The “happy couple” recipe is pretty simple. A dash of selflessness, pinch of laughter, and add a cup of trust—and you've just about got it.
1. We’re not afraid to talk about the serious sh*t in life.
The best relationships are not vanilla. Truly happy couples talk about the real things that are bothering them and avoid using text messages as a way to ambiguously say what they mean without actually saying it.
2. We spend every waking minute that we WANT to spend together, together.
We’re happy because we respect each other’s space. And we spend time together when it’s right for us, which gives us a chance to actually miss each other.
3. We do cute little things like buy breakfast.
Hopping out of bed and running across the street to surprise our S.O. with breakfast is actually super rewarding. Who wouldn’t like a warm breakfast sandwich first thing in the morning?
4. We have stupid inside jokes that sound completely inappropriate in public.
We know how to laugh together and at ourselves. Especially when we’re in public.
5. We’re not above discussing the future.
Whether we’re discussing dinner, the outfit for tomorrow or a new career choice, we’re not afraid to consult with one another beforehand.
6. We don’t rehash stupid sh*t from the past.
The past is the past for a reason. Plus, we don’t really want to have a pointless and potentially deadly throw down on who did what when.
