@Joe Angelo hey I will try that thanks you!!! She can't get out the past..she wears herself thin with anxiety so she takes on everything and if I can't read her mind or "know her by now" as she puts it then im dammed if I do or dont anything..I haven't really done the annoying stuff in 2 years so its weird kind of to hear her talk about it and most of that shit was me being starved for attention and communication..is she talking now because she wants us to work and get through stuff?? How do I even respond to stuff that makes no logical sense??
💋 The Science Behind the 6-Second Kiss
Most couples kiss... but few truly connect through it. Researchers (including Drs. John & Julie Gottman) say that a simple 6-second kiss with your spouse each day can transform your relationship—and here's why: 🧠 1. It floods your brain with feel-good hormones When you kiss for just 6 seconds: - Oxytocin bonds you emotionally - Dopamine sparks pleasure and desire - Serotonin stabilizes mood - Endorphins lower pain and boost happiness Literally, your body says, “I feel safe. I feel loved. I want more of this.” 💓 2. It lowers stress + builds emotional safety A 6-second kiss reduces cortisol (stress hormone) and activates your rest-and-connect system. Even if you're in a fight or overwhelmed by life, this moment softens the tension. 👫 3. It creates intentional intimacy This isn't a quick “see ya later” peck. It's a micro moment of presence. It's saying, “I choose you” even if the kids are loud, the schedule’s packed, or you’re not “in the mood.” ❤️ 4. It's a ritual that strengthens connection Doing this daily builds a rhythm of affection—keeping the marriage fun, strong, and safe. Over time, couples who kiss more: - Have less conflict - Feel more connected - Experience better sex lives - Report higher satisfaction 🔁 Why 6 seconds? - Long enough to not be rushed - Short enough to do every day - Just enough time to pause, breathe, and connect 💬 YOUR TURN: 👉 Have you and your spouse tried the 6-second kiss challenge? 👉 What changes have you noticed when you slow down and show affection on purpose? Drop your answer below 👇 Let’s normalize intimacy that’s sweet, intentional, and lasting.
