<strong><span style="font-size: 12pt">A new research has suggested that relationships in which the woman is more attractive than the man are more likely to fail.</span></strong><br />u00a0<br />Scientists from Stirling, Chester and Liverpool universities found that beautiful women seem to realise they can pick and choose their mates, whereas an attractive man with a more ordinary woman seemed to be more content and less likely to stray, reports the Telegraph.<br /><br />  <table class="ae_noborder" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2" width="200" align="left" border="0">  <tbody>  <tr>  <td><img alt="" src="/imagedata/2011/may/sad1.jpg" border="0" />u00a0</td></tr></tbody></table>Researchers took photographs of men and women in over 100 couples, some of whom had been together for a few months, others for many years, and they were then rated on looks.<br />u00a0<br />The analysis showed that in relationships pairing a "beauty" with an average man, it tended to last only a matter of months.<br />u00a0<br />Rob Burriss, one of the researchers, said: "This would indicate it is the woman who is in control of whether the relationship continues."<br />u00a0<br />He added that beautiful women may realise they can afford to pick and choose.<br />u00a0<br />Conversely, the less attractive women "may have to make do with what they have, hence the longer relationships", he said.<br />The work was published in the journal Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin.
