If the 5:1 rule is the secret of happy couples, the 2:2:2 is the formula for making the relationship last a long time, facing the inevitable ups and downs with the right spirit
We are inundated with secrets, rules, magic formulas and miraculous remedies to make romantic relationships last, make them more fulfilling, achieve the desired happiness as a couple. Do they work? Depends. But then what is so different about it 2-2-2 rule?
What makes the difference are the direct testimonies, in fact the couples who have decided to apply it to their love life declare themselves largely satisfied with the results. This is demonstrated by the many comments published under the post of a user who shared the method on Reddit. Post that quickly conquered the top of the web, becoming viral.
Having made the necessary premises, it is equally necessary to get to the point by explaining how this rule works in practice. You can very well do without it in the phase of falling in love, when the toads still seem like princes, and start applying it as soon as the daily routine rears its ugly head and the butterflies abandon your stomach.
It is from that moment that the 2-2-2 can save the couple (from decline), helping them to carve out timely moments of sharing (before it is too late).
The formula is precise (and must be respected): every two weeks one is programmed romantic evening, every two months we give ourselves a weekend in a nice place, every two years he detaches himself from everything and everyone a whole week. In short, nothing too difficult or too demanding.
The secret is ultimately to spend quality time together, which seems obvious but isn’t.
Did we need a rule to understand this? No, but since there is a lot of difference between saying and doing, by regularly applying the “mathematical formula” it is easier to obtain results. Try it to believe it!
