7 year itch

[Smowball]

Why do they say you get this in relationships after 7 years? Why not 5, or 3?

[woofgang]

Because of the movie?

[flump1]

Cos then it would be the five year itch ( or 3) !! And it sounded good for a film title !

[emmie]

it probably has to do with the film, going on some people i have met, it was two months, three months, then wham divorce.

[cathfromsaron]

it's not real! you can split up at any time, or stay together forever ...

[rojash]

'Cos if they called it the 5 year itch, you'd be on here asking "why not 3 or 7".

[Smowball]

Lol, I meant why do some people say that a lot of relationships tend to flounder after 7 years

[woofgang]

smo......because of the movie....its a popular misconception

[Smowball]

Have never seen the movie lol, may explain a lot! is it an old film?

[LoftyLottie]

My biggest 'itch' was at about 8 months! But we are still together after 40 years after a few more itches!! I wouldn't swap him!! ;o)

[ummmm]

I think it's 4 years now.

[Smowball]

Lol, think I need some cream, for my severe "itching" at the minute!
