Couples in a Welsh assisted living facility mentioned that having a wonderful family, a strong sense of humor, and the ability to barbeque are all crucial components of a happy marriage.
You might assume that making concessions, communicating effectively, and being affectionate would rank highly.
However, a 63-year-married husband and wife claim that the real explanation is far more delectable.
Ninety-nine-year-old Josephine and ninety-one-year-old Aubrey Langley first met in 1958 while foxtrotting at the Mostyn Dance Hall in north Wales.
A long-lasting relationship, in Mrs. Langley’s opinion, requires “a husband that knows how to barbecue and make an exceptionally good gin and tonic.”
A “good sense of humour” is important, Mr. Langley continued; after all, laughing is sometimes a healing quality.
Later this month, the pair, who went on their first date in the back row of a Pontypool movie theater, will celebrate 64 years of marriage.
Care UK’s Llys Cyncoed home in Cardiff hosted a celebration where residents who had been married for a total of 199 years discussed their secrets to a happy marriage.
Couples in love will be treated to a special private dining experience this evening, replete with champagne.
They will be treated to a three-course dinner prepared just for them, Sky News has been informed. (As well as maybe some especially tasty gin and tonic.)
