The Myth of "Happily Ever After"
Why do some relationships thrive for decades while others fizzle despite intense initial attraction? The fairy tales got it all wrong. From childhood stories to Hollywood rom-coms, we're bombarded with narratives about falling in love and wedding planning, with virtually no guidance for the longest part of the story: maintaining a successful marriage. Think about it-couples invest enormous effort preparing for a single wedding day but comparatively little in preparing for decades of marriage. When Suzie married James on an unusually warm January day in Philadelphia, she felt certain their love would sustain them through anything. Years later, she questioned whether love alone is enough, especially during inevitable periods when loving feelings fade. The truth is that relationships require intentional effort-just as we wouldn't expect to transform seeds into vegetables without regular tending, we shouldn't expect relationships to thrive automatically. Happy Together introduces positive psychology as a framework for building lasting relationships. Founded by Martin Seligman in 1998, this science studies what makes life worth living rather than just treating problems. It's like having access to both sides of a reversible cape-the red side for fighting problems and the green side for promoting positive outcomes. While our evolutionary "negativity bias" makes us naturally better at using the red side, positive psychology helps us develop the green side by studying human strengths and potential. **Key takeaway:** Lasting love isn't something you find but something you build through intentional practice.
