Breaking up and making up?!

i don't constantly go back to the ex. when she says its over, I treat it as law. and when I saw its over, I treat it as law. the breakup-makeup game is nothing but an immature game for immature people. most of them eventually realize it though and grow out of it.

I was with my ex boyfriend for two and a half years and he consistently broke up with me and then we'd make up. He was really insecure and whenever I confronted him about why he acted this way, he said it was because he continuously thought that I was better without him. Whenever he messed up, he'd dump me and say that he "had to leave me" because he "loved me" and it was "best for me." I personally think that it can be a healthy habit sometimes, but too much of it can really damage a relationship. Eventually, I got so tired of him breaking up with me that I just stopped trying to get back with him. In my head, I'd say "hm I wonder when he'll break up with me next!" After awhile, its really damaging. Now I have a lot of trust issues.

I think love is what makes you go back to the ex. I felt like I needed to be with him. He was my best friend and really a beautiful guy. I still miss him, but he's moved on and does the same thing to his new girlfriend. I guess that we get attracted to people and would, like sweetface08 said, more rather deal with the pain of being with them than the pain of not being with them.

I know this was posted a long time ago, but I connect with this post so much that I had to respond.

well my ex and I were together for about 4 years give or take and for about 3 years we were back and forth and it was mostly because I fealt safe with him,i didn't think that I could be happy without him. he kept coming back to me because he was a succesful musician and me and him where together before he got there so he thought that I was the only female he could trust now because I was there before all this even though we stopped getting along we just kept coming back for those reasons.
