couples who play together stay together

In a new study, according to Howard Markman,

“The correlation between fun and marital happiness is high, and significant.”

I've always been one of those folks who loves to have fun. Probably a little too much fun. And of course, I love to play. pretty much anything. Music, volleyball, cards, charades, and definitely cranium.

So I was pleased to see that couples who have fun together are more happy in their marriage.

Really this doesn't surprise me. How can you be sad and tense when you're having fun? And having fun together can create more intimacy...

But often in life couples get so busy with the tasks of life that fun goes out the window.

Therefore, ask yourself -

When was the last time my partner and I went out on a date and had fun?

...you might just find that a little fun can bring newness and life into your relationship...
