Bela Gandhi, in a short interview excerpt, argues humans are pair-bonders and that longer lifespans plus cultural change have raised relationship expectations. She contrasts past generational expectations (grandparents wanting a partner to 'do this to') with modern desires for a partner who is simultaneously a best friend, soulmate, lover, companion, and confidant—illustrating that expectations today are higher than historically.

You know, it's interesting. I think humans in general, we are pair bonders. We want to meet a person. I think that the fact that we are living so much longer, we have so many more expectations out of a relationship. Right. And our significant other, you know, if you ask your grandparents or if I ask mine, you know, what did you want in a husband or a wife? And they'd say, you know, I wanted a partner. I wanted someone to do this to. Today, we say, I want my best friend. I want a partner. I want a soulmate. I want a lover. I want someone who I can do things with. Confided, right? We our expectations are so much higher than they have ever been at any time in the past.
