Actually, age does not matter in love, but when it comes to marriage, many rules of society play an important role in it. Especially there is always a discussion about the difference in the age of husband and wife. In our society, it is generally believed that the husband's age should be more than the wife, but is it really necessary? Or is it just an old thinking? Let's know what science and society say about this.

What does society say?
In Indian society, the age difference between 3 to 5 years is considered an ideal for marriage. Also, in this equation, the husband's age is more than the wife. This recognition has been going on for centuries, especially in the Orange Marriage, this is taken care of. However, there are many marriages where the wife is older than her husband and she has been successful. Shahid Kapoor-Meera Rajput, in which there is a difference of 15 years and Priyanka Chopra-Nik Jonas, in which Priyanka is 10 years older, there are many such famous couples including which there is a big difference of age between which and still these couples are running successful marriage. In today's era, the trend of love marriage is increasing, where these distance of age are reduced. This difference in big cities does not matter anymore. But still there is a large section in the society which still considers this thinking right.

If you are thinking that this is just a rule made of society, then it is not so. Science also gives its opinion on this. According to science, both physical and mental maturity are important for marriage.

31 -year -old Prajakta Kohli also married 35 -year -old Vrishank Kanal on 5 February.

1. Physical and mental maturity: Girls mature quickly than boys.
- Hormonal changes in girls begin at the age of 7 to 13 years, while in boys this change comes from 9 to 15 years of age.
- Therefore, the mental understanding and emotional stability of women develops first compared to men.

2. Right age for marriage: The legal age of girls' marriage in India is 18 years and boys 21 years. Legally, the difference of 3 years between husband and wife is considered correct.

According to the society, a proper age difference is helpful in maintaining balance in relationships.

This fact of science only talks about physical maturity. But it is not necessary to get married as soon as hormonal changes occur. The minimum age for physical relations and marriage in countries around the world is different. Also, marriage is not only on physical relations. This is the reason that the age of marriage cannot be decided only by scientific scale. According to the society, a proper age difference is helpful in maintaining balance in relationships. At the same time, according to science, the difference of correct age depends on how mature both companions are mentally, emotional and physically.
However, it is clear that the success of a marriage, not on age difference, is based on love, respect, and understanding towards each other. Whether the age difference is three years or fifteen, the successful relationship in the true sense is the same where the two companions understand each other's maturity and thinking and support each other.
