The season of broken hearts!?!

Facebook Data Sets: Relationship Break Up Seasons!


It’s that time of year again…It’s raining relentlessly, the grass has grown a foot over the weekend, and if you’re in the Midwest you can’t figure out what to wear from one day to the next, and spring cleaning is in full affect.  Our romantic relationships are being put to the test while some say this is break-up season and others say its “hook-up”. Well a Facebook study supports the claim that it is in fact break-up season check out the link above. So why is it that these break-ups occur? Throughout the winter months most people are bundled up in sweaters, coats, scarves, etc. We cuddle up with that special someone all winter that we hooked up with when the summer weather abandoned us. By spring has the relationship become burned out and boring that quickly? Or is it that little glimpse of skin that we (both males and females) see at that first Spring party of the season that makes people desire someone new. Ladies are busting out their open toes shoes and mini-skirts the guys are wearing shirts that show off their physiques. Overall our clothing becomes more revealing than it has been for the past few months.  So is break-up season REAL! Why or why not?

Once the weather gets warm, peoples hormones go crazy. But its hard to really say if spring time is break up or make up season. In reality, people are more prone to cheat in the winter time when they are stuck indoors than when the weather gets warmer.... Hmmmm so is there really a such thing as break up season or is it just year round? Food for thought....

Good points Dumebabyy...did you see the chart? Interesting stuff...IDK if people's hormones are only outrageous during the spring or just year round we'll see in our FB News Feeds whether or not more break-ups are occurring.
