Heartbreak or Hurt Pride?

I have been sitting here reading stories and questions for hours. So many things I have read have a similar theme "Can I get her/him back?" I have thought about all of it including my own story. This is what I came up with: A person has to examine themselves first before anything or anyone else. I have sat in the depths of despair, heart-break, and confusion. Why? Why would I torture myself, take all the responsibility for a failed relationship upon my shoulders and try to carry it on my own? Why would I give so much love, respect and friendship to someone who meets such things with spite, bitterness and cold cold cruel mind games and still want them in my life? Am I so afraid of being lonely that I would subject myself to someone like that? Is my pride so fragile that it would defeat its own purpose? After thinking about things in this light I am starting to have a new outlook on my situation. Instead of heartbreak and despair, I am starting to feel sympathy for my ex. What a terrible place it must be to not know compassion, kindness, love and friendship.

Food for thought:

So many have stated they were thinking of breaking up with their girlfriends/boyfriends just to be broken up with first. All of a sudden they feel they made a mistake and ask "How can I get them back?" Why would you want them back? For whatever reason, you were planning on breaking up anyway. Why would them breaking up with you change anything? False pride. There is a certain power that you feel when you are planning a break-up. It is almost like someone else's fate is in your hands. You convince yourself that you are in control of something that you are not. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, you are beaten to the punch. It leaves you saying "wait a minute, why would they break-up with me?" Then the false pride kicks in and a short time later you are wallowing in a heartbreak that really shouldn't exist. Another thing to think about: When we decide we are going to break-up with someone we put out subliminal little cues that the end is near. I think anyone who has been in a failed relationship can attest to that. So, To all of the heart-broken remorseful souls, do you really want them back? or are you lonely with a case of hurt pride?
