…BY 3-4 YEARS!
Anyone in such a relatoonship? How does it work out? I know its Islamically fine but still i can’t see myself comfortable in such a situation. So what advise can i give to a friend in this situation without influencing her wrongly. She is super deserving of a good match which i think this proposal could be for her but she is apprehensive of the age difference and i want to help her make her decision without imposing my views.
So what do u think?
Re: Younger husband
Assalamualaikum mashaAllah…age doesn’t matter if husband is responsible..and age couldn’t do anything if he or she is not responsible in marriage..applicable for both..one of my friend’s husband is mashaAllah five year younger than her…she is one of the most happiest wife Alhamdulilah because the guy is responsible and she says though i am elder but i feel like i am much younger than him..
Re: Younger husband
That’s actually a very valid point and i brought this up with aunty too. She said her husband can gauge better on the maturity of the guy if things proceed further.
On the outlook they say he seems like a balanced guy. And the mother feels that if despite her own apprehensions regarding the age difference, the prospect’s father insisted on meeting then she might as well give it a chance and see how things work.

Keeping an eye here.
Re: Younger husband
Why? 
Re: Younger husband
I have plenty of guy friends that age and are they less wiser, less mature than me. No. I wouldn’t be friends with them if they were. So if you click you click regardless of age and gender.
And by a weird coincidence a couple of guys in my graduating class ended up married at 23. They have kids now. If guys that age are so immature then I better start calling cps asap.
But on the flipside I’ve said no to a younger guy’s proposal because I knew him when he was in diapers (A male cousin of mine had the same objections to a younger cousin of ours so it’s not even a gender thing where the guy needs to be older. It’s just the ickiness of changing from baby bro to hottie yo). I could never treat him as my equal in the way I would as the folks I’ve met as an adult. If she can’t look at the guy without the age thing coming to the forefront then it’s a massive hurdle to leap.
Re: Younger husband
Op, I think your friend will have greater piece of mind if she discusses this fear with the guy. Him and his family are not bothered by the difference if they’re considering this rishta in the first place. But to hear his opinion will put her more at ease I think.
My cousin is 3 years older than her husband and he married her when he was only 20-21…which is pretty young for a guy. And three kids later…they’re still going strong MashaAllah. Their eldest son is -7-18.
I know someone else whose husband is 6 years older than her and they now have a son. They’re a Pakistani Punjabi couple and the guy was neither bothered by her age nor that she was previously divorced.
Re: Younger husband
As long as the guy younger than you is not a minor 
, financially stable, responsible & mature then why not.
Personally I wouldn’t marry a guy who is younger than me, don’t want to look like his aunty & the odd feeling that comes with this.
Re: Younger husband
Mental compatibility. If they both feel right, I don’t see a problem. But if there’s any icky factor or the guy immature. (The maturity doesn’t come with age, by the way), then don’t accept. If your friend likes the guy as a person and can ignore the fact that he’s younger age then she should accept but if his age is bothering her a lot, making her uncomfortable and she can’t get over it and get rid of the feeling then she should avoid.
Re: Younger husband
A guy 10 years younger than me proposed to me. Filthy rich, pretending to be a man but too immature in his way of dealing with things. Like how guys behave in school/high school during adolescence. So such marriages are usually disastrous. If she can notice such immaturity in the guy’s behaviour then avoid. Otherwise, I don’t see a problem.

Re: Younger husband
Shouldnt we merge the “old wife” and “younger husband” threads? Hard to toggle b/w these two… both are catchy 
Re: Younger husband
I know two couples where the wife is actually 10 years older…but I had NO idea until the ladies told me themselves. I couldn’t tell…they looked the same age.
I think it also had to do with their attitudes…age was just a number and nothing more between them. It was nothing important. THey still had their own roles and knew them well.
Re: Younger husband
Lolz! this is what it is…if i cnt see myself doing it how can i suggest the same to her?! But yet i feel its a good match for her. So confusing.
No she said they wud look the same age.

This is a family friendly place, please.

Re: Younger husband
What is that strange script?
Re: Younger husband
I’m a bit late to comment.. But my husband is younger than me..
By two years. At first I thought it was a huge deal.. I was reluctant to be with him or to marry him. But I realised how is just a number.. In our relationship it doesn’t matter at all. So go for it. Age is just a number.
Re: Younger husband
Its very funny cause he occasionally tell me what a baby I am..and how he is always handling stuff. I never feel older. He’s so much more mature composed and responsible. So depends on the age.
Re: Younger husband
age doesnt matter. at the end of the day theya re all miserable
