A Survey Finds When Couples Are Happiest In Their Marriage

Is the honeymoon over? That question has been asked and answered forever, but how do you really know? Now, there is a definitive answer.

The happiest time in a marriage is 11 months and eight days after their wedding. That's the word from confetti.co.uk, a British wedding site, which surveyed 4,000 married couples. But don't worry, it's not all downhill come 11 months and nine days.

After two years and four months of marriage, couples enjoy their best sex, as well as romantic meals and nights out with friends. At two years and six months, wives realize they have received a respectable number of flowers, chocolates and compliments. Men helping with household chores peaks just before the third anniversary.

Something very special happens after three years of marriage. Couples feel completely comfortable with one another and have a clear plan for their future. (confetti.co.uk)
