Q: A new study found the key to a good relationship is to do this?

A: putting your phone Down

A new study found that the key to a successful relationship is putting down your phone and doing two things instead:  Spending quality time face-to-face . . . and being affectionate.

The researchers say, quote, “No amount of texting can compensate for a lack of either of those factors.”

But here’s the problem.  Most of us are tighter with our phones than our partners.

Another survey just found that 53% of people admit that they spend more time on their phone than with their significant other . . . and two-thirds of us get distracted by our phones in the middle of conversations.
