Do Lockdowns cause relationships to End

Do the COVID lockdowns cause relationship issues?

There has been a lot said about lockdowns causing relationships to end, but how accurate are these stories.

Do news reports only report on negative issues, and not the positives?

A survey by the UK charity Relate in July 2020 found that 43% said lockdown had brought them closer together.

The charity has said that lockdowns can create a “make or break” environment, with people having relationship “realisations“, both good and bad.

More women felt this issue than men, I wonder why..
