My age gap with my last foreign wife was 5 years, it was a good age gap, I meet her when I was 24 and she was 19, that was 2 decades ago and we had 12 years together.
Being divorced going on to 7 years now and experiencing 2 other relationships, I am of the opinion with marriage and relationships..nothing lasts forever..enjoy it while it lasts including the sex!
I have had a relationship with an age gap of 13 years between my self and the girl ( my Dad is also 13 years older than my step-mum and been married 35 years )..such age gaps can sometimes work but the greater the age gap between you and the girl, less likely it will last.
I feel uncomfortable with an age gap of 15 years, I think its too much, I feel an age gap of ten years or less would be optimum but it also depends on the blending and interaction of personalities, if two, a man and a woman can live together.
So many factors in a relationship.
Maybe Monada is fiery because is some past relationship (s) men have treated her bad..yes men can be arseholes and have terrible habits such as excessive drinking or gambling or being a lazy bum that would drive any woman to despair and make them explode in anger.
it depends upon the level of inner development of each individual person, experience and overcamed borders.
In my case there was time when I couldn't stand age difference more then 5 years. Now I find that age difference is not an issue anymore. Among people of 50+ I feel myself on level enough to absorb information, actions and situation with underlayers and give it back on certain level too.
actually I think it's important to search not for age difference, but for level.
Smbdy in 50 can be much low then another in 30. or smbdy at 40 much higher then another at his 60.
ive got a 8 year difference in my marriage..I find however from the Ukranian women I have met ,more maturity than women I have met a home. A harder life maybe? More intelligence when it comes to alcohol and very smart when it comes to budgeting with money etc.
There are many factors that make or break a relationship with our femmes such as:
1. spoilt and bratish behaviour, poor tantrum control
2. Irritating behaviours eg my ex wife had a way of really getting under my skin and pissing me off, something chronic
3. Stubborness and arrogance
4. Sense of humour and knowing where to draw the line as far as jokes and smart arse comments go.
5. Being able to take and give cheek.
6. Trying to be a know all
7. Trying to usurp power from the man and wanting to control him all the time
8.Being able to hang shit on each other when either mucks up..hanging shit is the Australian slang that means making fun and criticising other peoples mistakes or faults or screw ups
and the list goes on and Monada, can a Ukrainian woman tolerate her man "hanging shit" on her without blowing her stack or going to a divorce settlement?
E.G when I hang shit on my girl friend, she sticks her two fingers up at me like "up yours!" and I just brush it off and move on as normal, no harm done!
