IS IT OK IF THE BRIDE IS OLDER THAN THE GROOM?

[Guest guest]

Namaskar. Is it okay if the bride is a little older than the guy? What do the

scriptures say? If there is mental compatibility, is it okay? Should a marriage

be rejected on these grounds? Why shouldn't the bride be older than the groom

according to Indian traditions?

Please clear my doubt. Thank you.

Sandhya.

Namaskar Sandhya ji,

 

Usually, as per basic matrimonial compatibility

analysis rules, the bride must be atleast 3-5 years

younger than the male. Besides emotional growth etc.,

one of the reasons is that the life expectancy of the

bride musnt be too much longer, after the demise of

the groom (assuming that death happens in age wise

descending order. In ancient times, the male would

work, and provide shelter for the bride.

 

I will let other members contribute their opinions on

the significance of the rule.

 

However, at the moment, I am interested in the charts

of the bride and groom. Could you kindly provide that

info ? I already have the charts of a few couples,

where in, the bride is elder to the groom. I am

interested in the combos that are usually found when

such alliances happen. Please let me know.

 

Thanks,

Sesha.

Dear Sesha:

 

According to life expectancy....life of females in both eastern and

western worlds is longer than male counterparts. So if we go by

synchronizing death of natives than brides should be elder to grooms

so that they die almost at the same time (of course considering

healthy living and normal death).

 

However we see everything contrary to this, in my case my maternal

grandmother died 25 yrs after my grandfather and my paternal

grandmother is without husband for last 12 yrs. So we see this

disparity and still almost everybody (male) wants a younger female. In

middle eastern countries ...its not very uncommon to see wife to be 10

yrs younger than husbands.

 

But now we see the trend to be changing slowly specially in western

countries were age is not a bar and people wont be surprised if you

marry a woman 4 yrs older than you are, obvious drawbacks is timing of

children cause not all 30+ woman have easy pregnancy.

 

I would say age difference of upto 3 yrs on either side is not a big

issue anymore however with our society standards things still look

like it was in back in time. I am sure it will change cause change is

the name of time.

 

Regards,

 

Bharat

 

P.S: My wife is older than me and so is my best friends wife and we

dont see it as an issue.

In the usa, you will find the opposite practice for the reason of

different life expectancies. In the US, women live longer than men,

so by marrying younger men, they expect companionship for most of

their lives. But I agree with Sesha on emotional compatibility.

Chandrasekharji,

 

I think Narada Purana has most of the rules that are

followed today. I have not personally read this

purana. But, have read some translations here and

there in piecemeal. But, the "rules" I mentioned are

usually learnt by word of mouth. But, the origin must

be from the Narada Purana.

 

Thanks,

Sesha.

Interestingly, the younger bride-older groom marriage trend is

reversing in Japan. The life expectancy for Japanese women is now 85

whereas for men it is 78. In the present situation there are greater

numbers of older women available for marriage compared to those in

the same age or younger. So it is quite common now to find older

women (generally rich) getting married to younger men (sometimes

subordinates).
