Age difference in marriage

Re: Age difference in marriage

@TwitTwit

I would have never married someone older. My SO is about a month older and grew up within the same era watching similar movies/songs… (irrelevant examples but you get the point). We are pretty much on the same wavelength.
I did get a rista for someone older more stable/ settled but just couldn’t see myself with him. There was nothing wrong with this person but I knew it wasn’t going to work (age being one of the reasons)
And yes things like going out, dinners, same age group friend circle, matter. Its hard to compare a 20-30 year old with say 35-45 and so on. Things/ prioritize change as you get older.

PS: We are big in sports and I wanted my kids to grow up in the same environment. Therefore the reason of having kids early and being with someone closer in age with the same energy levels (I have had friends with older husband’s complain their SO’s don’t run around too much with kids or get tired more easily; I never though this could be a issue but apparently it is:)

I think within + 5 is good. Anything over has to be an exception (My uncle and aunt have a 10 year gap but they get along well because my uncle is an exception to his age)

Disclaimer: There are always exceptions to the rule in both men and women.

Kind of unusual to find a desi couple who are both in sports, mostly they are both in biryanni..lol. I dig where you are coming from, I am very dedicated into sports and my wife kind of did not support the idea so it has been very hard on me.There is a biological age and a physiological age though..I have seen countless ladies where in mere 40s they get challenged with mobility and kind of waddle and have a hard time handling 3 or 4 stairs.
