What do you think of a 22 year old man wanting to marry a 49 year old woman?

Question

She has already been married and divorced twice!

Answer 1

I wish them the best, and hope they will bring happiness to each other*.... Age is no barrier where love exists between two people*...Only in other peoples minds*....

Answer 2

The 22 year old "man" is just going through a curious stage. I speak from experience. I had a 23 year old interested in me when I was about 47. He was just about to get engaged to the "girl of his dreams". BUT, he wanted me. (he had a "thing" for older women) I was able to prove to him, that he really didn't know what he wanted. He gawked at every female that walked by. He married the "girl of his dreams" and they divorced a year later. The 49 year old woman is old enough to keep this thing in perspective. Have fun and play with it...but don't marry it. She's already gone through 2...you don't want to be the 3rd.

Answer 3

It does not make sense to marry someone who is divorced if you are also not divorced. It's just not equal or fair.

Stear clear of this unless you want to promote the idea that
divorce is some kind of marital ideal state. There was a time when people thought divorce was evil. It is better to make the best choices you can possibly make. Marrying a divorced person is not the best choice for someone who has never married.

Don't expect someone over 40 to be able to have children.

Answer 4

52% of all marriages end in divorce. The woman at that age should be mature enough to know whether the guy is truly in love or just wants a piece of ***. She's been divorced twice so there really is no excuse if it doesn't work out the 3rd time.

Answer 5

I think that a 22 year old man probably doesn't know himself well enough to be marrying anyone. The age difference doesn't concern me that much, but one of them will probably be embarrassed by the other for age differences before long. I would be concerned that they have a hard time incorporating their social lives with the other's. It is proabably the friends that will feel the weirdness not the couple themselves (at least not while the relationship is still new).

Answer 6

Nothing wrong with it. I think woohoo for the 49 year old. You go girl!!! No seriously, my son-in-law is 8 years younger than my daughter (who was divorced and had 3 kids), and they have a very successful marriage. He was 21 when they got married. Actually, he is more mature than any of the other guys my daughter went with. I say, go for it.

Answer 7

As long as you both truly love each other, then age doesn't matter. I personally have been divorced 3x, and each time, I thought I was in love, but that person changed. I am currently very much in love with my girlfriend and am going to propose in a few weeks. She has never been married and is 7 years younger than me. I can tell you that I am in-love with her and the reason for my previous divorces were not related to age. You should do it, if you both love each other.

Answer 8

I think that if you are inlove then what does age matter but my question would be what were her past circumstances with her other 2 marriages? Did she just happen to marry the wrong guys? or is she unstable herself? Is she trustworthy and honest? Or is she mentally or emotionally unbalanced? These are questions you may want to find out before marrying her. Good Luck

Answer 9

I would approach anyone who has been married and divorced twice with great caution, regardless of age.

Answer 10

WoW!,

She must now some REALLY, REALLY good tricks.

Sounds like she's working on divorce #3 if they go through with it.
