Here is how IKEA could solve all your relationship problems

The company has come up with a novel way to bring people together

The thought of heading to IKEA mid-argument with your significant other hardly sounds appealing but judging by their new campaign, the home superstore could have all the answers.

For the campaign, aptly titled “Retail Therapy,” Ikea renamed their famous products with Sweden’s most commonly Googled relationship issues. Then, anytime a forlorn lover turned to Google for an answer to their relationship woe, they were greeted with an item offering a solution.

It’s genius really.

The relation problems range from everything from “She can’t relax” to “My boyfriend is vain.”

Our favorites include the age old “How to say I’m not interested”
