Mismatch: if spouses have a big age difference

The love is the magic feeling not subject to neither laws of logic, nor reasons of common sense, calculation. It is possible to fall in love with anyone, including the person who is much more senior or is much younger. But one business – the short-term novel, and absolutely another – the marriage relations. Whether mismatch where spouses have a big age difference has a prospect?

If the husband is much more senior than the wife

In such marriages there are positive sides. If the spouse is much more senior, he already has wide life experience, is less inclined to addictions, adventures. And it favorably influences a psychological situation in family. As a rule, the elderly husband already achieved something, has material prosperity and therefore can provide to the wife the worthy standard of living.

Besides, it owing to age and much bigger experience is authoritative for the spouse that reduces the probability of quarrels, scandals.

The burden of the lived years usually affects men less considerably, than women. Therefore the spouse even at very elderly age can look good, have rather good health, especially if watches himself, works out.

In such cases the public opinion quite favourably looks at mismatch, and spouses will not feel moral discomfort.

However such marriage has also "reefs". If first the big age difference is not felt, and the young wife is quite happy with the spouse (including as the sexual partner), eventually everything can change. For example, the saying "In forty five the woman berry again" is known to many people. Really, at this age many women endure kind of the second youth, and feel strong sexual attraction which their elderly spouses will hardly be able to satisfy. Therefore the probability of unfaithfulness, stains, despite love sharply increases.

If the wife is much more senior than the husband

Probability of happy marriage in this case is very small. If the husband is much younger than the wife, he will be hardly authoritative in her eyes. The elderly spouse often too diligently sponsors the husband, on age who is suiting her for sons, it is considered with his opinion a little. Properly she can be understood: she is more senior and is more skilled! But for the man it is humiliating. From here – the increased probability of quarrels, conflicts. As it was already told, the age affects women stronger, than men. Therefore when from former beauty and sexual activity of the wife remain some reminiscence, her husband will still look very attractively for an opposite sex. And he can quite be fond of some young seductress, with all that it implies. At last, public opinion, as a rule, very disapprovingly belongs to similar mismatches.
