Cheating statistics can describe a hidden emotional relationship, sexual activity outside marriage, a perceived betrayal, or a judgment about someone else’s behavior. The number becomes useful only when the question, population and time period are visible. This resource contains 54 grouped findings from 13 original-source publications and analyses, four MyLittleDesire chart designs and 20 reproducible

Family caregiving changes how relatives and partners spend time together, share responsibilities and maintain contact with other people. Research captures both strain and connection: carers report disagreements and lost social time, while some also describe stronger relationships, meaning and practical support. This resource brings together 60 grouped findings from nine original-source reports covering eight survey

Work friendships can provide companionship, practical help and a reason to stay in a job. The evidence also shows why friendship should not stand in for every other part of working life. People with close colleagues can feel engaged and still plan a job search; professional boundaries can coexist with valuing connection. The resource contains

People use AI for company, advice, friendship and sometimes romantic conversation. Those experiences do not all describe the same relationship. A useful account of digital relationships keeps actual behavior separate from hypothetical interest, and broad chatbot use separate from dedicated companion apps. This resource organizes 60 grouped findings from 14 survey programs, with three additional

Wedding planning research reveals more than fashionable colors. It shows who handles the work, when decisions begin, which tasks couples delegate to AI and where personal preferences differ from supplier bookings. Understanding the question behind each percentage makes the findings more useful. This resource contains 60 grouped findings from seven survey programs plus one signal-and-forecast

Wedding cost statistics become more useful when they explain what the money represents. A completed wedding bill, an engaged couple’s plan and a guest’s expected expenses answer different questions. A mean and a median can also describe the same group very differently. This resource contains 60 grouped findings from nine named survey programs, documented in

Mother’s Day statistics describe several sides of the occasion: planned gifts and spending, what mothers would like, how families celebrate and what happens on restaurant-booking platforms. Their meaning depends on who was asked, which country they were in and whether the number describes an intention or an observation. This resource brings together 60 grouped findings

Financial infidelity statistics cover several different questions: whether someone deliberately hides money, whether they know a partner’s finances, and how seriously they judge financial secrecy. Each question needs its own denominator and definition. This resource contains 55 grouped findings from 11 research programs, plus a peer-reviewed definition source. Four charts and 20 reproducible descriptive calculations

Family estrangement statistics describe different experiences: a relationship someone considers ended, a period of very low contact, or a low-contact relationship with little emotional closeness. Keeping those definitions attached to the numbers makes the evidence more useful. This resource brings together 50 grouped findings from eight study programs, with four charts and 20 reproducible descriptive

Stepfamilies are measured in several ways: through a child’s home, a couple’s parenting history or an adult’s wider family network. This resource organizes 55 grouped source findings, four charts and 20 reproducible calculations about family composition, prior children, household finances and connections across homes. Original sources and their actual data years accompany the findings. What

Breakup statistics are useful only when the relationship, population and time period are clear. This resource brings together 55 grouped findings from 15 source records about relationship endings, communication, initiation, digital behavior, reconciliation and adjustment. It also provides four source-labelled charts and reproducible calculations. What are the key breakup findings? The most useful findings answer

Cohabitation statistics describe several different experiences: sharing a home now, having lived with an unmarried partner at any point, and living together before a marriage. A percentage can change substantially simply because the question or denominator changes. This resource brings together 55 grouped findings from 15 source pages published by seven research organizations, covering the

Romance fraud can involve an invented relationship, a request for emergency help or a fake investment opportunity. Catfishing is a broader form of identity deception: it can cause harm without a financial transfer. Statistics about these experiences answer different questions. This resource brings together 55 grouped findings from 13 primary-source publications or research programs. The

Gen Z dating is better understood through specific questions than broad claims about an entire generation. Do people want a partner? Do they feel ready? What happens on dates? Which expenses or communication habits matter? This resource organizes 50 original-source findings from 10 survey programs, alongside four charts and reproducible descriptive comparisons. MyLittleDesire contributes the

Long-distance relationships can be satisfying, difficult, stable or short-lived. Published research measures each of those experiences differently. A breakup percentage over a few months, a satisfaction score and a survey respondent’s belief about what works cannot be combined into one universal success rate. This resource brings together 50 selected quantitative findings from 13 original publications,

The resource contains 60 sourced observations from eight original publications, plus two supporting chart inputs and 16 reproducible descriptive comparisons. Its contribution is careful source checking, compatible comparisons, clear definitions and four reusable charts. NCFMR’s analyses use Census survey data, so eight publications should not be described as eight independent surveys. What are the key

Online dating statistics describe different things: trying an app at any point, using it now, visiting a service in a particular month, or forming a relationship with someone met online. A percentage is useful only when its population, question and date are clear. This report brings together 60 distinct observations from six original research publications,

How satisfied are people with their relationships, and what do they think makes a relationship work? The answer depends on the question. Rating trust as important is different from trusting a current partner. Feeling loved is different from being satisfied with communication. This resource presents 60 distinct observations from five published survey reports by four
