Straight From His Mouth: 10 Marriage Tips From Happily Wed Men That Have Nothing To Do With Sex

5. Marry someone you can laugh with. I’ve often heard that women like a man that can make them laugh but apparently men feel the same way! Almost every happily married man I spoke with referred to having a woman in your life that you can laugh or joke with. In other words, life is too short to take serious all the time. Apparently, having a woman by your side that can keep you in good spirits goes a long way.

6. Peace and quiet is underrated. Although these happily married men recognized that the women they love generally liked to talk more than themselves – and that was ok – peace and quiet was often underrated in the relationships prior to their wives. As one friend put it, “I think the key to a happy marriage, for a man, is understanding what most men want. Most of the married guys I know appreciate nothing more than peace and quiet. Just don’t bug us. A peaceful household free of drama and arguing goes a long way.” In other words, talking is fine and the men know it’s a key part of maintaining a happy marriage, but sometimes silence is golden.
