I just stumbled upon your channel and the topic you’re discussing is very interesting because different people have different views about it. But for me I say the marriage that has worked is the right marriage. Age, someone social status, all those things cannot be a guarantee thing for functioning relationship to stand. if those in it are not ready to sacrifice themselves to make the relationship work
My long distance husband to be is 16yrs older than I. We are so in love. 39 yrs old and I'm 55 yrs old. He coming over to my country, we are to get married. I felt worried at first. My firdt husband died, he was 31 yrs older than me. So in our culture of the Caribbean, we look at the male should be older than the female to take care of her.
There’s nothing new under the sun, there are countless men whose wives are older than them and they are happily married. Keep praying about it and give it time and fight for the love you both share respectfully
For a man, we believe masculinity is not what is required, rather it’s God’s wisdom, that wisdom helps get the blueprint for how the marriage will run…. If you are spiritually mature and can execute God’s blueprint, you are qualified
It's not universal coz many countries don't find issue of a women older than the guy. But only in Africa. Mostly to those black people specially in Nigeria. Other countries are broad minded
@@This-is-Rose-E You are saying this because you want to be stereotypical. I do not have to waste my time convincing you when you can try it yourself or search Google or TH-cam.
@@jasmineb4787 what do u mean?? That being women who's older than guy is a universal problem?? Maybe in your country or in your husband's country which is in Nigeria. Because let's fact the fact that other countries do not care about age gap.. so many countries that those people there are broad minded. As long as we love the person the respect will always there and marriage will work. Age doesn't matter and it's not big deal. Only in African specially in Nigeria !
I dont understand why in africa especially in nigeria that when a women is older than a guy its already a big issue..coz so many countries don't find it as big deal. African people or nigerian are still not broad minded..
Is it scriptural to work for a boss younger than someone? A master literally should be older than a servant. Sometimes we tend to complicate matters for ourselves and leave the major while focusing on the minor when it comes to marriage but don’t see it as an issue in other areas of life. The qualifications for marriage according to Ephesians is Submission from the part of the woman and Love from the part of the man.
I am sorry but 2 years isnt enough for the age gap conversation. We all went to school with people that were 2 years older and had friends too its not a big deal. If you can't respect a man you are 2 years older you just can't respect men your age.
Marriage is a whole different ball game compared to school. This and several other issues can’t be generalized, what works for you may not work for another.
@bukolaandezekiel4850 that's true school and marriage are not the same thing. However the standard of respect we have in our everyday lives is what we carry into our relationships especially marriage. if you are the kind of woman that doesn't respect men younger than you by as little as 2 years you probably have a general problem with respect towards men. People who are two years apart have so much in common for both men and women, you are in the same generation and grew up on the same things. You would have definitely had more interactions with people 2 years younger than you than with people 6 years older in your lives journey and if from those numerous interactions you couldn't develop respect for young people that's a character flaw imo. So the conversation of how do I respect my husband that is 2 years younger than me is soo unnecessary because 2 years is too little of a gap for there to be any significant differences between men his age and men your age. There is no conversation to be had accord him the same level of respect you would give a man your age. Just my opinion!!!
@@bukolaandezekiel4850, you two are of similar age, there is no age difference between you, you are the same generation, if you were 25 years older, that would be a difference
I too have a boyfriend two years younger than me,,, and he looks very old than me,,coz his huge,,, but i don't know what i can do,,, i looks so young but age
Hi, Yes they are both aware. Thankfully, we have believing parents so it wasn't hard convincing them. but that was not the first issue we raise when they got to know us. They got to know our person first, fall in love with other areas, so it wasn't a big deal when the age issue popped up.
You can choose not to tell them now, but they will eventually still know. Ask God for wisdom on how to go about it. There's no one size fit all kind of answer.
Hello Esther, our parents took it well, though that was not the first thing we projected about ourselves. They got to meet us first and enjoy our personality.
God bless you for sharing, God bless your home
Amen

Do you mean he is younger or older? Your statement is not clar. May God bless you in Jesus Christ's name if it is His will.
😁😁😁I enjoyed it
We are glad you did😊
Thank You So Much 😍
You're welcome 😊
How do you handle family members that oppose the union because of the age disparity?
Yeah please explain this. What was your experience?
@maryafolayan-b1j we shared it in the video
Please my girlfriend is 2 years older than me and the family are on heat right now
But we sincerely love ourselves and we cant do without each other
There’s nothing new under the sun, there are countless men whose wives are older than them and they are happily married. Keep praying about it and give it time and fight for the love you both share respectfully
Please what are the names of Christian couples with older wives?
🥰🥰🥰
😊😊
You see what culture will cause to some people ehn...
Hmmm
Wow
I'm blessed
Thanks
The issue of men marrying older women is universal and not cultural. Some people feel it is masculine for the man to be older in marriage.
For a man, we believe masculinity is not what is required, rather it’s God’s wisdom, that wisdom helps get the blueprint for how the marriage will run…. If you are spiritually mature and can execute God’s blueprint, you are qualified
@@bukolaandezekiel4850 so well said and a big AMEN to that!

We are called to live above our culture.
@@bukolaandezekiel4850 and because of that culture many are not happy..it should be fair
It’s not culture, it’s scriptural too, God created Adam and then he created Eve. God makes no mistake.
Is it scriptural to work for a boss younger than someone? A master literally should be older than a servant.
Sometimes we tend to complicate matters for ourselves and leave the major while focusing on the minor when it comes to marriage but don’t see it as an issue in other areas of life.

@@gideonadele7765 you cannot find in the bible that says it's a sin to marry a woman older than the guy..
God is not judgemental like human being

Hello guys
Here is my question.
Are your both parent aware of the age difference?
How were you able to convince them?
Thank you

I wish to know how your parents reacted to your decisions?
Hello Esther, our parents took it well, though that was not the first thing we projected about ourselves. They got to meet us first and enjoy our personality.
@@bukolaandezekiel4850 Thank you ma. Please can you guys do video on that? I think it will great topic
Thank you for the suggestion 🤍
Too much of a blessing to me
