You may think that the key to happy marriage is a secret bottle of gin behind the cornflakes and a bottle of white in the evening.<\/p>\n
But, according to Headwater Holidays \u2013 and not much of surprise really, it’s actually taking two holidays a year, having a meaningful conversation twice a week and cuddling 11 times in a fortnight.<\/p>\n
But it’s good news for those in a marriage of misery, as the average happy couple has at least one ‘healthy’ argument every week.<\/p>\n
Spokeswoman for Headwater, Catherine Crone said: \u201cThe research indicates that marriage is all about give and take, and making time for one another.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is clear that, while couples expect a great deal of love and affection from each other, they also understand that a real partnership includes having both deep and meaningful conversations as well as healthy arguments, to ensure they resolve anything which is bothering them.\u201d<\/p>\n
Headwater’s secret to a happy marriage is:<\/p>\n
Holidays – 2 a year
\nShort breaks – 2 a year
\nSay \u201cI love you\u201d – 9 times a fortnight
\nKiss – 6 times a week

\nDeep and meaningful conversation – 2 times a week
\nDinner out – 3 times a month
