10% of Relationships Are Going to End Today?
According to a new survey, about 10% of relationships are going to END today.
You'd THINK people would wait until AFTER Valentine's Day to dump someone . . . but maybe people see today as the best opportunity to finally be honest?
Women are more likely than men to say they're going to be dumping someone today.
For what it's worth, last Valentine's Day, Facebook found people were 49% more likely to change their status from "single" to "in a relationship" than from "in a relationship" to "single."

Women Want to Wait Two Years Before Getting Engaged . . . and Will Dump a Guy If He Makes Them Wait Five:
According to a survey by a British wine company, only one in eight women would want a guy to propose to them on Valentine's Day.
But that doesn't mean women haven't given a lot of thought to WHEN they want their boyfriend to ask.
Four in 10 women say that two years into a relationship is the right time for a man to propose . . . that was the most-popular answer in the survey.
Only 15% of women say they'd be willing to wait THREE years for a guy to ask them to marry him . . . and any longer than that is pretty much out of the question.
Almost HALF of women said they would DUMP a guy if he made her wait five years to get engaged. One in four women said that if it took that long . . . he was NEVER going to ask.
A 44-Year-Old Woman Goes to the Hospital With a Hernia . . . And it Turns Out She Was Pregnant and in Labor:
On Friday, 44-year-old Linda Ackley of Summit Township, Michigan went to the hospital. She was having severe abdominal pain, and thought she had a hernia.
She did not. She was PREGNANT. And in LABOR. And she had NO IDEA.
We always find it SHOCKING when a woman gives birth without even realizing she was pregnant, but Linda's excuse is better than most people's.
Linda's been married for 24 years, and never had a child.
And in February of 2011, she had an infection in her stomach and some of her stomach muscles were removed. So when she felt the baby twitching and kicking, she just figured her muscles were twitching because of her surgery.
She had an emergency C-section, and ended up having a healthy 10-pound baby girl. She says, quote, "She is our miracle baby. Some people have nine months to prepare. I had hours."
