Isn't a 29-year-old man 'ripe' enough to marry?

I am 32 and I have a boyfriend who is 29. I recently cleared college and I am now working. He is however still in college and I am starting to doubt this relationship. I don't know if I should remain committed to him because I think the age difference is starting to get in the way. I think the three year age difference is too much since at times I honestly think he's not ready for a relationship or even to settle down. Should I quit this and look for someone who is my senior?

If there is genuine love between the two of you then the relationship will blossom and lead to marriage. However, since you are already feeling uncomfortable with his age it is best if you end the relationship early. If it is an issue now then be sure this will happen again in future.
