Today, Sunday, January 5th is the biggest online dating of the year.  That news story caught my attention for some reason so I read more.  Dating sites will experience heavy traffic with some spiking as high as 80% more than normal.  Why: The reason is due to a mix of New Year's resolutions, post-holiday breakups and Valentine's Day around the corner, says one dating authority.  The phrase "post holiday breakups" caught my attention so I did some research.  Here are the top five times during the year when breakups occur:

1.  New Year's Day - a good time to make a new year resolution to part company.
2.  Valentine's Day - the time it is determined a partner isn't romantic enough.
3.  March - the whole month.  This has something to do with longer days, more light physically and leading to more light emotionally.  Time to let go of a relationship which just isn't that great.
4.  Early November - this often comes from high school sweethearts who are off at college and see things differently, especially their relationship.  Good bye!
5.  Thanksgiving to Christmas Day - the coming of year end prompts many to reflect and make decisions about who they want to spend their life and time with.
