I’m 24 and My Husband Is 85 — We Want to Start a Family
New York Post ^ | February 2, 2023 | Andrew Court

Posted on 02/02/2023 1:27:28 PM PST by nickcarraway

A Mississippi woman who married a man 61 years her senior says she’s ready to start a family with her new husband — despite the fact he’s a decade older than her own grandpa. Miracle Pogue, 24, met hubby Charles, 85, while working at a laundromat in Starkville in 2019, with the pair forming a friendship that turned romantic a year later.

SNIP

Miracle told Kennedy News of the moment she learned about her husband’s advanced age, saying: “I found out in conversation when we asked each other our date of birth and he said he was born in 1937.”

“I never even placed his age, we just wanted to see how it went. I don’t care if he’s 100 or 55, I like him for him. I thought he was maybe 60 or 70 because he looks so good,” she added. “He’s always up and active.”

If two people are adults, I leave their life choices to them.

I was in Manila, I think in 2003. I met a 78 year old retired Navy guy, with a 25 year old wife. He told me he was trying to get her pregnant.
I remember the comedian Arte Shaw put on a skit. He was old and had a very young wife. He is before the judge and he asks the judge if the judge wants him to tell him how he can do it? The judge says no, I want you to tell me how I can do it. 🤗🤪😜

Is this worse than her making a child out of wedlock with a thug on a one-night-stand and living off welfare?

75% of black children are born to unwed mothers.

Odds are this is the reason they married. He wanted a child; she wanted a child. He’ll leave all of his money and resources to her to raise the child. He’ll get to see his child, spend time with it, and die knowing he left some kind of legacy.

Really, not a bad deal for either of them.

I’m guessing he has no heirs..and she is heir apparent. It really amounts to fraud.

If they have a child together it won't be fraud.

If he's 85 and has no children, he's probably jumping at his last chance to have a child.

He gets a child and she gets his money when he dies. Not really a bad deal for either person.

Back in my teens and early 20s I had a friend my age whose 82 year old grandfather was married to a 29 year old and they had a newborn baby.

It was kind of odd when my 20 year old friend introduced me to his 6 month old uncle.

At the age of 85, he can do whatever the hell he wants.

Who are we to judge?

At my age, I'll even settle for a 75 year old hot babe. Well, not really.......

I recently turned 60 years old, my grandfathers were born in the mid 1870s. My grandmothers born in the mid 1880s. My Dad was born in 1920, served in WW2. My Mom in 1926. Both parents were born near the end of their big Italian families. I also was born near the end of my big Italian family.

So I have 1875 thru 1880, the 1920s and then 1963.

I must say I never got to meet any of my grandparents, they all died before I was born. I always wished I could have known them...

In May, I will become a first time father at the age of 47 - I often have fears about doing this at such an advanced age at least I will likely see my son age into early adulthood. Ultimately it is up the couple - this gentleman will be lucky to see his child get out of diapers but he is still helping to bring life into the world.

Reminds me of a joke about a May/December couple like them. Told their Doc they wanted to start a family. Doc handed the old guy a small bottle and said to bring him a semen sample.

Two weeks later they come back with the bottle still empty. Doc snickers up his sleeve and asks why. The old guy sez, “I tried it with my right hand; I tried it with my left hand. She tried it with her teeth in; and she tried it with her teeth out. We can’t get the cap off of that stupid bottle!
