Laughter Makes the Heart Grow Fonder

Here is an article about how laughing together can improve your relationship. The study found that couples who reminisced about laughing together felt closer. I think finding someone who makes you laugh is one of the most important things when you're out there dating. The really happy couples I've met always have inside jokes and things that make them start cracking up.

A recent advice column from The Red and Black, an independent student newspaper from UGA. The second one touches on one of my pet peeves - trying to change the person you love. You can't do it! You can help them better themselves, but only if they want to. You will never ever ever be able to take someone and mold them into the person you want them to be. Ever. I like this quote from the article: "Yes, you might be able to persuade him to change - love is a hell of a motivator - but you should know that real love is loving someone for exactly who they are (imperfections included), not changing them into someone you can love more easily. People who truly change do so by their own volition, not external pressure." I love it.
