Couples: How To Stay Together in Harmony
Most adults have a natural desire and need to find their soul mate. Evolution is one reason, the other is tradition. Whatever the background to the union, couples stay together in harmony when they embody certain characteristics. This post is about what it takes to be one of those couples.
Importance Of Being Together In Harmony
When your family and friends ask when you will settle down some of you may decide to get on with it before you are ready. There are other couples who don’t choose each other but are brought together by tradition. Some come together by pure attraction.
Anthropologists found out that monogamy among mammals is rare and developed in order to stop males killing their rivals’ offspring. Once the males stayed around to look after their young, children were reared by more than one parent, enabling an extended childhood and brain development.
Children who are raised by harmonious couples perform better on all scores measuring adjustment, achievement and adaptability. When you are secure with your partner, your immune system works better. You are less vulnerable to illness.
A combination of evolution, tradition and desire brought you together. Making it work has multitude benefits for you, for your partner, and for your kids. To stay together in harmony is down to you.
