I heard this on the radio the other day and thought it was pretty interesting. It was more than just the broad, "cultivate intimacy, have a sense of humor, etc." These are some daily behaviors that were observed in couples that had been happily married for 25 years or more:
- Kissed (pecks count) at least 4x day
- Hugged at least 2x day
- Said "I love you" at least 2x day
- Sat within a foot of one another for longer than 5 minutes (watching TV, reading, etc.) each day
- Were intimate at least 3x week
I feel like these behaviors are more results of good communication, forgiveness, transparency, and daily prayer for each other. But by the same token, just doing them feels pretty good too.
