Yes dear, I heard you. How we hear our spouses voice, coming up…


Does your husband or wife act like they can’t hear you? They do. 

A recent study put spouses to the test and it turns out that they DO hear each other, even if they’re not listening. Each couple was asked to listen to their better half speaking across the room with some strangers. When asked to repeat what their partner said, the translation was clear with much more accuracy than what the strangers were talking about. 

It seems we’re wired to tune into our spouses conversations. The same experiment revealed that participants could decipher a conversation between their spouse and a stranger much better than one between two strangers. Some married couples can even determine what their partner is saying by tone and inflection alone.
