七月之痒将改写七年之痒？
英语课
七年之痒大概我们都听说过，然而七月之痒就很新鲜了。是否七年之痒从此就要被改写了？
Those in a serious relationship have long been warned about the dangers of the seven-year itch 1. But research has found couples risk running into trouble far earlier - thanks to the seven-month slouch.
This is the point at which we stop trying quite so hard to impress our new love and start revealing all the bad habits that have so far remained hidden.
These can include unsavoury bodily functions such as breaking wind in front of an other half, nose picking or letting armpits go unshaven. Before the milestone 2, most couples enjoy an extended honeymoon 3 period where both go out of their way to keep well-groomed and observe good manners.
已婚男女要警惕“七年之痒”说法由来已久。但一项调查发现，情侣之间出现问题的时间要远远早于七年，这就是“七月之懒”。
当两人在一起相处了七个月之后，双方不再像刚开始那样努力想给对方留下好印象，而开始“原形毕露”。
比如，当着对方的面放屁、挖鼻子，或不刮腋毛。而在此之前，很多情侣都处于热恋期，两人都用心地装扮自己，努力在对方面前保持好的形象。
However, it seems once a couple has been together for around seven months they decide they really do love each other and start to let go.
According to a survey of 1,000 adults, the seven-month point is when couples are most likely to think it acceptable 4 to stop paying attention to details such as shaving regularly and keeping nails trimmed while also putting their bad habits on display.
然而，似乎两人在一起到了七个月左右时，他们就会觉得彼此的感情已经稳定，便开始放任自流。
一项对1000名成年人开展的调查显示，情侣们在一起到了七个月时，便开始觉得可以不再注意定期刮毛和修指甲这样的细节问题，而且还会渐渐暴露出自己的坏习惯。
More than nine in ten women and almost as many men admit that they let themselves go once they are in the full throes of a romance 5.
However it seems men are far happier to relax their standards while more women told researchers from Remington that they never allow themselves to be seen looking hairy or too unkempt.
More than half of all adults said they make a special effort at the start of a relationship.
90%以上的女性承认，一旦感情稳定下来，她们便开始放松自己。相同比例的男性也是如此。
然而据雷明顿调查人员的调查，男性似乎更容易放松自己的标准，较多的女性称她们从不会让自己看起来头发凌乱或邋里邋遢。
超过一半的人说他们在刚开始谈恋爱时都特别注意这些问题。
