The older the wine, the better the taste. If you guys flow, why not. MARRY the guy ok. You love him, dont you? so whats the biggy? you care too much about what pple say, thats a problem for you to address. Follow your heart babes, it will lead you to the right place. Good luck.

@ngojoygurl, . . . Dear, pls don't be angry kiss It wasn't my fault
Re: Can U Marry A Man That Is 12yrs Older Than U? by bebe2007(m): 9:52am On Jul 24, 2007
@poster,

Hey you!! how are we doing today? good you noted that problem. You are definately on your way to changing that. How is the man doing? not to worry he would treat you like a princess, you know, you will get away with alot of things cuz he would attribute them to the fact that you are young. Wouldnt you like that!!!!!!!!! grin grin the advantages of dating an older guy are numerous babes. The major disadvantage is the "been there, done that" attitude they tend to have towards things that you just might be crazy about right now.He definately will not share your craze for say RAP MUSIC, CLUBBING, HANGING IN JOINTS WITH YOUR FRIENDS, GOING SHOPPING FOR CLOTHES, TALKING ABOUT FASHION: WHATS IN WHATS OUT, BOWLING, CINEMA, PARTYING ETC. But if he is patient he just might pay attention to you and all the above but get prepared for him not bothering with those ok. He would most likely not seek your opinion when its time to make important decisions, you have to prove yourself for him to take you seriously.

Above all, it is well ok.

Hi everyone,

ngojoygurl, pls d age gap is excellent, u need a man dat can take gud care of u, dat is mature in all ramificatn. 40yrs is jut a number to be frank, u need a man dat knws d worthy of a woman at dat age, gathered enough solid experience of life n is read to settle down 4 gud, properly focus n moreover, sm1 dat has gotten to a level in life dat he will nt compromise God's standard. marrying a man at watever age is nt d main reason or wat to lookout 4, bt d man's believe, passion n standard as a person.

ur little interractn wit zignor i hope he will nt get u confused oh!!! dis little lets chat secretly let it nt lead ot a little confusion to d man dat is seeking ur hand in marriage oooooooooooo.

babe, we need a mature hand to handle us nt a babe-man dat cant read or understand women signs, if u knw wat i mean.

pray seriously concerning d values n nt necessarily d age pls. We re serving a God of d POSSIBILITY. age doesnt count to me, bt dat doesnt mean i shld marry an 80yrs old man anyway.

@ladym . . .lmao . . .for your info, age of metusela has nothing to do with solomon wisdom cheesy

in a nutshell, wisdom is better than age cos a fool is a fool no matter the age tongue tongue
Re: Can U Marry A Man That Is 12yrs Older Than U? by ngojoygurl(f): 1:03pm On Jul 27, 2007
Zignor,

Is true!! age has nothing to do with wisdom.
Re: Can U Marry A Man That Is 12yrs Older Than U? by funloving(m): 2:36pm On Jul 27, 2007
I honestly don't think a website or online forum of faceless people is the best place to seek advice concerning something as important as who to marry

@Poster,
You are the one who is going to live with whosoever you chose to marry. We can't really advice you on this. You pray about it, talk to your closest friends and family and above all, if you are deeply convinced that you want to spend the rest of your life with this man, go ahead.

One way to analyse this is: Imagine the man is old, frail and sick. The kids are all gone from the house and you are left alone with him. Will you still be happy to tarry in his presence, love him and care for him ?

Whatever answer you give to this might be a pointer to what you should do ?

For the sake of it, an age gap of 12 years is not really that much, the only snag being that the guy is already 40. That is no longer a young man by any standard

Ngo-girl--Your posts are just too funny-I think your exchanges with Zignor is just so cute. You both started to go at each other's neck but then quickly became best of acquaintances--I have been laughing the whole time. Thanks for that girl.

Well, to respond to your question , No, I do not personally see anything wrong with marrying a man 12 y older than you are. I personally just responded to a different thread saying that I desired to marry someone at least 10 years older than me and not more than 12, I think 15 year gap is fine for you if that is want you desire. I think older men are adorable; Not for what they have to offer because I enjoying giving rather than receiving anyway. I hate to ask or borrow things, I enjoy gifts from the heart. I definately would be turned off if I knew the older man was trying to buy my love because I am priceless  wink. Moreover, I am a daddy's girl so the more he reminds me of my dad, the better, He can sit me on his lap and whisper sweet nothings in my ear  wink.awww, My sweet old man Moses.

Agape!

There's nothing wrong in marrying a man older than you by any number of years. All needed is that you love and respect him, and he be ready to do same, and treat you as an equal to him.

Love is all that matters, so what has age got to do with it? As far as yours truly is concerned the older, the better.
So girl, follow your heart. You deserve to be happy.
One thing: don't do it cos of pressure, and don't do it out of pity.
Goodluck and invite us to the wedding!
Guys, what do you think?
