First holiday can ruin relationship 'via socks and sandals'
Published: 10th February 2010
Most people look forward to their first holiday with their loved one, when they get the chance to get away from everyone and spend some quality one-on-one time with each other.
Yet many relationships will end within the first vacation, either during or after the time spent in the wonderful location, according to a recent article in the Independent.
It cited a study carried out by sunshine.co.uk which found that a whopping one-quarter of romances will flag during or shortly after the break together, and for a remarkable amount of reasons: with socks perhaps being one of them.
Yes, that's right, the socks and sandals curse can haunt many fashion-backward individuals, as can the enforced time in each other's company and any roving eyes or misplaced flirting.
Sometimes, fashion can cause outrage: earlier this month, fun socks worn by paramedics working for the North West Ambulance Service were banned by NHS bosses who classed them as unprofessional.
