篇章：研究称谈恋爱会损失两个好友

　　Falling in love comes at the cost of losing close friends, because romantic partners absorb time that would otherwise be invested in platonic relationships, researchers say.

　　研究者称谈恋爱的代价是损失亲密的朋友，因为恋人会占用原本投入到友情中的时间。

　　A new partner pushes out two close friends on average, leaving lovers with a smaller inner circle of people they can turn to in times of crisis, a study found.

　　一项研究表明，谈一次恋爱平均让人损失两个朋友，使得他们身处困境时可以求助的好朋友更少。

　　The research, led by Robin Dunbar, head of the Institute of Cognitive and Evolutionary Anthropology at Oxford University, showed that men and women were equally likely to lose their closest friends when they started a new relationship.

　　这项研究由牛津大学人类认知与进化学研究协会会长罗宾邓巴发起，研究显示无论男性还是女性，开始一段新恋情都会使他们失去亲密的朋友。

　　Previous research by Dunbar s group has shown that people typically have five very close relationships that is, people whom they would turn to if they were in emotional or financial trouble.

　　邓巴的团队在之前的研究发现人们通常维系五段亲密关系也就是5个在发生情感危机或是财政危机时能求助的人。
