Psychologist Tsvetkov: Age difference in relationships is an individual issue

Age difference in relationships often causes a lot of controversy. Psychologist Roman Tsvetkov noted that the ideal difference depends on life stages, experience and preferences of partners.

The specialist pointed out that in youth, the age difference is more noticeable because partners are at different stages of development and pursue different goals, which can lead to conflicts. However, for people over 40, the age difference is not so significant, as both partners are more mature and independent.

The psychologist emphasized that emotional maturity is important for a successful relationship. In some cases, the older partner can compensate for the age difference with their experience, which contributes to harmony in the union.

In addition, successful relationships are built on shared values and goals. When partners have similar interests, the age difference no longer plays a role.

As a result, it is important that both people feel comfortable together, regardless of public opinion or age, summarized Roman Tsvetkov in conversation with “Evening Moscow”.

Earlier, the psychologist told how to help children understand that the Internet can be dangerous. Also experts sounded the alarm because of shopaholism, which is caused by the availability of online shopping.
