When does a bride become an old maid?

To answer this question we need to talk about life and culture of women in Ukraine. As usual women would like to create a family and to have children, they are ready for this much more earlier than the men there. The Ukrainian men don’t think about the family life and children at the age when the women do. That’s why single ladies look for the older men who are ready to build strong family relationships.

Now about the age. An average 22-23 years old lady starts to think about the family and she is in the active search. Her relatives and friends ask all the time if she is dating to somebody. If she doesn’t, they try to hurry her up. If she dates, then there is the next question when the wedding will be. It is normal for women here to get married under 30 and a lot of women are in a hurry because they don’t want to be an old maid.

But it is very important to understand that men older that 50 or 60 have very little chance to get married to 18 years old lady. It’s better to use filters and check the ladies’ profiles who are in their thirties or forties. All the ladies look great and they are attractive. To be realistic is a very important thing if you are serious in your search.

However, there are some situations when the ladies won’t be afraid by the big age gap. As usual, when a man is very rich or famous but it is not common. When you are looking for a life partner it’s better to care about acceptable age difference.

Don’t forget that Ukrainian ladies over 25 are more serious. By this age some of them have already been married and have a child as well.

If you decide to find a lady and to create a family with extremely big age difference, think carefully about the future problems. There is no doubt that right now you are full of energy and you feel young and love gives you wings. But later the couple may have problems when you have different aims, goal and lifestyles.
