Marrying An Older Lady? by sKeetz(m): 11:12am On Nov 29, 2020
I'm dating an older woman. The difference in our ages is just 2 years. She is everything a man can ever dream of.

She's very supportive. Doesn't bother me and let's me do my thing. She doesn't boss me or anything of sorts. She's also very independent, but the only thing that stresses me out is our age difference and it's quite obvious cause i even look quite younger than my age and she's quite matured both physically and mentally.

Are there any cons to marrying a lady that is older? Guys who are married to older ladies, are there any traits i should look out for ?

Ps: we've been dating for 4 years now, so its not like i just met her. So i know everything about her and she knows everything about me.

The major con is that in the next 10 years she will likely be looking far older than you and you may be embarrassed to introduce her as your wife undecided

Age is just a number. Your self image is the key to balancing age differences. Although somethings are not sustainable on the long run. Men grow more attractive with time because of stability, unfortunately, the same cannot be said for the female folks.

Does she tick some of the boxes in what you want in a woman?

Does she give you peace?

Does she support your dreams and visions?

Is there mutual respect?

Very salient questions. undecided

If her age is stressing you out go marry a younger woman grin

And flaunt and bask in her age undecided

Op, age is not the issue here. You’re too immature for her. Please do her a world of good and let her go. She needs to be free to meet a mature and compassionate man who will treat her well and not seek seek approval from Nairaland or others.

Actually there’s nothing to worry about. But the problem is that the lady would quickly reach the wall and she would not be sexually appealing to you, and you’d have to go out to keep looking for ladies in their 20’s

You can see the graph I uploaded below to see the age preferences of men and women respectively

2 years age difference is in my opinion minimal to cause any worry. Relax

Well, life is such an ironic circle. look at what gives you cold feet when I'm personally looking for a lady 10 to 15 years older. I really can't deal with all these immature with utopian conception of life.

Something to worry about. With time her respect for you as her husband will fade considering many factors other than her seniority, she's independent too. Bros u no go get say, u also may at some point lose courage to confront certain issues around her.

This is Africa and Nigeria, firstly, both families won't take it lightly, your self esteem won't remain intact, the man in you would always force itself to prove superiority which is supposed to happen naturally, her respect for you as the head would come with question marks, she'd wear out in your eyes shortly into the marriage, even younger girls do after few conceptions, you won't be bold enough to say it out that your wife is older than you're. There are so many ladies who are younger than you with such qualities as she possesses and so many men older than she is who could match her preferences in a man. Just let her be, except you both were born and bred abroad where such factors aren't considered.

Don't worry when you marry her, she will mummy you about, na you go run.

Dont marry her, marry your junior, she has already seen who she will oppress.

This independent woman won't follow your lead and you will regret.

Dont listen to motivational speakers. marriage is a long time go, it can make or break you.

The advice i have for you, if you want her are these

Study her history, how was her last relationship like was she promiscuous, was she living a healthy lifestyle, i am sure, you want kids, this is very important.

Does she have a good relationship with her father...a woman that has a very good relationship with her father will likely be a good woman to her husband.

Baggage baggage, her silence must just be a pretense to get you into marriage, past baggage is very important or na trouble you go enter.

Try to do things together, does she know how to control her emotions? is she impulsive? Is she the one that want to create a scene after a litte fight, these are all red flags.

I have never seen a woman that does not give trouble, no matter how gentle she is. Na from trouble dem dey know personality not from being silence.

How a guy decides to marry a lady older than him beats my imagination. Do you Know women age way faster than men? Why don't you look for fresh juice to drink than settling for stale milk.

Use your head.
