They may forget anniversaries and buy last minute Valentine’s gifts from petrol stations, but men are, apparently, more romantic than women.
他們可能會(huì)忘記結(jié)婚紀(jì)念日，或者到最后一刻才在加油站買情人節(jié)禮物，但是男人顯然比女人更加浪漫。
A survey found that while 48 percent have fallen in love at first sight, a mere 28 percent of women could claim the same.
一項(xiàng)調(diào)查發(fā)現(xiàn)，48%的男性曾一見鐘情，而自稱有過一見鐘情經(jīng)歷的女性只有28%。
The research, published in new book The Normal Bar, questioned 10,000 people worldwide about their attitude towards love and relationships.
發(fā)表在新書《The Normal Bar》中的這一調(diào)查詢問了全球1萬名男女對愛情和感情關(guān)系的態(tài)度。
Using data collected from their online survey, the book aims to dispel the myths surrounding sexuality and relationships, shed light on what a real 21st century relationship entails and help make your own relationship more satisfying.
這本書采用了從在線調(diào)查收集來的數(shù)據(jù)，目的是揭開蒙在性愛和感情關(guān)系上的神秘面紗。該書揭示了21世紀(jì)感情關(guān)系的真面目，對提高人們感情生活的滿意度也有幫助。
The survey, which is ongoing, contains 1,300 questions and touches on everything from sex to the most attractive physical features to personality traits a prospective partner looks for, the Washington Post reported.
據(jù)《華盛頓郵報(bào)》報(bào)道，這項(xiàng)仍在進(jìn)行中的調(diào)查包含了1300個(gè)問題，涉及從性到最吸引人的身體特征再到潛在伴侶尋求的個(gè)人特質(zhì)等方方面面。
Other interesting figures from the survey included the finding that only 74 percent of people are happy in their relationship and 66 percent of those questioned believe their partner is their soulmate.
調(diào)查還發(fā)現(xiàn)了其他一些有趣的數(shù)據(jù)，例如只有74%的人對自己和戀人的關(guān)系感到滿意，66%的被調(diào)查者認(rèn)為他們的另一半是自己的靈魂伴侶。
But perhaps the most interesting - albeit worrying - discovery was that having sex without emotional ties outside a relationship was not technically regarded as an affair by many.
但也許最有趣的——盡管也是令人擔(dān)憂的——發(fā)現(xiàn)是：許多人認(rèn)為和伴侶之外的其他人發(fā)生的沒有感情的性行為嚴(yán)格來講并不叫外遇。
While only 15 percent of those asked admitted to having had an affair, the number confessing to being unfaithful shot up dramatically when the question was phrased as ‘sex outside your current relationship’.
只有15%的受訪者承認(rèn)自己有過外遇，但當(dāng)這一問題改了個(gè)說法，變成“你現(xiàn)在的感情關(guān)系之外的性行為”時(shí)，承認(rèn)自己不忠的人數(shù)量急劇增加。
A third of men and 19 percent of women then said they had indulged in extra-marital relations.
在回答這一問題時(shí)，三分之一的男性和19%的女性表示自己曾有過婚外情。
The books goes on to explain that for many, the secret to a happy relationship includes having regular date nights, using pet names, holding hands, passionate kissing, back rubs and frequently saying 'I love you'.
這本書解釋道，對于許多人而言，快樂戀情的秘訣包括有定期的約會(huì)之夜、使用昵稱、手牽手、熱吻、互相搓背、經(jīng)常說“我愛你”。
But the most important factor that almost everyone surveyed agreed on, was communication.
但是幾乎每個(gè)被調(diào)查者都認(rèn)同的最重要的因素是溝通。
In unhappy relationships, a lack of communication was cited as the number one reason for it breaking down.
在不快樂的感情關(guān)系中，缺少溝通被認(rèn)為是戀情失敗的第一大原因。
