OK. We’re not suggesting that if you do these things with your significant other, you’re going to stay together forever, but these ten items can help, according to Sumaiya Kabir from Lifehack.org.
10 Little Things Happy Couples Do Every Day
1. Communicate. Air differences in a constructive way, but no nit-picking, please.
2. Grow common interest. Find an activity or intellectual interest in common with your spouse and pursue it together.
3. Spend time together. Whatever spare time can be spent together, do it. Bonding does not occur when you’re separated.
4. Cuddle huddle. It doesn’t mean making love every day, but finding comfort through touching and holding before sleep can do wonders.
5. Hug and peck. Continuous light affection can mean powerful medicine to maintain happiness.
6. Signify I “heart” you everyday. Saying “I love you” reinforces, well, love!
7. Have a sense of humor. Laughing together can be, well better than sex!
8. Switch off their ringers. Detaching from tablets and smartphones returns you and your spouse to the “here and now.” No matter how hard, do it.
9. They believe in PDA. Not Personal Digital Assistant, silly. Public Display of Affection. Showing others that you’re a couple reinforces your own feelings of togetherness.
10. They plan their futures together. Realistically state your life goals together and make a realistic plan to achieve your dreams.
