當(dāng)你們的戀愛關(guān)系走不下去的時(shí)候你通常會察覺,但你如何告訴你的另一半他/她被甩了呢?最近有一項(xiàng)調(diào)查揭示了男女到底是如何結(jié)束戀愛關(guān)系的。

男女提分手時(shí)最愛用10大爛理由
Going against the stereotype of the commitment-phobe male, the most popular line used bywomen in ending a relationship is: 'I’m not ready for commitment yet.' The second mostpopular is: 'This is going too fast for me.'
傳統(tǒng)觀點(diǎn)可能認(rèn)為男人提分手最典型的情況是害怕承諾,但其實(shí)“我還有準(zhǔn)備好給你承諾” 是女人在分手時(shí)最愛說的理由。女人最愛用的第二個(gè)的理由:“這對我來說太快了”。
Interestingly, money – and the earning power of their partner – is far more important to awoman than a man. 'You don’t earn enough money' is the third most important reason on thewomen’s list, whereas it doesn’t feature at all on the men’s list。
有趣的是,女人遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)比男人更看重金錢,所以伴侶的賺錢能力很重要。“你賺錢太少了”成為女人分手的第三大理由,然而在男人的分手理由列表上,這點(diǎn)根本不重要。
'It's not you, it's me': Men tend to be less concerned with giving emotional explanationswhen they dumped their partner- and are more likely to use technology to let them know。
“你沒有錯(cuò),是我自己的問題”:而男人在甩掉自己的女友時(shí)不太會使用感性的理由,而是更可能用技術(shù)性的客觀理由讓女友知道。
For men, poor sex and lack physical compatibility appears far more important than women forwhy a relationship has failed。
對于男人來講,性生活不和諧不夠契合是導(dǎo)致兩人分手的重要原因,他們比女人更看重這方面。
The third most popular reason for men is they are no longer attracted to their partner andthe fourth most popular reason is: 'We’ve lost that sexual spark.'
男人的第三大分手理由是他們的伴侶無法再吸引他們,緊接下來的第四大理由為“我們已經(jīng)失去激情的火花了”。
Both sexes prefer to end a relationship face-to-face but they are also increasingly using emailand text to tell a lover they are history。
大多數(shù)的男人和女人更愿意和伴侶面談分手結(jié)束關(guān)系,但目前用郵件或短訊的分手形式也在逐漸增加。
Just over half of women (52 per cent) would meet a partner to say the relationship is over,while fewer than half of men (43 per cent) would break the news in person。
超過一半(52%)的女性會向通過一個(gè)對象側(cè)面來告知分手,而余下的43%女性則會親自將消息告訴他人。
Harley Street dating and relationship expert Louise Van Der Velde had this advice:'Relationships work when one whole person attracts another whole person。
哈利街的婚姻關(guān)系專家路易斯凡德爾維爾德提出一則建議:“當(dāng)一個(gè)人的全部特征完全徹底地吸引另外一個(gè)人,兩人之間才會迸發(fā)愛情”。
'If you’re giving 50 per cent, and the other is giving 50 per cent, it’s not going to work. Both ofyou need to commit to giving the relationship no less than 100 per cent. And I think it’s sohealthy for people to be honest about their expectations in a relationship。
“如果你只給予對方50%,而對方同樣如此,那你們的愛情就不可能持久。你們雙方都需要給予這份感情百分之百的努力。而且我認(rèn)為,人們需要誠實(shí)地對待自己的感情期望,這樣才是健康狀態(tài)。”
SeekingArrangement owner Brandon Wade said increasing numbers of online daters jumpquickly from one relationship to the next。
Seekingarrangement網(wǎng)站的所有人布蘭登-韋德指出,現(xiàn)在越來越多的在線約會者會從一個(gè)關(guān)系中迅速跳到另外一個(gè)。
He said: 'They meet someone they like, have some fun and then quickly moved on. If you aregoing to be a success dating online you have to learn how to end a relationship without causingtoo much fuss. The other message to come from this survey is that women like men withmoney. It has always been so。
他還說:“他們遇到自己喜歡的人,一起找點(diǎn)樂子然后迅速離開。如果你打算成為一個(gè)成功的網(wǎng)絡(luò)戀愛高手,你必須學(xué)會如何結(jié)束一段感情同時(shí)不會引起太多麻煩。另外這項(xiàng)調(diào)查給到我們的一個(gè)信息是:女人喜歡有錢男人。亙古不變。”
