I think the question you want to ask yourself and your girlfriend is if what you feel for each is for real, afterall, getting married is a serious matter I am sure you know that. There is a saying that 'age doesn't matter', I think it only matters if you let it. I've heard of many married couple of big age gap that seem to have worked and still working, I might add especially between Filipinas and foreigners. Perhaps because most of the older guys who married younger women in the Phils are looking for someone who will be contented and happy to be loved and to love in return. I think if you will agree with me guys, that your Filipina wives are loyal, faithfull, funny and contented as long as treated rightly and fairly.
