If you’re planning to get shot of your other half then you better do it today because experts say today (December 6th) is the last day you can acceptably break up with your partner before Christmas and the New Year. Anything after today will make you look like an absolute cunt!

 

Christmas may be a magical time for some but  experts say December is the most popular time to dump a partner, and be dumped. Top reasons for a relationship breakdown during holidays were the spark had gone, with 57% of people giving this as the reason for breaking it off. 44% broke it off because they believed their partner was cheating, 26% weren’t happy with their partner’s living habits, while  18% cited money issues as the reason for their breakup. Lastly, 9% gave their other half the old heevho because they just couldn’t handle the stress of Christmas. To be fair, who’s Ed was dumped by that last group probably dodged a bullet anyway.

 

Experts also discovered a select 1% of people who chucked their partner just so they didn’t have to buy them a gift. Damn, that’s cold! During the research, 2,643 Brits were asked about their relationships, and December 6th was voted as the last date to ditch your other half. People polled felt that any time after this would be considered “too harsh” and you’d have to wait until January. Here’s what researcher Lucy Askew, had to say about it all:  
 

You would think that December would be the most popular time of year for couples to get together, but this research reveals quite the opposite. You’ve only got a few days left if you want to make that dreaded decision, but it is best to do it now to at least give them time to feel better before Christmas comes. You wouldn’t want to be responsible for ruining the most wonderful time of the year for someone by splitting up right beforehand!

 
Research also found that couples break up within six months of moving in with each other. Well that I can believe! Merry Fucking Christmas everybody!
