Most people who have been married know that it can sometimes be really stressful. However, a new study suggests that constant nagging from a spouse can actually shorten your life.
Researchers at the University of Copenhagen in Denmark found that having a nagging partner can significantly reduce your lifespan. They discovered that 3 out of every 100 deaths each year are directly linked to being “nagged to death.”
This might sound like a joke, but it’s not.
The study tracked nearly 10,000 Danish men and women between the ages of 36 and 52. It revealed that people subjected to nagging from their spouses are more likely to develop heart disease and cancer.
The findings indicated that men are particularly at risk, but both men and women have higher chances of suffering from these illnesses when constantly nagged. Specifically, men who reported frequent nagging and excessive demands from their partners or close friends were more than twice as likely to die compared to men who weren’t nagged as much. Women in similar situations were 34% more likely to die.
Researchers highlighted that “men were especially vulnerable to frequent worries and demands from their partner,” which goes against previous assumptions that women were more vulnerable to such stress.
One possible explanation for why men are more at risk is that they are less likely to share their problems with friends or family.
