Make Two Huge Arguments Monthly As Part Of Your Marriage – New Study

The findings of a new research, which was conducted by the Warner Leisure Hotels in the UK has said, a perfect marriage must include, at least, two big arguments every month.

The study which polled 2,000 UK happily wedded adults also showed they benefitted from taking a short break away together twice a year, as well as two longer holidays.

The study said, it also pays to be affectionate, as the most contented couples reckon they have sex five times a week, and say “I love you” up to 20 times a fortnight.

The couples also kissed two or three times a day, and cuddled 11 times every week.

The UK Study also revealed, couples placed importance on listening to each other grumble about work, showing the other how proud you are of them, and being respectful in front of others.

According to Simon Thompson, Managing Director, Warner Leisure Hotels: “We weren’t surprised to see that taking short breaks is one of the secret ingredients to a happy marriage.

“Many couples who visit us say they feel closer after a romantic weekend relaxing and unwinding together – and it certainly helps that neither have to do the chores,” he said.

Thompson said: “This quality time spent enjoying shared interests seems to be a winning formula for a lasting marriage, along with placing value on time apart pursuing individual hobbies.

According to the MD: “However, as this survey clearly shows, it takes a good mix of humour, affection, understanding and interest to keep a relationship exciting.”

Other tips shared by those deeply happy in wedlock included forgiving bad habits, not going to sleep on an argument, and turning a blind eye when the other is being moody or annoying.

Many respondents also swore that by trying new things together, going on weekends away, and surprising the other half with unexpected gifts.

Again, the research revealed that couples believed, the key to their success is down to picking their battles, not being offended if the other uses the loo in front of them – and always taking their partner’s side, regardless of whether they are right or wrong.

Reportedly, the researchers also found 63 percent of married adults placed a lot of importance on their other half behaving romantically – with one in five impressed with the larger gestures like booking a trip away.

More than seven in ten agree that spending time away together without any distractions could add excitement to any relationship – and remind them why they love each other so much.

Interestingly, over 36 percent was content with the smaller acts of kindness, such as dinner out every now and then.

The Warner Leisure Hotels boss, added: “The definition of romance differs from person to person.”

“Some are content with tiny little gestures on a regular basis, and others want the full hearts and flowers approach to love.

“Whatever your preference, the key to a happy marriage appears to be time – time with each other, time apart, time to forgive, time to laugh, and time to understand,” Thompson concluded.
