John Gottman: The Magic Relationship Ratio

Take a little more than a minute out of your day and find out the important ratio that best predicts which couples will stay together and which ones won’t.

(And, if you’re interested in stuff like this, Gottman is your man - a titan in the field who has been studying couples for decades now, and learned some fascinating things)

I’ve heard about this before. It’s interesting. I think trying to stay affectionate even through fights and arguments is one of the hardest things to do.

I also highly recommend following psychobabble, it’s a great tumblog full of interesting information and snippets from the world of psychology.
