You’ve probably encountered the many sayings people have about relationships—“If they wanted to they would,” “Love conquers all,” “The way to someone’s heart is through their stomach,” just to name a few. Whether through unsolicited advice from friends and family, or adages you may have passed on to friends, people have varying opinions about what rings true across relationships.
In a recent survey from YouGov, an online research data and analytics technology company, Americans were asked to share the best advice they’ve received or given on dating, relationships, breakups, and marriage. In a followup survey, those 2,167 participants were asked if the most frequently mentioned tips and other popular adages were “definitely true” or “probably true.”
