58% of polled Filipinos admit to breaking up with someone
using their mobile phone.
In an online survey of over 500 Filipinos, 58% of
respondents admit to using mobile phones to end relationships.
Almost 30% used texts, 22% called, and 7% used instant
messenger. The use of emojis was not measured.
The online survey on "Heartbreaks and Healing"
conducted by Lazada, the country's leading online selling and shopping
destination, wanted to investigate how technology has affected how we get
together, fight, break up, and move on.
When it comes to developing relationships online
profiling has become a standard practice. 54% of respondents check a potential
date's social media profile before going out on one. Online research and dating
is now so intertwined that even if they like someone in person, 60% of people
have said that they lost interest after doing more research on social media.
Even after breaking up, more than half of the respondents
(52%) report stalking their ex's social media page.
While breakups are tough, 1 out of every 3 respondents,
ended up getting back together with their ex.
How to get back together? Trust is one important factor.
Almost 65% of respondents say they share their email, phone and app passwords
with their significant other.
Gifts don't hurt too. 75% of respondents agree that
giving gifts helps in the reconciliation process. "I'm sorry Gifts"
don't have to be expensive though, with 69% of respondents saying they do not
have higher expectations.
At the end of the day, if you and your significant other
(SO) stay together or drift apart it is important to not harbor any ill will.
More people want to wish their exes well this Valentine’s day (40%) than not
think of them at all (33%).
