Is it bad for a woman to get married to a man who is 3 yrs younger than her?

Question

I am a born again Christian and i wanna know if im wrong in doin so.

Answer 1

There is nothing wrong with him being 3 years younger than you.  

Are truly in love and ready to make a commitment to spend the rest of your lives together till death do you part?  That's whats important, not 3 years younger.  

Answer 2

My wife is 4 years older than me.  I rarely think about it.  I'm a Christian and so is my wife.  There is nothing in Christian teaching that says anything against this that I know of.  Don't let this small age difference affect your relationship.

Answer 3

3 years apart isn't a bid deal.  20 years apart would be a little weird.

Answer 4

Your joking? I have been married 10 years and my wife is 4 years older than me.

Answer 5

it is not bad provided he loves you and both have good understandings

Answer 6

Marriage is about compatibility & not about the age of your spouse. If you feel comfortable about getting married to a person a few years older to you, It just does not matter.

Love him as much as he does to you.

Answer 7

Nope.  Nothing wrong with that.  I know plenty of good Christian people who have an age difference.  As a matter of fact, I am four years older than my husband.

But, it might be frowned upon if you are 19 and he's 16.  Nothing wrong if you are in your 20's or older.

Best Wishes.

Answer 8

Marriage is all about the understanding and love between the couple. So don't thing about the age.

Answer 9

No cause age is nothing but a number. Im getting ready for marriage with someone that is two years younger than me...

Answer 10

I really doubt God cares about that at all.  

Answer 11

Regardless of any religion, 3 years is nothing, especially when you get older. It's more important that the two people concerned are compatible, share interests and genuinely love each other.

Age is just a number & people mature at different ages/levels, so never let a small thing like this cast any doubts for you.

Answer 12

~I have never heard of something like this before. I doubt that its a big deal if you marry someone who is younger than you by three years. As long as you are happy and in love, im sure god would accept it. ~

Answer 13

It's not the best arrangement, but it could work.  

Answer 14

Absolutly not!!  

Answer 15

As of my acknowledgement i would say this is not good..

Itc coz A husband plays a dominant role in the family so the husband has to b respected...

It depends upon ppl ..

Answer 16

I dont know  about what religions allow and wat disallow but i personaly feel  even if you are 10 years elder  it shouldnt make any difference.. as long as your happy and your love is true..  But to be on a practical side .. just see through it that the maturity level btw ull both  matches..if it does .. You go girl..

Answer 17

3 years is nothing, now if it was 10 or 20 you should worry. Unless your 18 to 21 and he's 16  or younger.

Answer 18

I don't think so..when there is love age caste color..they do not matter. comeon, be some moderate yaar, marry him if he loves you and you love him

Answer 19

NOT BAD.IF YOU HAVE FULLY CONSIDERED ALL OTHER IMPORTANT FACTORS FOR MARRIAGE AND ARE SATISFIED THEN GO AHEAD.

Answer 20

What is a born again christian?  I mean once you believe in God you always do right?  Must be from the south, anyway, three yrs is absolutely nothing of an age difference in age.

Answer 21

Marriages are made in heaven,only celebrated on the earth. so nothing is wrong in heavenly things.

go ahead......

Answer 22

No.

Age, caste or religion should not influence your decision if you are in true love.

If you think you are really in love with the person, just go ahead. God will be with you.

Answer 23

No way. you can marry whoever you want, if you love them. Age should not stop you.

Answer 24

WHAT DO U MEAN BY "BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN' IN THE FIRST PLACE??? LOOK U ARE A CHRISTIAN THAT'S ALL THERE IS NO " BORN AGAIN" CHRISTIAN OK!!!!

WHAT IS SO WRONG IN LOVING SOMEONE THAT IS YOUNGER OR OLDER THAN U??? WHY ARE U SO BOTHERED ABOUT SOCIETY FOR???

WHY ARE U AFRAID THAT GOD WILL NOT ACCEPT YOUR LOVE???

LOOK LIVE IN THE PRESENT OK NOT PAST OK!!!!

DO WHAT THE h**l U WANT OK & QUIT WORRYING ABOUT OTHERS!!!

Answer 25

Hello

It's never a question of age if you and your partner share a special bonding which does not bring a factor like age to be important, you must be aware of leading ladies in hollywood dating and marrying guys much younger to them.

My wife is 3 years elder to me and believe me it's never a problem for us, only ensure you talk out all things you have in your head with your partner before you get into a marriage, important things like handling finance, sexual preferences, raising children, if both of you belong to different caste, how well are you going to deal with social commitments and more.

Also the age factor comes into play when you plan to conceive a baby since for women post 30 years of age pregnancy tends to be bit difficult, we had our baby on 31st July this year, my wife is 29 and i'm 26 right now, we planned our baby in a way where i was mentally prepared to be a father and to make sure my wife did not undergo too much complications to deliver

Answer 26

The question is does this person make you happy do they have good morals  do they treat  you with respect and kindness  Are you  happy and proud to be  with this person If you have answered yes to these questions no problem God puts the right people in our lives  when we least expect it  

Answer 27

If you two love each other , then do not worry about age . If it does not bother either of you then go for it as what anyone else says is moot . You are marrying each other not because of age , but because of Love and where there is love , then no one should have any thing to say about it . Good Luck and God bless  

Answer 28

Three years age difference is nothing at all -- trust me.  My husband is 5 years older than me, and I know some married couples with a 10 year ago difference.  My mother in law is 14 years older than my father in law.

You're not wrong.  Marry the man you love and the man you can keep your vows with for the rest of your life -- that's what matters.

Answer 29

My husband is exactly 3 years younger than me..

The preacher blessed our marriage,

God blessed us with 2 beautiful children and 15 years of a happy life together so far.

Answer 30

What does born again christian have to do with your question? NO theres nothing wrong with it.  Why do some people always have to put religion into everything??

Answer 31

There is nothing wrong in that.
