While I haven't conducted any formal research or polls, based on my observations over the years, it seems that the Christmas season can be challenging for some relationships. I've noticed that a lot of couples tend to break up in the two weeks leading up to Christmas, and I've identified three main reasons for these breakups based on my personal analysis.
'Tis the season of gift-giving and receiving, and as you shop for your significant other's Christmas present, you carefully examine the quality of the item, hoping that it will be well-received. However, when you see the price tag, you may start to question whether the relationship is worth the financial investment.
It may seem superficial, but hear me out. Instead of spending a significant amount of money on someone who may not be in your life for long, wouldn't it be wise to assess the quality of your relationship before making a big purchase?
Therefore, the third reason on my list of common reasons for breakups during the holiday season is realizing that your significant other is not deserving of the financial investment in expensive gifts.
The holiday season is also a time for traveling to visit family members whom you may not have seen since the last Christmas. Your family members miss you, and as you plan your trip, you start to question whether your significant other is suitable enough to meet your parents and extended family.
After a thorough evaluation of the relationship's current state and its history, you may come to the realization that the person you are with is not someone you want to introduce to your family. This is my second reason for common breakups during the holiday season.
As the New Year approaches, many of us reflect on the quality of our lives and make plans for the upcoming year to improve them. While evaluating your life, you may also consider your current relationship and whether it is holding you back from experiencing bigger and better things. If your relationship has become dead weight over time, it may be hindering your personal growth.
This is the number one reason why breakups tend to occur during the festive season. The New Year represents new beginnings, and it's a natural time to make a fresh start and prioritize your happiness. If your relationship is broken, this time of year can be particularly eye-opening, as you recognize that it's not working for you.
I acknowledge that this time of year can also be a happy time for many relationships. Couples may get engaged, enjoy the festive season together, and spend more time with each other. However, I cannot overlook the fact that the singles market tends to increase during this Christmas season.
