I used to think that happiness was a result of circumstances. However, I’ve learned that happiness is a choice. For me, that realization is a relief because it means I’m in control of whether or not I’m happy.

While relationships are meant to be happy, at times they are a good deal less than that. This is a list of things I’ve noticed that couples in super happy relationships do. Believe it or not, these are small changes but the difference in the level of your happiness can be enormous.
Have traditions

Whether it’s Tuesday Taco Night or taking a bike ride the first Saturday of every month, super happy couples have things they can look forward to doing together without fail.
Go to bed at the same time
Even if one of them has to get up early to finish a project, happy couples choose to go to bed at the same time. Sharing a bed is a special part of your relationship and going to bed at the same time means being close physically as well as inviting pillow talk. It’s something small that can make an great difference.
Talk throughout the day

Super happy couples have each other on their mind. They can’t wait until evening to tell their partner about the banjo player chilling outside the library or getting 100% on a test. If nothing else, happy couples call to check on each other’s days during lunch or to square away evening plans.
Date

It doesn’t matter if they’re married, super happy couples go on dates. That’s right, a pre-planned event where they spend time getting to know each other better. It can be a fancy dinner or something casual like going for a walk in the park. The important thing is spending quality one-on-one time together.
Tell the other they’re attractive

A person’s attractiveness is defined by everything from their looks to their fantastic qualities. Super happy couples often remind each other what things they find attractive.
Turn off their phones
Super happy couples spend at least a small part of their day tuned in to each other, and not their technology.
Set boundaries

Super happy couples don’t cross lines in their relationship because they’ve clearly defined where those lines are. They have mutual agreeance on what’s appropriate and what’s not with regards to friends of the opposite sex, exes, and sexually explicit material.
Pray with each other (and for each other)
Super happy couples make God a part of their relationship. They know they need all the help they can get to make it work. Praying together creates unity and praying for the other promotes gratitude and charity.
