Age gap in relationships: What do you believe should be the ideal age gap. A must watch.

Age in relationship depends on the person who wants to be in relationship. 😊

Sometimes people tend to generalise a lot of things. Watching your video, I think you made a lot of sense. An age gap of 10years to 20years is too much for people in the dating pool in my opinion. But looking at it again it may really be matters of personal opinion. 😊

Everyone has good answers. I believe knowing what you want and having directions and vision for your relationship is what matters. Even as a lady, older than a guy, once she is mature and can respect him, then, it's good. My dad is 11 yrs older than my mom but that's a long time and can't be compared to now. But I believe true love and having what it takes to care for your partner are what is major in such relationship.

Hmm, this is a very interesting but controversial topic because there will be a lot of opinions drawn from individual preferences.

Everyone has his or her taste in what they want their relationship to be like. I have come across ladies who claim to only prefer older men because they feel that the older man will pamper them while some ladies will never date a man they are older than seemingly because they feel that they won't get along with the guy.

Then we have the set of people who feel that dating a guy who is on par with them age wise will give them an edge and stop disrespect from the guy and vice versa.

Truth be told, the answer is based on individual preference but for the sake of morality and acceptable societal codes, I can say that the correct age gap should be 8 to ten years.

We all know that age is just a number. A relationship can only thrive when there is love, understanding, tolerance, patience and mutual respect between the partners. Age has nothing to do with it.

So the key focus should not be on the age factor alone. Some cultures in the north allow for a man as old as my grandfather to get married to a very young girl. In fact it is seen as a smart decision in those cultures. With this in view, can you fault them?

No, right? Because it is their belief and culture.

So also the best age gap for a relationship depends on individual preference.

At this point I wish there was a tool on here that allows for the record of Voice notes.

So, for me I think it's a thing of personal preference actually. I have a friend who prefers older men... We are talking about 10 to 15 years older than herself.

And on the other hand there's me, I think the healthy gap would be between 2 to 5 years.

The reason is I feel that's is, when the age gap between you and your lover isn't so wide you are more like friends and you can joke and play with each other. But you see that one that you are older than with over 5 years as a man?

She would probably feel like she's your younger one

And if she's now older than you... Me I can't even do this one sef, she will be like your big sister or sugar mummy.

However, as I said earlier it is very subjective and dependent on individual preferences.

I hope with these few points of mine I've been able to convince and not confuse you that... 😉 You know the rest

o.o so u 5-6 maybe max 7 years?

I think it really depends but one thing for sure if one person is 18+ and the other is under 18 or whatever the age of consent is that should be a nono in my opinion.

As for age gap, I think it depends. For me, I feel as we grow older it doesn't matter as much like maybe someone 50 with someone 65 actually is fine but if you look at it like 18 and 33 then it most cases people would see it kind of weird like sugardaddy o rsomething. anyways it depends on the person and what they can accept but i think as long as the feeling sare there, it's genuine and not for some omtive like getting inheritance etc then all is good. for me, I think my range i slike -5/6 and +2/3. I don't want the girl to be too much older than me.

This particular topic is something that has been discussed by different people, sharing their thoughts and opinions, for me, I feel like age matters, I love my man to be older but then the age gap is what I can't tell, I feel like the age gap doesn't matter but then just be older.

See as Fash has just made everyone come to write plenty.😂

How much is too much? Baba, just have money. Even Ned Nwoko saf marry at his age.

This is an interesting topic with different opinions.

First of all, it's not wrong if a guy dates a younger lady, yeah. It's about the maturity of their mindsets.

It's all about mindset building. I know some people who are married to their partners of the same age, guys younger than their wives with 2 years (oh yes) hahaha, guys older than their wives with 1-5 years and more. They are living happily and supporting each other's dreams.

Everyone has a purpose of going into a relationship and I would suggest 18+ as a starting age if you must. Some people wait until they clock 20 before going into a relationship.

I think 10 years gap should be the limit, especially when the guy doesn't look too old for the lady, I mean some men may be 45 years and look 35 years or 36 years while a lady may be 35 years and would look 25 years. Also, a man of 28 years may look 38 years while a lady of 26 years may look 36 years.

The most important thing is the maturity of their mindsets which will probably lead to a successful relationship.

Hello @fashtioluwa interesting proposal for the dissertation, I would tell you that any answer is correct and valid, because it is very own and personal, subjective of your interior, of your decisions, of your tastes. There are no authors, with this I want to say that here the important thing is the one who makes the decision, it is his life and not the life of others !LUV
