QuestionQUESTION: a couple weeks ago i face one situation and still wondering what should i do.
here is the situation,there is one lady in my church and we used to go out together for a coffee. after a while our relationship become changed and we both fall in love each other. but the thing i want to be more clear is about age difference. she is older than me (5-7 years).i don't see anything except love right now but I'm wondering is there something terrible going on in the future because of our age gap.
ANSWER: Dear Yonas,
There is nothing wrong with one partner, even a woman, being older than the other. 5 - 7 years is not that much of a difference anyway. Do you know everything about this person? Before you become married, make sure you know everything about her; it will save so much heartache and cost if you become divorced. It is a big, miserable event to divorce and it costs thousands of dollars. It is worth the time to date and enjoy your dating time for a long while ( as long as you can - at least 2 years )
Take care and good luck!

QUESTION: thanks kiya.
what should i know about her?
AnswerDear Yonas,
I was concerned with your first question since you had asked if there was something terrible going on. I felt as if there may be an intuition on your part that something may not be right. I just wanted to make sure you knew all there was to know about her before you asked her hand in marriage. Or to just be aware of the feelings that you are having when you are with her. If your feelings are great or even too good to be true, then she is probably the one for you and you should enjoy this time. If you are having feelings of doubt or that something is missing, off, or not quite right, then take your time and do not get married until these feelings disappear (if they ever do.)
Take care!
Kiya
