1
what is the best age to get married do some age
2
groups have a higher divorce rate is age really a factor let's break this down
3
hi i'm dr wendy walsh for local now
4
and i'm here for you most of my work centers around relationships the science of love
5
so i read statistics all day long we do know
6
that the age of first -time marriage has been going up
7
in america right now it's the age of 28 for men
8
and the age of 26 for women
9
if i had to pick a perfect age to get married i would say wait until at least you're 25
10
when your prefrontal cortex is fully developed in fact research shows
11
that there's a magic number to prevent divorce and it's the age of 23.
12
if you get married younger than 23 you have the highest divorce rate.
13
It's something like 90%.
14
But I think more important than an age is how well do you know yourself?
15
How well established are you with your education and career plans, no matter your gender?
16
And how well have you assessed a potential mate?
17
So think of those things as being really important as much as age.
18
Now let's talk about the fact that people are getting married at every age across the lifespan.
19
One trend that I've noticed, no science here, but I've noticed it, is that people tend to couple up and get married at two important times of their life, either in their late 20s,
20
early 30s, when it's about child rearing, right?
21
Because what's a relationship?
22
It's an exchange of care.
23
And that care may be financial care, sexual care, let's see, domestic care, child care, emotional care, intellectual care,
24
and you really need a lot of care for each other when you're raising small children.
25
The other time I notice a lot of marriages happening is over the age of 50.
26
It's almost like our bodies start to decline and we need that care again.
27
We need the emotional support and we need the physical care.
28
No matter what age you are, I do want you to ask yourself how important marriage is to you and why you need to do it.
29
If you're doing it for your parents, maybe not a good idea.
30
If you're doing it because you really believe in the teachings of your religion and so does your partner, maybe a good reason.
31
If you're doing it because you want to make sure that you have a financially stable household to raise kids in, another good reason.
32
But if you're doing it because you're excited and aroused by a new partner, mm -mm, don't do it.
33
If you're doing it because you're being pressured by anybody, including the person you're about to marry, mm -mm, don't do it.
34
You know, it's okay to actually not marry in America too.
35
That option's there for some people.
36
What can I say?
37
Finally, my last bit of advice is do not marry anybody that you have not had an argument with.
38
You need to see their conflict style
39
and you need to see how they make repair because the road to intimacy is one paved with ruptures followed by repairs.
40
It's during that repair process where you say, I'm sorry, I see you, forgive me, I understand that you really grow emotional intimacy.
41
And the research says, emotional intimacy is the glue that keeps couples together for a long time.
42
I'm Dr. Wendy Walsh.
43

44

45

46

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
