In this charming little volume, more than 50 couples share their touching, clever, affectionate, and sometimes silly rituals of romance - it then goes on to explain how these loving gestures, private nicknames, and other forms of endearment help create the enduring bond between life-partners.Included among the endearing stories in "What Happy Couples Do" are: a woman who puts little lipstick kisses on notes, and surprises her partner by leaving them in unexpected places; a couple that have developed a secret code for telling each other "I love you" from across a crowded room; and, two elderly partners who always pause to kiss when crossing a bridge - a ritual commemorating their very first kiss.
