Will a marriage between a 41 years old male and a 24 years old girl work ?

Question

I am a 41 years old very handsome, attractive, very healthy and good looking divorced male. In fact, due to my genes and the strict exercise and diet regime I follow, I look no older than 30. No one is able to tell my real age (and I mean it) In terms of physical strength & stamina too, I can give persons 10 years younger than me a tough competition. I am in love with a 24 years old girl who too is in love with me. We are planning to get married soon. But sometimes I wonder whether our marriage will be successful inspite of the huge age gap? Will there be any sexual incompatibility in the future. We have been having very good & fulfilling sex for the past 3-4 years. Please help me make up my mind. I once again repeat that we both love each other seriously.

Answer 1

If a couple are very much in love and deeply committed to a relationship, I feel that age does not matter.
I speak from experience as I am in a similar situation.
My husband and I get on marvelously and our age has never been a problem. It may be a problem for others but not for us.
Anyway, it sounds as though you are both very much in love and age shouldn't be a barrier.
It is a good thing that you are fit and healthy, but try not to allow this to dominate the relationship.
Both of you will change physically as you get older,but,hopefully your compatability and the strong love you have for one another be enough "cement" in the relationship to keep you together.
I don't really think your age gap is that bad, anyway.
She sounds as though she is mature enough to be with you.

Remember, there are never any guarantees in love or marriage. If you are committed to each other and love to see each other happy then you will have a good, long lasting marriage.
If the relationship is based purely on sex, then I would be concerned.
Before you "pop" the question, maybe get some pre-maritial counselling.
In the country where I live, this is now law and it is a really good thing.
The Minister that married us was very surprised how compatabile
we were despite our age difference and different background.
I wish you well : )

Answer 3

let me just ask you this, what has age really have to do with it.
If two people really love each other, age difference should have nothing to do with it. I know many who have married with age difference and they seem to have a great realationship with each other and great marriage. Never count on sex problems coming up. This can happen no matter the age.
I know of a young man in the prime of his life, about your age now that had to have prostrate removed and no longer is sexually active because or all that was wrong. So, go for it man.
You two can have a grate live together. Why worry over something that may never happen . Live and enjoy each other one day at a time. Life is tidran short. Good luck and marry the gal.

The 17 year span may seem like a big deal now, in your ages when you get older, it won't seem so far apart. As far as the marriage working, it depends on how things work out in the marriage. You can't just take age into consideration. What about interests and things like that? Do both of you like the same types of foods? music? There are other factors that you have to weigh. I hope things work out okay. Just keep in mind that I'll be 43 on Nov. 2 and still haven't met ms right.

Answer 5

I feel if you are secure with her being so much younger. If you have no doubts she'll ever leave you for a younger man. Then go for it.
I dated an older man. There was big differences. He was almost 50, where as in my mind I stopped at 27. There was some strange gaps. Taste in music (I like today's pop, he likes old school rock and roll), I dress hip and he wears kind of dated clothes. He was very set in his ways, where I was spontaneous.
I realized the differences were not insurmountable. That we compromised. He discovered new things as did I. So I say phooey to the age difference. Relationships are built on what you have in common and your differences. If age is your only minor difference and you love one another. I say continue on the path your on. Good for you.

Answer 6

All I can say is that age doesn't really matter!
It all depends on how compatible you are!
People can be older or younger by numbers, but what matters is if you "CLICK".
There are mature people and immature people, think about it..........................

Just don't RUSH into marriage, is my advice.

You love each other, there is no GAP, don't worry.

I care about someone who is 10 years younger than I!

We're Friends!

Everyone has to go at their own pace, and marriage is a choice only you and your girl can make in time!

I DO NOT believe in ANY age Gap!

The only gap is if couples make it one!

Good luck and stay happy!

Answer 7

Are you worried about the sex or the life agenda? Are you worried that in 5 years she's gonna fall for some one else because her life is going to be longer with someone else? Sex is sex. If you love eachother seriously and you plan on a future together then go ahead. Just make sure she knows what it means to be in it for the long run!!!

Answer 9

If you both really love each other then I do not think that the are will make a difference ,but one thing is sure you must tell the girl the naked truth before entering in to the contract of marriage.I do not think that you have told the fact of your age to the girl.

Answer 10

I have a friend who is 25 and dating a man who is 41. She is mad about him and he about her. There is no question about age or whether or not their relationship will work. The reason? Love doesn't see age, height, weight, race or anything other than what's in your heart. If you are in love with this woman, and she with you, don't let age come between you.
