Reply To: The Age Gap and the Musical Chairs of Shidduchim👴👶🏻🎶💺💺

Lilmod: The age gap issue isn’t the only reason anyone who is older and unmarried isn’t married. There are certainly other reasons some older boys and girls aren’t married too. And whether the age gap is the #1, #2 or #3 reason for older girls bring unmarried is also debatable. But the age gap mathematically guarantees that it is impossible for every girl to get married.

Therefore it is prudent (regardless whether it’s the main reason or secondary to other reasons) to take corrective action so that girls aren’t unwillingly swallowed up by the age gap effect denying them the ability to marry even when there would’ve otherwise been no other reason stopping them from marrying.
