If they are happy and haven't hurt anyone in the process (like a broken family because of an adulteress relationship), that's all that matters!

There is nothing wrong with marrying a younger man. I have always dated younger men. One guy who lived with me was only 33 and I was 52, my other boyfriend was 8 years younger than me. They could always make me feel good about myself. I am now married to a man who is 2 years younger than me. The age does not make a difference to us. Age is just a number so do whatever makes you happy.

I don't see any problem as long as he's not young enough to be the age of her son. I don't agree with a man marrying a woman too young either. I believe people should stay within their own generation to a point otherwise they couldn't have much more in common than a sexual attraction and that's not the main reason two people should get married.

If a man can marry a younger woman they why not the opposite? If the two of them are in love and want to get married, all the power to them!

I married a man 8 years younger than me. We had a great marriage, until he started getting tired of being in a ready made family. he left me....is now dating a woman younger than him. I ache from it. I thought I finally found true love. I will NEVER do it again. Some couples make it work. Mine failed. You never know. I dont' look down on those who do it, but I won't do it ever again.

Honey, I married a much younger man....18 years younger....and he is the most childish and selfish man I have ever met. We are now splitting up and even tho it is breaking my heart, I know it is the best thing for me. Think long and hard about your decision.

I don't see why not. Of course he has to be legal and all that but people find love often in places they never imagined. And everyone is different. My husband is two years younger than me and he's more of a man than anyone I've ever dealt with who was my age or older. Follow your heart.......and the laws of the land of course! GOD BLESS!

That's a very general question...how much younger? My 2nd husband was 2 yrs younger than me (he was 28)...that age difference wasn't an issue...
...10 yrs or more (in either direction) starts to increase the chance that maturity levels will differ, life experiences, goals/amibitions, where they are in life, etc and all that can provide challenges that often don't exist (or exist to the same extent) for people who are closer in age...

I don't see anything wrong with it up to a point. Men usually die before their wives (sad but true) My Mother married a man 12 years younger than her and they were very happy. anything over 15 years would be a bit chancy, but you never know!

I will never be one of those women, unless I will be willing go bankrupt on plastic surgeons, spas, and anti-aging creams. But that's just me. I have seen many women that married younger guys and are doing fine.

It can work. My brother married a woman 14 years older than him. They have been married for 13 happy years!
