Manas seems to be a great guy. Even I am starting to like him a lot...he looks very real, confident & protective. But as rakhi said their age difference is somehow interrupting her from choosing manas...but do YOU think age difference can be a barrier in marriage life? Why or why not?

Rakhi I think is 28. From personal experience, I would say that I never recommend a woman to marry a man who is younger to her. I still believe what many say that men take longer to matrue than women. Often, it's not until they are in their later 20's or early 30's that they truly understand what responsibility is. Rakhi is 6 years older than him, and with at least 3 more years of maturity added (due to timing of puberty, etc for boys and girls), Rakhi has 9 or ten years totally over him. They are at different stages of their life - she has seen life, and he is just starting his.

whenever I give advice to friends and family, I tell them to search for a boy who is 4 or 5 years elder and this will make for a better match. So, all the dulhas who are below her age should not be in the running ... unfortunately, this means that Luv cannot be considered because he is 26. Elesh is at least the same age as Rakhi.

No i dont believe that age difference is gonna effetc their maariage! i think Manas deserves her the most he si a true gentleman and he is soo true he does eveyrhting from hes heart and he is not at all fake!

example if aishwarya can get married to Abhishek then why not rakhi to Manas! aish is also older then abhi some years and they are happy together i think manas and rakhi well be really happy together too!

can't say... as we look at the issues with indian society.. sachin tendulkar got a good relationship.. though age his wife is elder to him 5 years (not 15 mentioned by rakhi).... now ash and abi..can't say since it is only 2 years.. but saif ali's relationship with amrita singh (13 years difference) was a flop.. but then again woman who are senior to man may be able to handle them since woman are more matured and will be able to adjust to them.. this is what i feel.. but not sure..

Defintely it will make a difference, my ex was 10 months younger, i wouldnt have married him if i knew he was younger, needless to say he was immature and selfish and it didnt work out.

Rakhi is 28 years old, and Manas disclosed that he's 22. I personally do feel that as some point the age difference between the two could create a problem just because boys mature slower than girls. Unless if Rakhi is willing to adjust herself and change herself to match him, I don't think it will work. A woman usually does have to adjust more that the guy in marriage and since he's younger, even more so.

It's because they are both at different stages in their life. Rakhi is at the point where she wants to settle down and start a family, whereas Manas is just starting his life and career. I think Rakhi will have to understand and adjust to the fact that he is at a different point in his life. Marriage may not be his top priority right now. People only mature with time, so she cannot expect him to meet her at her level.

I personally really like Manas, and I see a genuineness in him love for Rakhi. I think he'd make a great husband for her, but I'm not sure if now is the right time for him. I think Manas is more deserving of Rakhi than the others, but the age gap is concern for me too!

Maybe Rakhi will see past their age difference and try and work things out? 😃
