Q: A new study finds that if you do this, you are 33% more likely to break up with your significant other?

A: Talk to your female friends about the relationship

 

A new study out of East Carolina University found that when a woman is having relationship troubles and goes to her female friends for help, she’s 33% more likely to break up.

And the researchers say there are two main reasons . . . and they’re both bad.  One, the woman’s friends are secretly JEALOUS of the relationship and want it to end.

Or two, the friends are having their own relationship issues so they take out their frustrations and live vicariously through their friend by telling her to end things.

So if you’re having relationship problems, who SHOULD you talk to?  The person you’re actually having the problems with.

When women told their significant other about their issues, they were TWICE as likely to work through things and stay together.
