Why We Love National Couple's Day
Love Is Good For Your Health
Studies show that happily married people live longer, are less likely to come in contact with life changing diseases, and have an improved mental health state. Laughter and quality time with your partner might be your best medicine!
Your Partner Reduces Stress
Your partner is your support system. They're there for you when you've had a long day at work or an argument with your best friend. Having someone there to listen to you and provide physical and mental reassurance allows the brain to release endorphins and dopamine, relaxing the body and providing peace for your mind.
We Love Love!
Love comes in many different forms! Whether it's same sex, different sex, polyamorous, or monogamous, we're smitten with all affectionate relationships!
