una!
Re: Marrying A Woman 5 Years Older by Douzy(m): 6:49am On Apr 19, 2007
Nobody said so.
However, all said and done, it's safer to marry a younger woman.

If a man is really looking for happiness here on earth, then I wonder if he really needs to marry.

safer? how? pls explain what safety has to do with any of this.
when you guys think of an older woman you see an old hag. the so called "old women" may look like regina askia. they arent always haggard like people think. besides these days with austerity men have started looking down right haggard before their time. grin

if she looks good and takes care of herself, I see nothing wrong with it, remember BLACK DON'T CRACK, I have seen a many aged Black women who look beautiful and have fooled many at first glance, thinking she was 10 years younger. It's the melanin BABY!

Sorry babes. . .lol. undecided
Re: Marrying A Woman 5 Years Older by earthtones(f): 9:36pm On May 04, 2007
What women are you looking at, most older women appear to take better care of themselves then their husbands, and therefore tend to have a more youthful appearance, in addition to having a longer lifespan!
Re: Marrying A Woman 5 Years Older by trendy(f): 2:41pm On May 07, 2007
lol, @ douzy , i was just reacting to this statement

If a man is really looking for happiness here on earth, then I wonder if he really needs to marry.

i dont agree with it
Re: Marrying A Woman 5 Years Older by Douzy(m): 12:34am On May 08, 2007
Well, one doesn't really need to be married to attain real happiness.
Re: Marrying A Woman 5 Years Older by trendy(f): 1:21pm On May 09, 2007
I still dont agree with you though
but one thing i agree with is that
getting married is optional
but not that if you want real happiness you dont have to marry
Re: Marrying A Woman 5 Years Older by Douzy(m): 9:49pm On May 09, 2007
I didn't say you don't have to, but that you don't need to, as in, marriage not being an essential means to or requisite for true happiness.

Some issues are not to be remembered after answering.
Marrying a woman with the same age with you is even funny m
ore or less talking about older than In Nigeria you have fall our hand.
Re: Marrying A Woman 5 Years Older by Maleeq(m): 12:53pm On May 24, 2007
Like the saying goes, "Never say never". But I don't see myself getting married to someone older than me.Worst case, she'd be thesame age with me.

Come o, what pet name would I be calling her?: Aunty? or Honey?

@Poster

Follow your heart. If you feel good about it, let noone change that.

All the best.

Re: Marrying A Woman 5 Years Older by crazyp(f): 4:31pm On Jul 03, 2007
For me oo, marrying someone younger than you is not too nice.

Even when these guys marry someone 10 yrs younger, they still dey "straph" outside,
its more comfortable to know that your husband is your senior, so that people no go ask you
whether you force am to marry you by pregnancy or otherwise when he starts misbehaving, i don talk finish.
Re: Marrying A Woman 5 Years Older by Creamish(f): 5:34pm On Jul 03, 2007

Re: Marrying A Woman 5 Years Older by Godsgirl(f): 5:26pm On Jul 27, 2007
I wouldn't marry a man 5 years younger than me. I'm afraid that I will treat him like a child and I do not believe any man (no matter the age) deserves that kind of treatment.  I guess it's all in the human psyche but I would prefer to marry an older man. My choice could very well have stemmed from my junior high school experiences. During after school lessons, the boys in class were practically in "heat" every day and wanted to get in every girl's pants; only to write the names of their victims the next day on the wall, with illustrations of their pubic area on display. I'm sure you can imagine how such images could affect a 14 y/o girl at the time. I generally think older men (having already been there and done that) have a better sense of control. My future husband will be at least 10 years older than I am and no more than 12. I've got it all planned out. FYI, I do realise that some older men could act as kids, therefore I do not base my decision on age alone.

Agape!
