Now it's confirmed: IKEA makes love couples quarrel - so if you're afraid of the relationship, buy your furniture for the shared accommodation elsewhere! When it comes to home decor , you want it to be personal and unique, which may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you mention the furniture department store IKEA. Then it is rather the joke that IKEA would be the "divorce department store" that pops up in the memory and that was exactly the joke that a relationship expert and psychologist in the US has now confirmed, writes Expressen . According to Ramani Durvasula from California, couples should be careful not to set foot together at the department store for this very reason, because according to him, you get there as a happy, in love couple - and then leave in a big quarrel. Nightmare for the relationship The fantasy about IKEA is that you as a couple should be able to stroll around and choose furnishings for your shared home which you then assemble together - but a dream is usually nothing more than a dream. IKEA shopping is rather more like a nightmare scenario, at least according to Durvasula. He believes that many of the couples who seek help from him have just been hit by the IKEA nightmare because most of them started the quarrel at IKEA, which he does not consider to be a coincidence. According to him, IKEA is literally a map of the nightmare of relationships with all its hallways and extra prices. And this is exactly what he means is what causes relationships to fail - it is natural to start discussions in a sensitive nature such as who cooks, cleans or looks after the children and who does most or least simply. The challenge is to get home Durvasula believes that if the relationship is still stable after you have chosen your interior, the danger is not over yet, because it is not certain that you will get all the way to the checkout before a quarrel is in full swing. Likewise, you should go home and assemble your furniture later, and everyone who has ever been in a relationship is probably well aware that you have started a fight for less than fuss about which screw to sit where. But if you think you have a sufficiently stable relationship: go to IKEA - and if you manage without a fight there, your relationship will probably last for many more years!
