Researches have found that many couples get divorced shortly after returing from either a summer or winter vacation. They think it has to do with the fact that vacation is a domestic ritual for a lot of couples, and going on a vacation may exacerbate problems that are already present in the relationship. It doesn’t mean that all couples will get a divorce after a vacation, but it can be a contributing factor. Just try and work out your relationship problems as they happen and you should be fine.
Key Takeaways:
- New research finds that divorces tend to rise following vacations.
- According to a summary of the research, they found divorce consistently peaks during the months of August and March – times that follow winter and summer holidays.
- Pay attention to your relationship throughout the year, and deal with whatever issues are brewing along the way. Don’t wait for vacation time to heal any conflicts.
