Liz

While different things may be important to us in terms of who we end up dating, apparently there is broad agreement as to what is important in order to keep a marriage together.

A new research survey has found the three most important factors are common interests, a satisfying sexual relationship and sharing household chores.

That’s according to married adults in the US anyway.

Here’s where each factor ranked:

  • Having shared interests (64%)
  • Having a satisfying sexual relationship (61%)
  • Sharing household chores (56%)
  • Shared religious beliefs (47%)
  • Having children (43%)
  • Adequate income (42%)
  • Agreement on politics (16%)

Married people, do you agree? Let us know in the comments.
