Married couples who fight live longer

Don't keep all those emotions and feelings bottled up! We've all heard this from the mental health community, and married couples are now hearing it again.

In fact, those married couples who express anger regularly may even outlive those that don't, according to a new study out of the University of Michigan. In other words, express and don't suppress.

Getting anger out into the open and resolving it was found to be much more healthy than bottling up anger and failing to provide any resolution at all. Dr. Ernest Harburg went on to say "If you bury your anger, and you brood on it ... and you don't try to resolve the problem, then you're in trouble."
