- A Huge 40% of All Relationships Are in Jeopardy this January as the
New '(500) Days of Winter' Effect Thaws Love Lives Across the UK!

Did you find love in the long hazy days of summer 2008? Then
it's make-or-break time for Brits as a new survey reveals that Hollywood was
right and '500 days' really could be decision time for a lot of couples! Add
to that, January being the most popular month to throw-out the old and bring
in the new, then you better beware if your loved one needs 'to talk' this
week!!

Couples surveyed highlighted that 16 months - 18 months is the
most crucial time in deciding how their relationship will progress.
Interesting reasons as to why break-ups happen at this point included 22% who
claim they've simply grown apart, 13% have their eye on someone else and 9%
feel bored in and out of the bedroom!

Jo Hemmings, a celebrity Behavioural Psychologist and the co
founder of the Relationship Coaching Academy, who has appeared on TV
programmes such as Big Brother and BBC and SKY News, comments: "After
reaching the milestone of a year and half, bigger decisions start to loom for
couples such as, should they move in together and is this the person they want
to spend the rest of their lives with. With the New Year psychologically being
a time of reflection, January is certainly the most popular month for breaking
hearts and new starts."

The survey of over 2000 Brits-in-love was specially
commissioned by Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment to mark the Blu-ray
and DVD release of 500 Days of Summer. Starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and
Zooey Deschanel, this offbeat story reveals the highs and lows of an
unravelling relationship that sees lovesick Tom (Gordon-Levitt) royally
dumped after 500 days in a relationship with the cynical Summer (Deschanel).
