Suzanne Harrington: Old people having lots of sex? I can't take the pressure
Picture: Andrew Hasson
A survey of 2,000 married couples commissioned by an adults-only UK hotel chain has been offering secrets of a happy marriage. Unsurprisingly, holidays in adults-only hotels figure highly. More surprising is the specific numerosity of the findings: six meaningful conversations a month; saying "I love you" 20 times a fortnight; three long walks a month (presumably together); and two major rows. Two major rows? Every month?
Don’t look at me - I’m happily unmarried. I’m just reporting what the internet said. But if I were having two major rows a month with anyone, from my chap to my internet provider, I’d be taking a long hard look at the situation, and wondering if actually, I wouldn’t be happier living alone in a small cabin off-grid with some goats.
