Re: 31 unmarried
Thank you girls! ~The 22 year old is a second cousin. We met at a wedding 3 years ago and got on really well. He's very religious so does not go out with girls. His family have asked my mum many times for my rishta but she's really worried about the age gap. She doesn't know that he likes me so much. I've got to know him really well over the years. I get on really well with all his siblings which is why my mum thinks they keep asking. Because I look young they don't mind the age gap.
He says he likes me because of my personality. Before he met me he'd heard only good things from all my family. I am worried that this could be a 'first love' sort of thing for him. Which I think can be really intense but fizzles out once you mature. He refuses to marry anyone else.
How much do looks matter to men? I look young now, but in a few years I may look my age, how will he feel then?
He says that a happy marriage comes from getting on with one another and looks don't matter long term. I know he cares about me a lot. But we are not dating or anything like that.
