Researchers claim that those couples who poke fun at each other have the strongest relationships. It was found over the course of 39 studies that involved over 15,000 people and lasted for more than 30 years. But there are 2 special things you must remember. Otherwise, your relationship might be lost in some rocky miscommunication.

A sense of humor can be helpful in various situations, and relationships are no different. But what’s most important is to find a style of humor that will make you both laugh. Hall, one of the researchers, noted that a sense of humor is a pretty broad concept. But if you both have a shared understanding of what’s funny, it makes your relationship stronger through laughter.

Humor is supposed to give life to a relationship, inspire laughter, and lighten problems. But sometimes people can go too far and tell mean jokes about their partners, using sarcasm, repetition, or mocking. “Having an aggressive sense of humor is a bad sign for the relationship,” stated Hall.
