This study aimed to investigate the differences and similarities between the future expectations for conjugality of married women of three age groups, from the perspective of interpersonal relationships (Hinde, 1997). Thirty-five married middle-income class women with children were interviewed: 11 aged between 20 and 30 years old (group A), 12 aged between 35 and 54 years old (group B), and 12 aged between 60 and 78 years old (group C). They were asked what their future expectations for married life would be. Thematic analysis of the data was carried out. There were more differences than similarities between the women's responses. The expectations of the respondents included the desire to live and grow old together, work, leisure (groups A, B and C), mutual understanding, the desire to have more children and to see them grow (groups A and B), the couple's health, God and religion, companionship, mutual respect (groups B and C), union and sexuality (group B). This study contributed so that the participants could reflect on their expectations regarding conjugality. It cooperates for studies in the field of interpersonal relationships and for professionals who work with the aforementioned theme.
