  1. At age 57, you are probably very set in your ways and getting married would definitely change things, but if your relationship is full of love, respect, trust, communication and you make each other happy, then age won't affect your marriage.

    What matters is the relationship, not the age.


  2. Marry her Jack Dad.

    The question isnt are you to old but will you have enough time to enjoy it you old git.

    My Dad(step) Divorced my mum at 47 and 48 respectivly, both have new partners and both are happier than ever.

    And didn't you know 50 is the new 30!

  3. no. if she wants to and you want to then get married. good tunes, old fiddles etc. good on you both.

  4. I don't think you're  to old to marry.  

  5. Follow your heart on this one and all will be well.......

  6. No it's not , go for it and best wishes to you both.

  7. No of course you're not to old!  Propose right away :)

  8. My aunt was 50 and she married a 57 year old man. She was divorced and he was a widower. They had a wonderful marriage of 30 years until he passed away last year at 87. It is not too old at all. You could very well have 30 or more years together. If you want to marry her, you should go for it.

  9. Your never too old to marry, my nan got married again to a wonderful chap at the grand age of 81 and they are both so content and happy..go for it is all i have to say xxxx

  10. 57 is old enough to know better.

  11. She is keen to marry.... are you? If you are, then geez its a no brainer, you could have 30 more years together.

  12. No, you are definately not too old to marry! You are never too old to marry, as far as i'm concerned there is no age limit. The 2 of you are obviously happy together so what's stopping you? Absolutely nothing! Just remember "age" is only a number, so stop worrying about it & get married & have a happy life together.

  13. h**l no, go for it and be happy.

  14. Age has nothing to do with getting married.  As you are asking this question I wonder if you feel you can really commit to marriage just yet.

    I am 64 and would not think of getting married again but that is only because I had two bad marriages and feel I couldn't trust my own judgement.

    If age is the only thing standing in your way, go for it and I wish you all the luck in the world.

  15. the other guys are right you should go for it and you know what they say,"It's never to late".

  16. No of course not! You have a second chance at happiness, grab it with both hands!

  17. No you guys are old enough to know if there is something there.  Your asking shows your maturity and love for her.

  18. If you both love eachother then of course you should marry her.

    And no way you are too old... Good for you.

  19. dude, marry her!

  20. You only have one life, or so I hear, so why not enjoy it?....you and your to be bride.... be happy...... can i be the bridesmaid:-)

    Get married, you are only 57 years young, that is not old.

    Just wait until you are 99 then maybe, you will be old, it all depends on how old/young u feel inside....I AM YOUNG AND GETTING MARRIED AGAIN, AND I AM 98 TOMORROW....LOL... LOVE  AND HAPPINESS TO YOU BOTH.


  21. In your case age is not a factor, but one things for sure is to make positively certain that this move you make to get married is a definite promise to complete you.  Your at the age now where confusion doesn't need your company and you darn sure are not ready to give up everything you have worked for simply because she is a lovely lady.

    Things can go wrong at any time not saying that they would, but always expect the unexpected.

    Marriage was never meant to be a cash bond, your cashed out.

  22. NEVER TOO OLD...CONGRATS!

  23. Get married soon...Your never to old to tie up anyone but you must be a master knot manipulator.    

  24. No not at all  go for it   .  My dad remarried after mum died  He was 63 then..   he had a second 25th  anniversary   before he passed away.    he was  very happy both times.      

  25. NO SUCH THING  AS YR TOO OLD TO MARRY THATS THE SILLIEST QUESTION IVE HEARD ALL YEAR           GOFORIT!!!!AND  BY THE WAY  IF  57  IS  OLD  THEN YIKES!!!!!IM SCARED I WAS BORN IN 67 AND MOST OF THE TIME I FEEL AND THINK IM STILL  28 LOL  

  26. You are never too old! If you love her, then go for it, and if she loves you then certainly go for it.  

  27. What do you have to lose?  Happiness only passes through our lives once in a while...grab it..goodluck to you both..

  28. No! Get married..

  29. No, my Great Granddad got married at the age of 84 and he's been happily married for 8 years now.

    You are never to old to be in love or married.

  30. h**l no. if you love her and you want to spend the rest of your life with her go for it.  

  31. Of course not! My Dad is getting married this year and he is 58! Go for it!
