Key to a Long Term Relationship: Be "Boring"

An expert has claimed that the key to a long term relationship is to be "boring."

Who's this expert? Mark Manson - the author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F***. Manson says if a relationship is going to stand the test of time then it needs to be boring.

He told Business Insider:

That sounds really weird to people but if you think about it, a really happy 80-year-old couple that's been together for 60 years, the reason that they've been together for 60 years, it isn't because they took all these private jets and they had their crazy vacations and 'OMG look at their pictures.' It's because they were able to be boring together.
