幸福爱情的12个陈词滥调（下）

7. Distance makes the heart grow fonder. Maintain your own friendships and occasionally have a night out without your significant other. Doing things

without your s.o. not only makes you miss him or her, it also keeps you sane. And, in case the relationship doesn't work out, you'll still have your friends.
适当的距离拉近心的距离。保持你自己的朋友圈，偶尔也可以抛下另一半出去住一晚。偶尔尝试没有另一半的生活不仅让你更想念他/她，还会让你保持理智。

而且，万一你们的感情出了问题，你还有自己的朋友。
8. Sound it out. It other words: communicate! Talking out the tough subjects-money, religion, fidelity, raising kids-will not be the most fun you've had,

but it'll be valuable.
有话就要说出来。换句话说：要沟通！把那些棘手的话题拿出来讨论，钱、宗教信仰、忠诚度、抚养孩子等等。这些讨论也许不那么有趣，但是很有价值。
9. Laughter is the best medicine. Learn to laugh at yourself and at silly mistakes. If he throws your $300 cashmere sweater in the dryer, laughing it off

is, in the long run, better than getting angry. It's is just a $300 cashmere sweater, not the end of the world.
笑容是的良药。学会嘲笑自己和那些愚蠢的错误。如果他把你那件价值300美元的羊绒毛衣丢进了干衣机，笑笑就过去吧，总比发脾气要好。不过是毁了一

件300美元的羊绒毛衣，又不是世界末日。
10. Keep your eyes on the prize. Yes, he forgot your co-worker's name for the tenth time, but it probably doesn't mean he doesn't care about you. If

you keep your perspective fixed on the goal-to be in a happy, functioning partnership-you're less likely to get tangled up in every minor annoyance.

Remember, you both want the same thing.
别斤斤计较。是的，他第十次忘记了你同事的名字，但这也许并不代表他不在乎你。如果你将自己的目标保持为拥有一段幸福、和谐的感情，你就不容易被每件

琐事所烦扰。记住，你们的目标是一样的。
11. Quitters never win. Find a ritual and keep it alive, no matter what. Whether it's always kissing each other good night, renewing wedding vows every

year, sleeping in as late as you want once a month or committing to having sex once a week, pick something that makes you both feel good and stick

to it, even when you're tempted to skip.
不要半途而废。为你们俩定一种惯例，并且保持下去，不管是什么。无论是互相亲吻道晚安，每年都重温一次结婚誓言，每个月睡一次懒觉，或是保证每周一次

夫妻生活，选择一种让你们俩都开心的事情并坚持下去，即使你偶尔会想放弃。
12. When the going gets tough, the tough get going... to therapy. Studies show that couples who seek counseling during rocky periods are more

successful in resolving their issues than those who don't. Whether its from a religious figure, counselor or mental health professional, getting an expert

to help sort out strife is as wise as forgoing self-installation and hiring a plumber to put in a new sink.
当婚姻出现问题时，就该接受治疗。研究表明那些在感情的困难时期寻求过咨询帮助的夫妻，在处理两人之间的问题时会更成功，不管这种咨询是来自宗教人士

、顾问或是心理健康导师。请专业人士来帮忙处理争吵是明智的，就好像聘请一名水管工来安装一个新水槽，而不是自己折腾。
