This 7 year period is now immaterial.Partners tend to drift away, mainly because of boredom in their life. for boredom the partners are themselves to be blamed. A study by researchers of Stone Brook University, new york and University of Michigan, found that if couples are bored with themselves after a period of seven years, are more likely to stay bored even after 16 years of marriage. the other finding by them was, when the couples are bored with eachother, they feel less closeness. So to correcy this boredom. intimacy and closeness is what is needed in marital relationship, and to pep up your happiness.
