title: Laravel Validation: how to validate n days after date field 1?
body: <p>Is there a way to validate directly such that date field 2 is after n days of date field 1?</p>
  
  <p>For example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>'date_1' =&gt; 'required|date_format:"Y-m-d"',
  'date_2' =&gt; 'required|date_format:"Y-m-d"|after:date_1 +5 day'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I tried something like this but it doesnt work</p>
