Hello Everyone in the Awesome community.
I hope this post met you all well.
It's a beautiful new week, and I was intrigued by the Prompt topic for this morning, it's quite a thoughtful question (Is Age just a Number in a relationship?) , it has been a discussion that has sparked many reactions in many people. It's no doubt very important to get to understand this.
Love is a very beautiful thing no doubt about that, but should the Age difference be a barrier in relationship?
Should we keep to same age kind of relationship or we can go ahead with being in relationship with people who are old enough to be our Mother or Father? If this is possible to Marry people more than twenty , thirty, or forty years older than us, is it acceptable in our Culture. Does the society accept this.
Here is my view on this very sensitive topic.
Definitely love clears all barriers and boundaries but the truth is Marrying someone too old can have a lot of implications and hinderances.
Am I against being in a relationship with older women?
My answer is NO, As long as there is Love, I mean true love, not love for getting her inheritance or any particular advantage from her. I am talking this in a perspective of a young Man like me marrying or dating someone extremely older than me, take for example thirty or forty years older than me.
I believe if we truly love eachother we can overcome many challenges but there are some challenges that may likely can't be avoided. Here are some practical
Health complications can always kick in:
This especially happens because of the old age, she might be getting sick often, she might need extra care and special treatment which will require medical personnel or so.
We might have difficulty having babies Menopause can vary in different women, if perhaps you are lucky enough you might still have a baby with your partner even though they reached menopause already, just note that it rarely happens.
You might have some Family issues; Your family and friends may have a hard time accepting that you marry an old person, (please note: we are using an example of marrying or dating someone thirty to forty years older than you)
Be Ready to be Alone at one point of Life
Everybody will die one day but in this case the probability that your very old partner will die before you is very high, so be ready when Nature kicks in.
Be ready to stay a long time without your lover especially if you don't plan on remarrying.
Sometimes she might just act like your Mather
This are scenario I formed up in my head lol, the truth is I haven't really been in a relationship with anyone as old as that.
Here are just some of what I think can go wrong in this type of relationship.
Apart from all this the bright side is that your partner would be more mature and understanding, she will have experience of relationship, sex and marriage and would make you enjoy more.
She would be real and straight to point with you.
Should there be a Age bracket for couples?
For me No, if you Love the person and you are ready to pay the sacrifice for Love, you are Good to Go, but just put it in Mind that Love Knows no Boundaries but Definitely Nature do.
In conclusion:
Set your priorities straight, if you are capable of loving you partner regardless of whether she older than you or not, go for it.
