It is generally accepted in society that in a couple the man should be older than the woman. It is unknown who established this order.
They also say that the duration of the relationship and its quality depends on this very difference.
Let's try to find out how important this is in the relationship between a man and a woman from a scientific point of view.
Scientists are not unfounded in their statements. The age difference between partners really does affect how long the union of hearts will last.
The research results were published in the scientific journal Journal of Population Economics.
Difference of 10 years or more
Here we can say that there is no prospect. No Hymen or Cupid will help, because in couples with a difference of 10 years or more, satisfaction with the relationship decreases over the years.
Their performance was compared with partners whose age difference was insignificant or almost zero.
Perfect difference
An ideal union is created by partners with an age difference of no more than three years.
The reason, according to scientists, is that with a large age difference, partners have low resistance to stressful situations.
A crack can appear due to both financial difficulties and health conditions.
However, this does not mean that all couples of different ages are doomed.
If the goals in life coincide, the spouses respect the common interests and values of each, and are also ready to compromise, then this is a sure sign of a healthy relationship.
