Interesting thoughts there Maya and Rutu. I used to concur with these thoughts at some point, but no more.
Ash married Abhi for crying out loud ๐ญ. Maya, I wish you were her best friend ๐.
My thoughts in past few years are based on watching two fabulous marriages among co-workers, where there's substantial reverse age-difference.
I agree that maturity plays a vital role in any successful marriage / relationship. However, some men though older than their wives make immature decisions and cause their families anguish. I also believe that after 30, there is only so much one can actually grow spiritually / maturity-wise. So is it really so bad for a 40 year old woman to be attracted to a 30 year old if he is a matured guy? Perhaps, perhaps not. Unless the guy is self-assured and matured, would he dabble into cougars for anything serious?
As regards Dil Chahta Hai, I would probably give Dimple a chance if she did not have a young daughter. Motherhood is the best blessing and a tough responsibility. I am glad she did not mess that up by controling herself.
Since some men never grow up and neither do some women, I stopped associating age and maturity, hence this post. still have to see CK ๐.
