uniqueone Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 The people who answered this survey must be all of those people who aren't posting on forums..... http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20365182/?GT1=10252
norajane Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Since this is who they polled: The nine-month study involved college students who had been dating at least two months who filled out questionnaires every two weeks. They gathered data from 26 people — 10 women and 16 men — who broke up with their partners during the first six months of the study. Hardly a representative sample of the general population! Sure, 26 college students who have been shagging someone for a few months aren't going to be so heartbroken...there's another shag just around the corner.
sao2 Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 If all it took were another shag to feel better about a breakup perhaps we aren't that heartbroken
KittenMoon Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 That survey was so stupid! Of course breaking up isn't so bad when it's not someone you're with for years of your life, and who you likely never intended to spend your life with! The broad-sweeping headline they gave this is damn near ridiculous.
