What is One Big Mistake You Made in your Past Relationship?

Question

Leapfrog00 · Accepted Answer

I almost got married once, and I just knew she was 't right for me. I made the mistake of accepting her cheating. I remember one particular afternoon, I was at work and she called me and told me not to come home right away because she had a guy coming over she was going to have sex with.

My whole life, I really didn't think I could do any better than these types of girls. I still wonder maybe it's something I did or said to make these girls cheat on me, but yeah, I made the mistake of staying with them and accepting it.

Not realising my ex was a pervert. Just because he was young and good looking. His behaviour was not normal regarding sex. I was too young to stop it.

I gave her a second chance when I knew she didn’t deserve it.

AviatorTom · Answer

It's a mistake I still make. I know when a woman talks about a problem, the best thing to do is just listen. But as a guy, and as an engineer, I sometimes cannot resist the temptation to try to solve her problem.

Justmeagain1 · Answer

I tolerated bread crumbs because I loved them so dearly, I poured from my proverbial cup and looked after the best interests of the ones I loved right in front of me instead of the one that needed me the most (me). I forgot that fighting does not have to end in a break up, to communicate effectively and identifying issues is fine but working towards fixing them is important too. There’s regret and grief there. Huge amounts of it.

NathanDavis · Answer

no big mistakes, not on my last relationship but on one of my first ones, yes... very wrongly assumed that if she had told me about something, she also might told her very best friends... oh hell, I was wrong about that lmao very wrong, I got in trouble for assuming that much, lol

Titanic1912 · Answer

Trying to start a relationship with a girl who doesn’t wear panties, who supports the LGBTQ, has liberal beliefs, and not a very strong Christian. She doesn’t wear panties because she’s a witch. Witches never wear panties so they can get a better grip on their brooms.

HoneyButterCup525 · Answer

Got married to the person I thought was right for me but turned out to be the opposite. In my 20's getting married twice was a mistake and now I feel I shouldn't try again. Now I'm 31 and single, I still have many men offer themselves to me but it's something I don't want to do again. I wish I never gotten married in my 20's especially twice.

Bricealan · Answer

I didn't terminate it when I should have. I realized the relationship was not going to change, and my partner was not going to change either, and I continued with it, because it was one where we traveled and did a lot of activities together and shared the cost, and that allowed us to do more, than most, but that did not outweigh the downside of things and I did not see that clearly.

Tiptoetamm · Answer

Not knowing when to leave. Honestly when I give my self to someone I give my all and sometimes I don't know when it's become unhealthy for me I'm loyal to my own fault

Anemone978 · Answer

I only had one real relationship.. and two whatever ones.. The real one went on way too long because I didn't want to hurt him and I really wanted to stay friends but he said if we break up we are done forever that went on for 12 years... The other one I was seriously in love with but he didn't love me he said I would probably do to him what I did to my husband and he was mean to me and wouldn't commit to me. I guess the mistake with him was I never made him feel secure because he didn't make me feel secure either.. I really regret him the most. As for the last guy their was no love even though he said he did.. I just don't know how to talk to him without being rude and I guess vice versa.. lol I guess I just hate guys too much... cuz I can't seem to capture one I really like.

I put myself in a position where I trusted her too much. I doubt I'll learn from that mistake though as you can't carry that over to the next person.
