Ron’s first marriage was only 19 years old, but since then the series has been intermittent. Her longest marriage lasted 13 years, while her shortest lasted only 10 months.

This time he befriended a young woman through social media and now he has decided to turn the friendship that lasted for six months into the marriage.

According to Mail Online, Ron says that repeated failures had made her very disappointed, but now she has found true love, so there is great hope that this marriage will be successful.

Although he is very optimistic, his new bride is only 32 years old, and the first question anyone hears is, will this marriage be a success?

Ron said that his fiance’s name is Cristel and she is from the Philippines. She is based in Qatar for work and their friendship has been going on for six months.

Ron will travel to Doha, the capital of Qatar, for a wedding next week, after which he is excited to take his bride on a honeymoon.

Have you ever wondered why so many couples look alike?

The majority are of the opinion that after a long period of marriage, some couples begin to look similar to each other, whether it be in terms of habits or facial features.

In some married couples, many things may be the same, while in some couples they may look the same. What do scientists think about this?

Experts say that one of the reasons for resemblance to a spouse is that men or women want a spouse like their mother and father, whether the resemblance is inhabited or appearance.

Experts confirm that the majority of men and women want a similar choice of the opposite gender from their parents for a partner.

American psychologist Robert Zanzonic has shown through photographs taken during their 25 years of marriage since their marriage that a couple may not look alike at the time of marriage but look astonishingly similar years later.

According to scientists, the reason for looking similar to each other may be the exchange of experiences, moods and emotions with your spouse. And there are similarities in the conversation.

Not only that, but experiments have often shown wrinkles on the face in the same place in most couples.

According to one study, we are more likely to be attracted to a person who is similar in appearance to us, and this is called assertive mating, in which it is said that harmony with the same-looking partner develops quickly. This is because of the similarities between the offspring of most couples.

Scientists say that a couple who have been living together for a long time have the same immune system, which may be due to the fact that a couple also shares habits and hobbies with each other.
