Heard from the radio...

that Jan is traditionally the month where most divorces are filed. A lawyer firm in Britain recently commissioned a survey about 2000 couples and got a very surprising (shocking) result. It's like

- half the couples survey stay married because of the children (otherwise they would have splitted)
- 59% of the woman wanted to get a divorce but stayed because of financial dependency
- only 1 in 10 are happy in the marriage

I was surprised too, recently it seems like love is so hard to keep , at least for them Europeans. I hope it isn't so bad for us here in Asia!

To quote the DJ..

"After marriage, the wife wants the husband to change, but he doesn't; the husband wants the wife to remain the same, but she doesn't."

Do you agree? People do change as they grow, no denying that... it's how the couple need to grow to accept these changes and work things out. I know a friend who is going through a rough patch now, I hope everything will turn out well for her this year and that she will find happiness soon again!
