Finite relationships are beginning up and down a country as men and women prepare for what is being dubbed as "the cuffing season", a phenomenon involving lone rangers deciding to "cuff" themselves to an unwitting partner so they have someone to attend parties with and cuddle up to in winter.

隨著所謂的“抱抱季”的到來，男男女女都做好了準(zhǔn)備，短期的戀愛關(guān)系開始在全國隨處可見。“抱抱季”是指單身者決定把自己“栓”在一個懵懂的伴侶身邊，以求結(jié)伴去參加聚會，并在冬季相互偎依的社會現(xiàn)象。


Many romance experts warn that if you find yourself in a seasonal-specific relationship like this you should beware of forming attachments as come spring you may be dumped.

許多戀愛專家告誡人們，如果你發(fā)現(xiàn)自己正處于這樣一段季節(jié)性的特定戀愛關(guān)系中，就應(yīng)保持警惕，不要形成依賴性，因為春天到來的時候，你有可能被甩。
