Couples should make time for fun moments together
The Briefly News team asked psychologist and relationship expert Penny Holburn about the importance of creativity and humour in relationships. She said:
"Relationships need novelty in order to last in the long term. Many people have affairs or look outside their relationship because they are getting bored or need something new. Therefore in a long-term relationship, you need to do different and new things. It helps keep the relationship going and strengthens the relationship.
But, only if both partners like the new and different activity. Whether it should be in public or private depends on the couple. Some people value their privacy and would not like to be seen in public like this. Others are okay with this. You both need to be okay with something being public for the relationship to benefit from the activity."
We asked her if such playful behaviour in a relationship could reflect an emotional trust and connection between partners. She responded:
"If both partners are happy with this it can increase trust and the emotional bond between the couple. Playfulness is good as most of us have so many chores and work-related activities during the day that having fun is something we forget to do or we are too tired to do. It is incredibly beneficial to have some fun during the day."
The team asked Penny how playful and adventurous moments can strengthen a couple's bond. She shared:
"It increases the bond because it is time together and it is fun they have together. Some people feel the fun has gone out of their relationships because daily living gets them to forget about doing new things and having fun."
