Feeling grumpy? Well, today is the day British couple are most likely to have an argument, according to a relationship expert. The theory is that post-holiday blues combined with the end of the summer and no more bank holidays until Christmas conspire together to make August 30 the day tempers will fray. Paula Hall, a sexual and relationship psychotherapist, said the arguments can be explained by a simple equation: Post-Holiday Depression + Financial Strains + Lack of Light/Domestic Chaos = Relationship Stress. "By August 30, tensions have reached an all time high, as couples realise their summer is well and truly over," Hall said. "This often manifests itself in bickering and needless arguments which is not healthy for the well-being of a relationship."

覺得煩躁嗎?據一位研究夫妻關系的專家介紹,今天是英國夫婦最容易吵架的日子。 對這個說法的具體解釋是,假期后的郁悶、暑假即將結束,再加上圣誕節前再沒有任何假期,這幾個因素合在一起會讓人在8月30日這一天容易發脾氣。 兩性及兩性關系治療師保拉·霍爾說,這個論點可以用一個簡單的公式來解釋,那就是:假期后的郁悶+財政危機+日照減少/繁雜的家務事=關系緊張。 霍爾說:“到了8月30日這一天,夫妻間的關系達到空前緊張狀態,因為他們意識到夏天真正結束了。” “這通常表現為爭吵和沒有必要的爭論,這樣的爭吵會傷害到夫妻間的感情。” |
