WHAT IS THE CRAZIEST REASON YOU HEARD FOR A BREAKUP/DIVORCE? Here is what the internet said:
• She visited a fortune teller for fun. She was told by the fortune teller that “he is not the one” she’s seen with in her future. So she broke up with him the next day.

CATCH YOURSELF COMPLAINING WITH THE “BUT-POSITIVE” TECHNIQUE _ When you’ve developed a habit of complaining about things, it’s not always easy to shut it down. An easy way to help yourself stop is by catching yourself in the act and adding a positive spin to it. Jon Gordon, author of “The No Complaining Rule,” suggests filtering yourself with the “but-positive” technique: If you find yourself griping, add a ‘but’ and say something positive. For example, “I don’t like driving to work, but I’m thankful at least I can drive and I even have a job.” Yes, your complaint still spills out, but the positive note you add helps clear the air a little. You register that you made a complaint, add a reason why it might not be worth complaining about, and — over time — complaints will become far less common.
