Whether the relationship thrives or withers isn’t up to you alone. As the saying goes, it takes two to tango.

The long-term effect is devastating: microstress invisibly weighs us down, damages our health, and contributes to a decline in our overall well-being. The good news is that once you learn about microstress, you can fight back.

It's not just about the money. Arguments about money are by far the top predictor of divorce, says Sonya Britt, a professor at Kansas State University.
