My fiance and I have been dating for the past 3years. I attained 24 last week, I wanted to get married to her last year but I just wanted to wait till I attain 24.

The problem I have now is my mom. She is opposing our marriage because my fiancee is 5 years older than me, I'm 24 while she's 29. My dad has already endorsed the marriage, I'd have liked to go on with the marriage but I don't think going into marriage without both parents blessing is sensible that's why I need my mom's blessing and endorsement.

My fiance has good character, she's very kind and intelligent, I can't afford to lose her because of pressures from my mom at least I'm an adult.

I don't know what's happening, my mom endorsed our relationship but she doesn't endorse our marriage just because she's 5years older than me. The thing is, I can't leave this lady ,not now not ever, she have done so many things for me.

in fact she even promised to provide 80% of the things needed for the marriage!. She is rich, yes she is, the house I'm in living in now belongs to her, I moved in with her in 2016.

The truth is I love her and I can't afford to lose her because of my mom's wish. Both her parents and my dad have given us go ahead for marriage but my mom still doesn't want me to marry because of age and my fiance is beautiful.

I don't know what do now ,that's why I think I need advice from you guys,.I don't know if I should go ahead with the marriage without my mom's endorsement/blessings.

please advice
Is she the one you love or the comfort she provides?

Her only objection is the age gap? What does she think will happen? Talk to her honestly and frankly if her only objection is the age gap then you will also have to state your reasons for wanting to marry her.

You are no longer a child sometimes you have to go against the tide even if that tide is mother. Does she not want to see you happy? This is what you need to explain to her.

Why does it have to be about control? A marriage cannot be mutually beneficial or it has to be a master and slave sort of arrangement to be called a marriage?

Give your mom an ultimatum: I'm getting married that's final, either you come or you don't come. Age doesn't play any role in marriage.. if you are matured enough and so is she then I see why not? My GF is 10 years older than me and I currently don't care. Both our families know.
are u 4 real, yeah?
Re: My Mom Doesn't Want Me To Marry My Fiancee Because She's 5 Years Older Than Me by zicoraads: 10:44pm On Apr 11, 2018
The minute you said this, "I can't leave her because she has done so many things for me..." was when I concluded your mom to be right.

Let's tell ourselves the bitter truth. You don't love her, just what she provides. You don't have a valid reason, just the fact that she provides for you.

I'm sure you already have what to do in mind, so I wish you all the best.

I don't know why you guys reason this way


Guy, go ahead with the marriage, just tell your mum, it's your decision to make, since your dad is with you on these, ure good to go, Don't mind all these mofos and hypocrite telling you trash and gold diggers, If only they meet such a girl like your girlfriend, They won't even think twice b4 marrying her off. They are jealous of your success. I wish you well in your marriage jare, If the marriage will be held in Ibadan, call me, I would love to grace such beautiful occasion.

They say what an elder can see while sitting down, a child cannot see it even if he climbs a palm tree. My bro, you are too young to get married now, you have a whole lot to learn in life. To me, it's no big deal marrying her but look at it from this angle. What will happen if you guys have issue and she abuses you in term of finance, or she get bored of you and decide to do things her way. Although still doesnt count but you should look into the long run of the marriage, don't let love lead you, use your head cos a mistake in first marriage can never be written off, and can affect the rest of your life. Peace
