I would really like to know your views on what you consider the "ideal" age gap between a husband and his wife. A friend and her fiancé have an age gap of 15 years, with the man having 4 children. She is 26.

quote:

Are you a man who is thinking of striking up long term relationship with a woman who is more than 15 years younger than you? Since the beginning of time, men have been attracted to young, nubile women. Mother Nature dictates that men of any age will feel an urge to seek out a fertile vessel in which to plant his seed. At middle age, women view Mother Nature as rather mean in this regard. “May-December” romances are judged harshly by women above the age of 45. The criticism of your mother, ex-wife, daughters, aunts, and female cousins and friends will come your way the moment you make your plans public.

Will you be able to find things in common with your young love? Will her tastes and sensibilities vary greatly from your own? Will she still be interested in you when you begin to age more rapidly than she? Will the two of you be able to agree on whether or not to have children? Will you be able to keep up with her? Why is she interested in you?



There are a number of reasons that you might want to select a younger mate. She may be physically attractive, and her presence may rejuvenate you. You will be the envy of your male friends, relatives, and business associates. She can give you a fresh start in life, including a new family if you choose to have children. She will extend you genuine admiration, and try hard to please you. All of these things might be quite alluring to you. The question that remains, however, is, “Why does she want to be involved with you?”

What can you say about Celine Dion and her hubby. If it was only power and money, I think she already had it before they began.

I didnt say there no genuine rlshps in that category; Celine and her hubby fall under the 5 or is it 2%

While not disagreeing with most of your observation, I must say that it is possible to have sincere relationships with peopel of diferent ages.

Sometimes, a girl who is not interested in partying may look for a father figure in older men. She can be content on occasional nyamchom and mutura with the mzee who guarantee her a sense of marital stability and security. This issue is quite complicated.

The mzee might be weak in that department, but strong in others.

assuming the mzee is 60yrs old.

quote:

The young atoti(girl)will look for satisfaction else where of course.

quote:

I wonder what other departments the mzee might be strong at.
