Today read a news from NY Reuters. The new study says fighting with your spouse can make you live longer. The study found that those who kept their anger in were twice as likely to die earlier than those who don't.
Researchers at the University of Michigan School of Public Health and its Psychology Department released preliminary findings after 17 years of following 192 couples. The couples fell into four categories: where both partners expressed anger when they felt unfairly attacked, where neither partner expressed their anger, and one category each for where the wife suppressed her feelings and where the husband did so.
There were 13 deaths in the group of 26 pairs where both partners suppressed their emotions, as opposed to only 41 deaths in the remaining 166 pairs.
So, If you think you're being attacked unfairly, you should speak up and try to resolve the problem. Please fight back if you want to live longer!
