How old man and the fairer sex feel most happy?
happiest age in a man's life - 37 years.These are the findings of a new study.
In that 37 years - this is the happiest age, admitted to the men themselves during the interview, explaining that it is at this age the strong half of humanity already achieve the desired career heights, acquires family and to the mid-life crisis, "covering"usually by the age of 50, it is still far away.
In his youth, men think that they will bring happiness expensive and fast cars, luxury parties and vivid adventure.But in reality, the highest level of satisfaction in life brings stability, routine and long-term relationship.As it turned out, was particularly pleased fatherhood brings strong sex - 43% of men admitted this event the most important male happiness of his life.And 35% of men believe the highest happiness for themselves a family.
In addition, the mark in 37 years due to the fact that the crisis of middle age, so frightening men occurs only in 45-47 years, and teens with problems, fears and unsettled pass into the category of memories.According to experts, it is to 37 years in the majority of men to overcome the most significant key events in his life that can cause a lot of stress.Therefore, I feel at this age the most happy.
Why 37 years of age became the period when most men are satisfied with their lives?
«The fact is that after 30 and close to 40 years comes the so-called third period of life when people evaluate their progress over the lived period and assesses, all he had to do, and in most cases understands that finally hecan enjoy their lives and themselves - says psychologist, director of psychological center of "assistance" Anna Khnykin.- But do not forget that it was to 45 years comes the same "midlife crisis," and when it comes right, the feeling of happiness and contentment are waiting for people who previously did a good job.Because so many people age 35-40 to come in time for the opposite conclusion - that they did not do anything, that hopes were deceived, and goals - have not been achieved.That is, on the one hand, 35-40 years - is the beginning of the third part of life when a person can breathe and live for themselves, but on the other hand - and many are waiting for reassessment of his life, the realization of failure and no joy in this.When you are about 30 years - this is usually the time of the first serious victories, time for a new business or a successful turns in his career.40 And when already on the nose "midlife crisis," we begin to wrap up the first part of life - what was done, what worked and what did not.And if a person is faced with a negative perception of their lives, it is important to understand that negative - it is also a result.Because it is in any case, the experience, and now one knows exactly what not to do. "
According to the same survey, women feel most happy for 40 years.According to another poll, conducted by British sociologists at 28 women are fully satisfied with their sex lives in 29 years - a career in the 31 - relationships of 32 - family and home, and 33 years - the financial situation.
Previously, scientists have argued that the best period in the life of men is considered to be retirement age.The survey was conducted Bureau British market research commissioned by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.
According to the survey, men over 65 years of average life satisfaction on a 10 point scale was 7.8 points.The most miserable consider themselves middle-aged men - 40-year-old man suffering from a midlife crisis;they rated their life satisfaction by 6.8 points.In adolescent boys (aged 16 to 24 years), the figure was 7.3 points.
As for women, it turned out to be the happiest girl who was 20 years old (indicator of life satisfaction have amounted to 7.55 points) and women older than 65 years (average life satisfaction score was 7.65).
psychologist Anna Khnykin believes that the transfer of "a happy period of life" with the retirement age to the average age occurred due to the fact that the changed lifestyle and the very understanding of happiness.
«bear children later became, deliberately and in an already arranged life - and this baby brings more fun.In our country it is connected with changes in the general cultural level.We now have the youth gets to his feet first, and then think about the children ", - explained Anna Khnykin.
«If earlier in the concept of" happiness "invested happy doing nothing, when during retirement, after 50, you can have a rest.World this was - you first developed, tried and tested properly, and then be able to relax.Now people are full of illusions about doing nothing is not fed, they do not want to be retired, nobody wants to do nothing, the opposite seek to develop and implement themselves.That is why, in my opinion, happiness is "moved" to an earlier period.It is expected that around 35-40 years people have the right to fully dispose of itself and is already less dependent on the circumstances, it becomes self-sufficient, "- says the psychologist.
From what depends on our feeling of "happiness", and what categories we measure it?
important in determining self-esteem are not only age and gender but also the availability of work and health.Unemployed and disabled people generally have low levels of satisfaction with their lives - only about 6 points.
«It is an important parameter of happiness - a grown-up children.Because when the child grew up, I grew up with the independent and lives separately, and then you can safely let go and live your life - and here comes the fun.When children grow up with the woman falls the responsibility, and usually women over 40 are beginning to realize themselves in the work.Men are happy to reap the fruits of their labors.When business brings passive income - then also people to enjoy life and feel happy.If a man to 40 years depends on the employer, and is afraid to lose a piece of bread, then what kind of joy can be said?Then, the person remains the same fears as the 25 and 30 years ", - explained Anna Khnykin.
