Nigerian Nollywood actor and model Emmanuel Ikubese has shared his thought on love and why he cannot marry a lady that is older than him even after he declared that love is not about age.
Some men prefers to marry and date a woman that is older than them while some cannot do that saying the lady will never respect them because the man is younger to her.
According to Emmanuel, he respects the opinion of people but he said he cannot do such that the highest he can do is take a woman that he is older than with at least 2-3 years.
When asked by an interviewer “Tell us why you cannot date or marry an older woman?”
He said;
“I respect people’s choice and opinion. I don’t think love is about age, as long as two people understand themselves, love each other and willing to be together; age shouldn’t be an obstacle. Once there’s love, respect and communication, then they are good to go. But personally, I don’t think I can do it. Maybe someone that I am older than with 2-3 years, that’s the much i can do. I’m not against those that marry younger lover; that’s women or men that date older women. It’s all about choice after all.” Emmanuel said.
