Following research, it seems that there is one very important thing we should ask our partners on a weekly basis.

According to Dr James Cordova, director of the Center for Couples and Family Research at Clark University, checking in with your partner on a regular basis must be a priority.

Simply asking if they're okay or how their day was can make a huge difference to how they feel.

Drs. Kathlyn and Gay Hendricks, a married couple, who both work as scientists have come up with a very specific question in order to get the most out of your relationship.

They believe that asking, "How are we doing working together as a partnership?" is very important.

This helps couples see how they're "working together as a team for their children, working together toward financial goals, or being together so they both have a great sexual experience".

Dr Cordova acknowledges that asking a partner how they feel will stop any barriers coming down on communication and help solve problems before there even is any.
