Polls: Break Up & Divorce

Does it ever end happily? I haven't broken up with anyone until now and yeah I'm still sad about it and I still like my ex, but if it didn't work out first time why should it work out the second time?

We broke up well mainly because of our quite hotheaded personalities, we argued over almost every little thing, also we had slightly different views regarding some stuff (family and such), he wanted me to leave my family even because they're abusive but it is easier said than done.

Anyway, he keeps trying to contact me, saying he wants to "talk" but every damn chance he's trying to get close though deep inside I think he still likes me, he didn't take the break up well, according to our friends he started drinking more after out break up.

I don't know what to do, how am I supposed to know if giving a chance is the right thing to do?

No one likes to take the blame for the reason why the relationship failed or ended, but I guess it's good to reflect on it so you can change if needed...

So, thinking back to your past relationships, did the relationship end because of you or because of your (ex) partner?
Or was it mutual/both?
Why did you break up?
If applicable, have you changed?

Thinking back on my past relationships, I always found myself attracted to the guys who had some mental issues. Great at masking it, but later found out the struggled a lot and it caused issues in the relationship. I was always the one by their side, but they'd push me away due to these mental issues that they left unresolved. I was always the one to get broken up with because they just needed to fix themselves and couldn't maintain a relationship. I wouldn't say either of us were to blame for the relationship ending, but the reason for the breakup was always because of their own issues.

she reached out to me after we broke up and let me know she was here for me to talk about things. Now, she’s giving me advice about life. Is this normal?

Basically, my boyfriend and I are broken up now (since Wednesday), and he asked me for space. This happened due to a string of miscommunications and my mental health issues. He ended it: on Saturday he was visiting his mom, and I receive a text from her, asking how I am, and when I ask her what she thinks of the situation, she says that giving him space does not mean it won’t be fixable. We are close, but I also feel like that advice wouldn’t have been given if it was truly over.

Let's say the attraction is gone. Would you go back out of pity? (I am talking about marriages and LTR s that involve children and other things.)

I sent the guy I was seeing this bc he has been acting differently and not really being as attentive like before. I also felt like he was avoiding me and just pushed me away a lot. He told me he loved me a lot and then ghosted me for 3 days because he was “sick.” But he was actively on social media
