Problems Faced

#1. The feeling of insecurity

If the woman is older to her husband, the fear of losing him to a younger, attractive and more energetic woman can seep in any time.

#2. The social pressure

The Indian social set up is such that it looks down upon any relation that does not follow the set pattern of marriage where an older guy marries a younger woman. The pressure and scrutiny of family members and the society can be exhausting which may in turn affect your relation.

#4. Difference in expectations

Women tend to mature faster than men. It is because of this reason that generally, marriages take place between younger women and older men so that difference of opinions can be limited and the men are mature enough to carry forward the relation. In the case of a reverse age gap, everything may seem to be going perfectly but differences in expectations can arrive over a period of time.

Solutions

#1. Don’t fear he will cheat

Have faith in your partner. Don’t let insecurities and jealousies ruin your marriage. Have faith in yourself too and believe the fact that you are as confident, beautiful and lively as the women of his age group. Trust him and have faith in your relationship. Why would he feel the need to cheat when he has a wife as wonderful as you?

#2. Respect one another

#3. Give space

You both may be having different friend’s circles. Socialise together but also give each other the space to hang out alone with them. Personal space allows a relation to grow.

#4. Lesser your expectations

Keep your expectations simple and real. Don’t over judge. Live and let live is the policy you both should follow. Don’t expect your partner to change themselves or their social circle for your sake.

#5. Ignore what people have to say

People always want something to talk about. Let them enjoy their dose of gossip without letting it affect you. Instead, concentrate on making your relationship a happy one. Prove them wrong by showing them your love.

#6. Be thankful

And in the end, cherish the relation you have got in hand. Be thankful to God for giving you what you wanted. Love each other, respect each other and be there for one another in good, bad and all times.
