It's that time of year again - the date most likely to spell doom for relationships is fast approaching.
And unfortunately for the hopeless romantics among us, that day is yet to come. According to statistics, the most popular day to break up is December 11, reports news.com.au.
And the second most popular time of year to break-up is in March - right after Valentine's Day, the original data reveals.
The data, first collected by Information Is Beautiful in 2008, was compiled by statisticians who studied relationship status updates on social media and found that the most common break-up date falls two weeks before Christmas.
December is already filled with high pressure events, from the end of year work Christmas party to boozy catch-ups with friends you haven't seen since lockdown - and of course the mandated family gatherings.
