Smart men make better partners
Why smart men make better partners
Choosing a life partner, a smarter one would be better for the long-term success of your relationship.
Jaako Aspara led the research at the Hanken School of Economics in Finland that looked at the question of picking partners from an evolutionary perspective. The team discovered that the levels of a partner’s intelligence directly affect the “fitness” of the partnership to “survive and support the offspring
Another aspect that impacts the strength of a relationship: smarter men generally have a larger income. This makes them more attractive bets.
The researchers showed a connection between intelligence and marital history. The number of men who got married and stayed hitched increased with each rise in overall intelligence within the five age groups studied. Younger groups most strongly exhibited this effect.
In other interesting conclusions, the scientists found that verbal intelligence relates to the probability of getting married, since being a better talker can make it easier for you to attract a mate. Overall intellectual ability equally relates to getting divorced. Higher intelligence means having the capacity to avoid a breakup by expressing and discussing feelings, according to the research team.
On the flip side, notes Whitbourne, studies showed that intelligent women also have more stable and long-lasting marriages.
