A 37-year-old lady has come online to share her fear following her relationship with a 25-year-old man.

According to the lady the twenty five year old man is everything she want in a man; he is doing well and also Godly. They both love each other and have agreed to proceed on a wedding plan and all. She had even prayed about it, and is certain that they are meant to be. But knowing what an African marriage entails she and the man are scared to approach his mom to make their intentions known, “Twelve years difference is a whole lot in Africa”, she added.

She is ready to settle down with this man, as age is just but a number to her. But she can’t help but to f3ar how his mother  would see her. This has weighed on her that she develops cold feet each time they talk about making the relationship formal to his family. “How do I do this? Should I be battle ready?”, she asked.

Some X-users have shared their takes on the matter:

@sir_dct Let me be honest for a second. The cold feet aren’t about the age gap. They’re about seeking external validation for a decision that only needs internal conviction. If you’re both ready, walk in with peace, not defence. People accept what you present with confidence. They attack what you present with apology.
@Queeneth01olx Baby, the fear you feel is valid. But here’s what I know. A man who loves you will lead that conversation with his family, not hide behind your anxiety. If he’s as godly as you say, let him go before you. You should be walking into that home as a queen, not a defendant.
