Or what was the reason? Looking back today, do you think your partner was right?

+1 yI broke up with the last guy I dated because he cheated on me...
He said he cheated on me because I wasn't "emotionally mature" enough for him... yet he cheated on me rather than communicated this to me so... yeah 🙄 Take from that what you will.
Never had anyone break up with me though (I can barely get into a relationship in the first place!) But statistically, I'd say most break ups are caused by communication, or lack of in most cases.
Even if you realize you're no longer compatible or interested in a person, rather than say so, one person is afraid to tell the other person for whatever reason, causing a miserable relationship until a catalyst usually triggers the relationship to end (ie: fighting, cheating, caught in a lie, etc)

+1 yI've dumped guys for every reason on the list there.
I do have communication issues, I talk things through in my head and it comes out totally different and doesn't make sense. It did it my head but not in a conversation and then I shut down to rethink things.

Cheating is the number 1 reason I would break up with someone , As for the other things not as bad unless they were extreme , I did have a girl break up with me because she didnât like that I enjoyed having beers on a Friday night after a week of work , she called me an alcoholic , I laughed and said I guess a lot of people are alcoholics then if they only drink one night a week , I said thanks for letting me know that I though an alcoholic was someone that drank everyday? I will call AA after I finish my beer , She hung up on me lol

+1 yCheating is definitely the worst thing. I think that leads to many. Everything else can be worked through. But certainly isnât good

20 Reply1.1K opinions shared on Break Up & Divorce topic. Lack of emotional support.
00 ReplyI was dumped out of paranoia before. When that happened and she came back to me later on, I told her to hit the road because to me her acting irrationally and dumping me due to being paranoid, was a red flag. Also the reason she came back was because she saw rubbing shoulders with big people. So that was all the tell tale sign I needed to tell her to hit the road. I never took her back. That was the only time u remember Being dumped in my life.
Other than that, I dumped a girl for bringing another guy in the house and thinking I was idiotic enough to be cool with it. I dropped her real quick and she didn't like it. Threw lots of tantrums which was very hard for me to deal with, but I stuck to my guns.
So I would say paranoia and cheating are the two reasons any dumping happened with me.
But I have never been dumped for cheating ever.10 ReplyI think that ALL of these are common reasons to break up. But the worst thing I think someone can do (besides like murder someone) us cheat on your partner.
A lot of other issues like communication and support and some other stuff can be worked through if both people put the effort in.
Cheating always does brutal damage and is the worst thing that you can do. Sometimes it can be worked through.
But. Better to break up or divorce then cheat on your partner.

+1 yOops! Thatâs what I get for staying on LONG after I'm just WAY too tired! I thought it meant have I dumped a guy for that reason, and yes⊠Mike my first boyfriend cheated on me, I could never do that to another human being no matter how unhappy I was with him/ the relationship! There is NEVER an acceptable reason for cheating of a spouse, or boyfriend/girlfriend! If you're not happy, end it, and THEN look for someone else!

Men cheat because we want butt not because we are unhappy
Anonymous(30-35)+1 yWhatâs odd is I donât have a porn addiction, I donât drink, I donât gamble, I actually communicate quite well, I offer support, I rarely lie I try my best to keep it 💯, I have let things go and maintained patience, I donât like cheating. I cook good food, Iâm saving for the future, I believe in God, I know how to give others space, I take care of myself mentally and physically, Iâm pursuing my masters. Despite all that, never had a girlfriend, never had sex, last time I was out on a date was like 2014. Girls have high expectations these days and I blame social media, I blame girls for having fake friends and watching fake shows and I blame platforms like OnlyFans that only value a womanâs body alone. In the end, if I donât get a proper gal on earth, it will be the first things I ask God in heaven. At least there I donât have to deal with getting rejected, getting played/manipulated /ghosted.
00 ReplyYou just missed one which is mind games.
They cause a lot of trouble. Though this can take place knowingly unknowingly but are also one of the reason of breakups.
While rest of all the reasons are pretty much self-explanatory & can lead to failure in relationships

+1 yI've been dumped for "bad texting". Basically she thought if I didn't answer her texts fast enough then I didn't care. It seems a lot of girls on here are asking similar questions about "why is he taking so long to reply to my texts?"
But I think it's better to leave someone like that rather than stay with a texting girl who thinks in such a shallow way.20 Reply
+1 yActually, you forgot the number 1 reason which is bad sex, though I think that might mainly be for married couples. The "Bad Habits" one is kinda stupid, because you should know they do those things before you start dating them, so that's on YOU.

+1 yI've only been dumped in the beginning of the relationship (say 3 months in) and reason could have been anything from my gassiness to something more serious. I had to do the dumping in longer relationship and reasons were an assortment of all of the above.
00 Reply 906 opinions shared on Break Up & Divorce topic. I was dumped very suddenly and cruelly. I had a lot of time to think about it. I was going through a rough time in my life and I was not the most fun person in the world. Maybe she got sick of my pessimism.

+1 yCheating certainly. No communication, no commitment and no plans are clichés women give as a reason to break up when really they are moving on with the guy they are cheating with.
10 ReplyI guess anger and violence. Not that I was violent just stupid angry at him. And I did yell and screamed at him. Completely justified I feel, but I broke up with him. I literally kicked him out.

+1 yIs that kind of like the Reasons For Cheating?
00 ReplyI wonât see boyfriend anymore cuz we only dated 2 years and he deny me meet his mom and sister, holidays Iâm alone including my bday have no guy happy talking to my mom and family saying heâs my boyfriend proud 😞
00 ReplyI've never been dumped or broken up with. Past guys mostly Cheated and lied that led me to breaking up with them. Men seem to do things to force the girl to end it vs them.
00 ReplyNo matter what the issue in the relationship is, or how you categorise it.. you can't get anywhere in a relationship without communication.. So the answer will always be communication!!
00 ReplyMy #1 reason for breakup is my partner's assumption that she owns me.
10 ReplyI think the real reason behind most of these is "found someone better."
10 Replymy sister always break up with her boyfriend cause they re too Jealous / possessive

00 Reply524 opinions shared on Break Up & Divorce topic. I haven't been but I've broken up with people for a couple of these
00 ReplyI've had breakups for seeming to be indifferent because I do not deal with relational issues in an emotionally expressive manner.
00 ReplyUsually itâs either an actual issue (like cheating or abuse) or itâs just theyâre not a right match. We try people on like clothes and see if we like the fit.
