Why do many people split up in November?

Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik were separated days before the start of November, Camille Cabello and Shawn Mendez announced yesterday after two years of contact, and therefore Kaya Gerber and Jacob Elord ended the romance, and these are just a few examples. So much separation in a while.

Why is it thought that some of the couples split up in November? Have you ever heard of the term “turkey drop”? It is a phrase used to describe the period about Thanksgiving (the glass is the traditional dish of this holiday). The term refers to the period when students are separated from their high school girlfriends, although the term involves more than students.

During vacation time, students may feel pressured in the relationship. Going home on vacation may mean concern over the perception of a mate or family about the seriousness of the relationship - not to mention the stress of the situation of potential family commitments. The idea to invite someone to a family meeting could be overwhelming,” told the Cosmopolitan psychiatrist Rhonda Mattox.

Similarly, a portion is divided after the university marks a new phase of recognition, and many couples who are dating in high school do not find themselves fulfilled, which they understand after starting university. First weeks away from home can be crucial. Young people enter an exciting and challenging stage. They may find that their needs change, and the needs for change can help to explain separation.

But simple statistics about when couples tend to split up suggest that November is not the month of separation for students alone. In 2010, data reporter Devn McCandless analyzed more than 100,000 Facebook profiles, only to find out that the biggest increase in divisions occurred shortly after Valentine's Day and just before spring break, but another significant increase occurred just before Christmas.

I think the break before the end break removes the pressure of new relationships. Staying in a vacation relationship may result in a faster pace. The decision to separate may be related to fear of commitment, meeting with a partner's family, and giving gifts.
