Casting Light on the Dark Side of Relationships
"This above all: To thine own SELF be TRUE and it must follow, as the night the day, thy canst not then be false to any man."
---William Shakespeare

95% of all divorces involving children will be initiated by the wife
50% of those killed in urban areas will be killed by a mate during a breakup
76% of all second marriages will fail during the first five years
