Re: Do you think 35 is a bit old for a man to marry?
Late yes, but still better than not marrying or delaying it further.
Re: Do you think 35 is a bit old for a man to marry?
Yes, very old. Its okay if someone is in that situation - you have to make the most of it but definitely not what any normal person would plan for.

Is it really very old. That scares me.
Re: Do you think 35 is a bit old for a man to marry?
i don't think its old at all. It depends on the circumstances too to some degree.
besides...guys don't have to worry about their timeframe to have babies :)

It's ancient man. Don your white patched frock and becoming a sufi in the path towards self exploring.

What do you think he's been doing all this time? :D
Re: Do you think 35 is a bit old for a man to marry?
theoretically, no ... and eveyrone on this forum would say NO ... in reality, you gotta find a girl who is willing to marry a 35 year old ... keeep in mind, pakistani girls get married by 23/24. so best of luck find a girl (if the man wants to marry a younger one) who is around ~32 and willing ot marry a 35 year old .. and behold to answer the questions like "why didn't you get married yet"
Re: Do you think 35 is a bit old for a man to marry?
Not everyone on the forum says No - most people outside the forum would say it is OLD. For non-muslims or non-practicing muslims its fine but for a guy to get married (and effectively have thier first proper relationship) at 35 is crazy old.

Re: Do you think 35 is a bit old for a man to marry?
My dad was 35ish when my Mum had me and he doesn't look like my grandad lol.. I know a LOT of people whose dads are 30/35 years older than them and it's considered quite normal..
For a guy to have a child at 30+ is really no big deal at all.. Majority we know here are around 30 when they get married anyway..
Re: Do you think 35 is a bit old for a man to marry?
Men ripen at 35.... I had to live through my husband's 20's to enjoy the 30's ...
I'd be okay with finding him at 30+
Re: Do you think 35 is a bit old for a man to marry?
If I get married at 35 (if my mum lets me get to 35 without marrying that is), it would be crazy to marry a 23/24 year old. I'd be looking for a woman between 32-37. Anyone citing health reasons, please! If you've been looking after yourself by regularly exercising since your teens as well enjoying a diet free of desi ghee and nirala (other then on eid and ramzan) and rich in oily fish and fruit/veg you'll be fine.
Re: Do you think 35 is a bit old for a man to marry?
is its late? perhaps yes
is it hopeless? perhaps no
Re: Do you think 35 is a bit old for a man to marry?
You guys do realize that many religious figures married late? Lest I remind you of this when you insist on growing beards and wearing hijaabs. Let's not insult the memory of our prophets, many of whom married late, and the memory of followers of these prophets who also married late.
It's ironic that people who are muslim think like this.

I am very ignorant in this matter. Can you give some examples?
Re: Do you think 35 is a bit old for a man to marry?
How can you find a good match at the age of 35 ? I think it gets difficult and difficult, specially If you are an oversea pakistani (living abroad).
Re: Do you think 35 is a bit old for a man to marry?
^There are plenty of guys who are studying or very work-oriented who marry at that age.. I know of half a dozen who I'd call good matches like that.. they're in medicine, finance etc.

I guess 35 is too late then.
Re: Do you think 35 is a bit old for a man to marry?
Yes it is!
Re: Do you think 35 is a bit old for a man to marry?
35 is late.If you marry late than you are more likely to get into wrong things.Thats what islam teaches us and also by marrying late you are making it harder for yourself to have babies.
Re: Do you think 35 is a bit old for a man to marry?
What kinda wrong things?
