WHAT HAS LOVE GOT TO DO WITH AGE?

Yesterday, the Governor of Edo State exchanged vows with the beautiful Lara Forte and the most people were shouting 'gold digger' upandan. Issorai..
Their argument was that, didn’t she find a young man her age to marry, and he his own age. Many fail to understand that most men her age are either married or chasing 18 year old girls. Even women in the governor's age bracket are married or widowed and most widows around here think the world will not forgive them for daring to find love again. So please how are they not perfect for each other? 
Who even sets the standard for where you are supposed to find love?! If someone says that financial security is key if she must be your better half, how is she different from someone who wants to marry because the sex is good?!
So if I marry my agemate, I am the ultimate martyr of true love?! 
Another argument was that he wasn't cute enough. Baba Osho, is no GQ model but he is not onions to my eyes. He dey alright.  If your good looks will not put food on the table, to hell with it.
Two adults think they can spend the rest of their lives together, will it kill you to just be happy for them and stop scheming for motive?!
If you say money finishes, I will also say love turns sour. If we look at cases of domestic violence,most of those people married for 'love'. If she is in for the money, you think he is not a smart man to figure it out?!
We all have our reasons for getting married,it could either be for love, companionship,financial security, good sex, friendship, good conversation whatever your reason maybe for choosing your better half as long as you can live with it, I congratulate you.
For those of you hating, have you had your lunch today?!
So let's discuss: if an older man marries a younger man and vice versa, kini big deal?!  Can you do it or not?!
