So they solemnized their wedding yesterday at St. Andrews. They have stuck together for 8yrs and have been on each others side against the odds. Is this love or is Mbugua a gold-digger? Is there any wazuan who has ever had genuine romantic feelings for an older person in their adult life? Please share coz I cant understand how Mbugua left a cute girl in Gilgil to propose to a 67yr old!

You might have to qualify that.
Most husbands are older than their wives. Which means that (to answer your question) women routinely fall for older people.

perhaps the question is more to do with what an "acceptable" age gap is. I'm not even sure "acceptable" is the right word to use here.

It is possible. But I think money almost always plays a big role, on the part of the younger person. The older person is made to feel 'he/she still got it' Wambui angekua msoto, would Mbugua still be by her side? Only he can tell us.

Have you ever eaten a delicious meal of say Pilau after which you are left smacking your lips thinking "tamu sana"? Would it make sense if someone later asked you what is it you found delicious; was it the salt, was it the spice, was it the rice, was it the garlic or tomatoes or the oil. Could you still have loved it had it been served frozen rather than hot? Does it therefore mean that what you liked was the heat in the food and not the meal itself?

People are many things. They are tall, short, old, young, rich, poor, with ugly feet, beautiful hands, long hair, good teeth, talkative, quiet, kind, funny, talented etc. All attributes we possess and circumstances we stand in are part and parcel of who we are. Take out one and the whole is changed. You would be a different person if you were younger or older, a different gender, taller or shorter, less intelligent or more intelligent. You would be a different person if you were more or less educated and yes you would be a different person if you were richer or poorer.

Mbugua and Wambui love each other and have been together for 8 years. They met and fell in love in the circumstances that they found themselves in. Love is a beautiful thing. Let us not scandalise it by dissecting it.

perharps we will get a comparison if we gave the story a global perspective, but locally i doubt there is a comparison. btw, i believe that a man is still a man..so how does mbugua survive. i guess that this guy would be a priest next yr.(forced celibacy) lol

This is a game of inheritance. Wambui is playing cards with her former in-laws to ensure that she is not tera-burued in Nyarugunga when she leaves this world. However, the issue of age difference should not be a determinant as long as she is not 70 years older than you.
