Ever dated someone older than you with 10years and above?
Maturity in a relationship isn't always about age but your mental and emotional growth, your dedication and commitment to the relationship will make it bloom. Keep this in mind if you're wishing to enter a healthy relationship.
@AnnieGabby Although this can be true and commitment and maturity can sometimes fill the gap, I also believe that age gap relationship can foster dynamics that aren't always healthy. There was a very interesting post in the Women's Issues subcommunity a while ago, I'll have it here:
@Aayla Good link! Relationships I have seen with friends, a large age gap when someone is in their 20s, especially young 20s can be a concerning indicator. If I knew someone in their 40s or older who decided to be in a relationship with someone 10 years older I wouldn't have the same level of concern.
According to my current research, women get old faster than men and most wives are mistaken to be older than their husbands who is a little bit older than them. This is because most of them tend to mature faster than their age. That is why most Ladies are advised to marry men who are very matured.
@AnnieGabby What do you mean by old, and what research shows this? On average, women tend to live longer than men.
"That is why most Ladies are advised to marry men who are very matured."
That's not something I was ever advised. Avoiding dating someone who is immature? Sure. I was always advised to stick with peers who were responsible.
