Enjoying your spouse seems like an obvious thing to do, but it isn't always as easy as we'd think or like. This week we cover 6.5 ideas on how to increase your level of "likitude" with your spouse. Here's a quick preview:
1. Carve out time together.
2. Being seen & heard.
3. Be curious and genuinely interested in activities your spouse prefers (that you don't).
4. Have a "mutual" sense of humor.
5. Recognize & respect different needs for interaction & introversion.
6. Get out of your normal context.
7. Seek out friends who see (and remind you of) the good in your spouse.
The Stat of the Week is about leisure time activities and time spent caring for children from the American Time Survey conducted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).
