If the experience turned out to be painful or even disastrous for 10% of couples, the majority of spouses questioned by the study (60%) affirm that confinement did not change anything to their usual harmony. More exciting: 30% of couples say that living in confinement together has brought them closer.
According to François Kraus, director of the Politics / News pole at Ifop quoted by Le Parisien , the tendency to deteriorate relationships during confinement is observed in particular among young couples, " probably the most fragile ". " For them, containment was a poison, not a cement, " he comments.

In addition, 12% of respondents say that if the confinement had to be redone, they would not choose to experience it in the company of their partner. “ It is the women who stand out here, especially when they want to be confined alone. The problems of the distribution of household tasks and the management of children, where they are asked more, can create conditions of frustration leading to want to move away, "adds François Kraus.
