Hi,<P>I am a 24 year old man in love with a 33 year old woman. We have known each other since a year and have been dating since 8 months. I would like to know if there is any scientific/biological fact that prevents from a younger man to marry an older woman and is it biologically wrong?<P>Thanks

It's interesting you would concern yourself with the age difference. Do you two love each other? Has there been talk of marriage? <BR>As far as scientifically, I know of no reason why you two couldn't make this work, however I've read biologically, that the female mind matures faster than the male mind, and still I'm curious...why worry about all this if you're compatable and all is going well? Ultimately, you are the one who's got to live with your decision, so make it based on your realtionship with this woman and not on the world's ideals. <BR>I definitely suggest you two get some counseling prior to making any life-changing decisions; marriage, living together, etc.<P>All the above is just my humble opinion...and sound advice. ;-)<BR>Lynn

No scientific or biological comments, but just this: People in their 20's are not ready generally to make lifetime commitments. They are still "finding themselves". They are still trying on philosophies, lifestyles, experiences, for size.<P>That you post this question here, as psychlynn infered, could mean that you aren't ready to make such a decision on your own yet, maybe you ought to stop and think why you are asking for a biological or scientific "out" and whether this means you have doubts yourself about this being a good match for you. <P>If it's not a "match", well, that's not a tragedy. People in their 20's date, to find out who they are suited for for a life mate. <P><p>[This message has been edited by Bellevue (edited December 07, 2000).]
