Summary

This quote humorously highlights the key to a long-lasting marriage. The speaker mentions that going to a restaurant twice a week, with the ambiance of candlelight, dinner, soft music, and dancing contributes to their successful union. However, the playful twist reveals that the couple doesn't enjoy these cozy evenings together but rather separately, with the wife going on Tuesdays and the husband on Fridays. This lighthearted approach suggests that maintaining individual interests and giving each other space while still finding ways to connect can be important factors in a lasting relationship.
