Secrets of Happy Couples

1. Cultivate common interests.

2. Walk together.

3. Make trust and forgiveness your default mode. If and when they have a disagreement or argument, and if they can't resolve it, happy couples default to trusting and forgiving rather than distrusting and begrudging.

4. Focus more on what your partner does right than what he or she does wrong. If you look for things your partner does wrong, you can always find something. If you look for what he or she does right, you can always find something, too. It all depends on what you want to look for. Happy couples accentuate the positive.

5. Hug each other as soon as you see each other after work. Our skin has a memory of "good touch" (loved), "bad touch" (abused) and "no touch" (neglected). Couples who say "Assalaamu alaiykum" with a hug keep their skin bathed in the "good touch," which can inoculate your spirit against anonymity in the world.

6. Say "I love you" and "Insha-Allah, May you have a good day" every morning.

7. Say "Assalaamu alaiykum "- May you be with peace: every night, regardless of how you feel.

8. Do a "weather" check during the day.

9. Be happy to be seen with your partner.

Even if these actions don't come naturally, happy couples stick with them until they do become a part of their relationship. They know that it takes 30 days for a change in behavior to become a habit, and a minimum of six months for a habit to become a way of life and love.
