According to PayPal’s 2nd annual U.S. and UK based “Can’t Buy Me Love” survey, 60 percent of young couples in the U.S. argue over money at least once a month. The survey looks at the effects that money, sex, work and household responsibilities have on a romantic relationship and rank them against each other.
Other surprising findings uncovered through PayPal’s “Can’t Buy Me Love” survey include:
Nearly one in four couples responding to the survey in both countries use online shopping as a way to keep their partners in the dark about their purchases.
Women surveyed in both countries agree it isn’t the man’s responsibility to pick up the tab after a dinner date. Women in the U.S. think the man should pay only if he initiates the date. Whereas, women in the UK think splitting the check is polite, regardless of who instigates the date.
Traditional “romantic” gifts still top the list of the most popular Valentine’s Day presents given by responding couples in both locations. Cards are the most popular, followed by dinner dates and flowers.
