i dont mind that, i mean that is the choice of the lady and the older man, if they are happy with it for whatever reasons, i guess its really up to them.

Hi LC, just back from vacation! What a tall order here. Well, I am 16 years older than my husband. I don't feel my age. It is not a problem for us. I was ready to say that it is no big deal until I saw just how much of an age difference. All I can say it that down the road when she has to "take care of him" and I do mean take care of him big time...she will change her mind and then she will feel guilty about wanting to leave him because she wants her freedom.

Hello! I personally don't like the idea of a marriage between a man and woman with wide age gap.It can not be called an ideal marriage.in an ideal marriage the age gap would be between three to five years.In your friend's case there might be some hidden intention otherwise she would not have agreed to marry a pretty old man who might be of her father's or grand father's age.This is not good match.thanx.

I dont mind them as long as it is not a forced marriage. After all it is their life and they know how to deal with it.

I don't think there is something wrong with young lady marrying to an old man. I am only 25 and my partner is already 61 but we never feel that our age gap is that much. Depend abcorse of what the woman purpose is, if she is marrying him for money that it is not right. Friends and family of the fiancee of your friend should be able to judge whats the intention of the woman by the way she act. In my relationship with my partner I told him we don't have to get married as long as we are happy and if ever we get married if he is in doubt about his wealth I am more than happy to sign an agreement for protection of his property against me. That is how much I LOVE that man many years older than me.

Is she getting married to him out of her free will?? If yes then she must be doing it for the money!! But let me tell you that is the exact age gap between me and my mother!! Or else is she being forced to marry him by her family, i know things like that happen in India. I personally dont think it right for a girl that age to marry a person her fathers age.
