幸福婚姻的几个必备要素 一项美国研究揭示，幸福婚姻的秘诀就是每周亲吻10次，每周说10次“我爱你”，每个月至少约会三次。有三个共同的兴趣爱好、每年出去度假两次也是幸福婚姻的必备要素。 ? The secret to a happy marriage is kissing and saying I love you 10 times a week and going on three dates a month, an American report has revealed. ? The detailed study of 1,000 married Americans also found three surprise romantic gestures and 10 deep and meaningful conversations each month are key to a harmonious（和谐的） relationship. ? Having three shared hobbies and interests and going on two vacations a year are also among the requirements for romantic bliss. ? It also emerged many Americans believe the secret to a perfect marriage is accepting each others faults, trust and, importantly, being able to say sorry. ? Plenty of quality time, being best friends through thick and thin, and being able to have fun together are also on the list. ? A spokesman for global market researchers OneP, which commissioned the research, said: Anyone can get married, but it takes a lot of commitment and effort to make your marriage a perfect one. ?

It found the perfect marriage will also see couples have sex three times a week, and enjoy around seven cuddles during that time. ? Six nights spent cuddled up in front of the TV and two nights out with their own friends each month, along with two mini-vacations a year also make a successful marriage. ? Even having three arguments a month was among the list
