The rise of the on-again, off-again relationship

一次次分分合合的恋情

According to couples researcher Rene Dailey, PhD, an associate professor of communication at the University of Texas, Austin, approximately "65% of individuals have experienced an on-off relationship at some point in their dating history, and 30% to 45% of individuals report their current or most recent relationship has had an on-off nature," she says. One study published in 2013 showed almost half of young people aged 17 to 24 were breaking up and reconciling with exes.

德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的传播学副教授、夫妻研究员Rene Dailey博士表示，大约"65%的人都谈过分分合合的恋爱，30%至45%的人称当前的恋情或最近的一次恋情都有这种性质，"她说道。2013年发表的一项研究表明，17至24岁的年轻人当中，一半的人都会分手，而后与前任和好。

A 2017 study showed that roughly half of daters feel extremely ambivalent about their breakups, knowing that there were reasons to stay and reasons to leave. As one of my interviewees put it: "I can usually tell if someone's wrong for me, but I can't really tell if she's right."

2017年的一项研究表明：有对象的人中，一半左右的人对分手极为矛盾，他们觉得既有分手的理由，也有不分手的理由。我的一位受访者如是说："如果这个人不适合我，我通常都能判断出来，但我却难以确定他/她是否适合我。"
