Unfortunately, many couples often break up before the New Year holidays.
It happens that lovers break up before other holidays. Experts see a certain trend in this.
There is even a special term for such phenomena – scrooging.
It refers to a situation where he or she abruptly breaks off relations with a partner.
The reason is that the initiator of the breakup does not want to buy his “other half” a gift for the holiday.
This usually happens at Christmas and New Year, and a little less often at other holidays.
The name "scrooge" comes from the Disney cartoon character Scrooge McDuck.
That same stingy, money-hungry billionaire drake.
Therefore, it is associated with the desire to save money by refusing gifts through breaking off relations.
But there are other reasons why couples break up on the eve of holidays.
Psychologists say that among these is the understanding that he or she has come to that there is no desire to spend time with a partner on such days or to introduce them to their family.
At the same time, most of the initiators of the breakup, according to them, experience pangs of conscience for a long time after the breakup.
