Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.gottman.com/blog/3-daily-habits-that-are-better-for-your-marriage-than-an-exotic-vacation/ Quotes to ponder: "Real-life romance is fueled by far more humdrum scenes. It is kept alive each time you let your spouse know he or she is valued during the grind of everyday life." "A husband and wife are continually making bids for each other's attention and the most successful couples are the ones who continually 'turn toward' their partners." "Rituals are regularly occurring activities or traditions that you share as a couple, which serve to strengthen your bond."
