Surprising key to the happiest couples

Article Abstract:

Married couples often neglect the chief ingredient in a happy marriage: friendship. They wrongly regard romantic affection as the be-all of their partnership. Friendship is nurtured if sharing is continuous, exchanges are anchored on mutual respect, a tolerant attitude is adopted and the harboring of grudges is eschewed.
