Have you ever noticed that it is not the most handsome or the richest guys for whom the girls fall? It is usually the funny guy. That example teaches you a million dollar lesson in life. A little bit of sense of humour can save your marriage from eminent doom. If you are too serious about life them you might lose your wife. That seems like a cocky joke but it isn't. It has been proved by research that couples who have laughter and fun in their marriage are much more successful in their married life.

Here are some of the ways in which sense of humour really helps you save your marriage from breaking up.

How Sense Of Humour Can Help Save Your Marriage?

1. Most couples complain these days that they are bored in their relationships. It is one thing to have conflicts and quite another to be 'bored' in a relationship. It basically means that there is lack of fun in the marriage. This can be changed if you tease your hidden 'funny vein' with your partner.

2. If you have too many conflicts in your marriage and things are getting really too hot to handle then your sense of humour is still the best way to release some steam. You both could actually sit and laugh at how ridiculous your fights are and that will eventually break up the tension between you two.

3. You cannot become funny all of a sudden; it will come across as fake to your partner. Make a humble beginning by cracking a practical joke. Let it not be a very cruel one like making your partner wait for hours under the subway and then you pop out from behind her and say 'surprise'. It might just annoy him or her further. Let the joke be pleasant so that your spouse sees in you something in you that they have not seen before.

4. Watch comedy shows together; it really helps. Most of the comedy these days is slapstick and we consider ourselves too intellectual for it. But none of your fat books will help you save your relationship. So quit them and watch something funny together; you will be surprised at how much closer it brings you too.

5. These days the main reason for marriage conflicts and the divorces is the frustration that we carry forward from work. When both spouses are back from a grueling day of work the irritation levels are high. Instead of snapping at each other laugh at the hilarity of your situation. Making fun of your respective bosses can actually be the best way to laugh unless you end up fighting about whose boss is worse.

Use these relationship tips to bring some sense of humour into play in your marriage so that it can be saved.
