Humor is the lifeblood of any relationship. Get your partner to laugh and they’re smitten. Keep them laughing and they’re yours. Now and forever. To get you giggling and in the mood for Christmas cheer, Bored Panda has collected some of the best examples of husbands and boyfriends pranking their significant others and having a laugh. Check them out below, upvote your fave pics, and get inspired, dear Pandas!

Bored Panda was curious to learn more about making long-term relationships work better, so we reached out to ‘Relate,’ the United Kingdom’s largest provider of relationship support. Last year, they helped over 2 million people strengthen their relationships. ‘Relate’ counselor Barbara Honey explained to us that having a sense of humor and “shared loves and likes” really helps maintain attraction to your partner after many years and decades of being together.

Psst, Pandas, you can check our previous posts about bfs and hubbies who make life interesting right here, here, and here.

It sounds funny, but your wife "left you" with YOUR kids to get a drink ONE NIGHT and you are pranking her like she wronged you? That's actually pretty toxic.

Yep. I feel bad for the folks at the bar. That was annoying for everyone. Some of them probably left, too, so the bar makes less and the servers lose out on tips. It's funny as a thought, but in reality it's an a**hole move.

So .. you're mad that your wife wanted a break and asked you to care for your own kids for a while so she can have a night out? And because you're salty about that, you've decided to annoy her

Awww, widdle manchild couldn't handle the mother of his kids going out with her friends for an evening, so had to insert himself into it somehow. Pathetic! I wonder how many times he's gone drinking with hid friends since the kids were born?

song he was able to play at the bar his wife was at (an app on the phone) has the phrase, Got knocked down, but got up again. He played it repeatedly then called the wife to see how the night was going, and when he said the kids got down, but then got up again, she knew it was her husband who kept playing the song. If she has a really good sense of humor he may just get smacked upside the head, no sense of humor, probably divorce. Me? I would plot revenge.. A dish best served cold

A lot of people are making unnecessary judgments here. None of us knows if his wife doesn't get to spend time alone or with her friends. People are making assumptions that this must be the only time she's got out just because she has kids. We don't know anything about their relationship yet people are so offended as if they personally know these people. Let's try not to project our own preconceived notions and experiences on other people's relationships.

Pretty clever I must say. Whenever I have drinks, listening to all kinds of different music is the #1 thing I'll do. So this would have totally ruined my good time so much that I would have left for another bar.

When My Wife Had An Ultrasound For Our First Child I Took A Photo Of The Print Out So She Could Send To Friends And Family On WhatsApp

When My Wife Had An Ultrasound For Our First Child I Took A Photo Of The Print Out So She Could Send To Friends And Family On WhatsApp

Instead I sent her this xenomorph image and she sent it to everyone before realising what it was. She was not amused.

Jokes, pranks, and laughter can help create a solid foundation for any relationship. What you need are common threads that bind you and your partner together and humor can certainly be a vital part of creating common ground. Having a playful, optimistic outlook on life can certainly help keep things fresh and lively!

“Another thing that bonds you is shared experiences and memories that you can look back on together. Familiarity doesn’t always breed contempt!” Honey from ‘Relate’ told Bored Panda that working on experiencing the world together can bring couples together.

And we’re very happy to learn that familiarity doesn’t always have to lead to passion being snuffed out. (Ahem some of us are a bit afraid that routine can lead to apathy.)

However, that’s not all when it comes to keeping the flame burning bright. At the end of the day, we love those that we spend the most time with. So naturally, we need to dedicate some one-on-one time for our partners. But it’s just as important to find the time just for ourselves because we’re individuals, not just one half of a couple. And time alone helps you avoid resentment.

“Setting aside quality time for each other is important but also having your separate interests and time apart can increase your attraction to each other. Keep things playful and be appreciative of your partner,” Honey said.
