Are Breakups 'In'?

It would appear this way with the amount of media coverage of stars live in the magazines these days!

Reading too much of this sort of stuff can lead to an unconscious path of "mucking" up your relationship so that you fit the "norm"... read on to find out more.

Looking at our 'role models' in Hollywood, we'd certainly think breakups have been in for ages! Even within our immediate surroundings we can call ourselves lucky if few people are splitting up or divorced. More and more people come from divorced families, and it seems the silver and golden anniversaries are dramatically decreasing because people simply do not reach that far anymore.

Breaking the addition to our (ex) partners

This is something I can relate to!! And it holds you back from moving on... so read the article below and see if you have a similar story and learn how to break free from your ex, once and for all!!

After all, no point carrying around that baggage, it only weights you down more!

Being 'addicted' to an ex partner has everything to do with familiarity. They have been there for probably enough time to get under your skin. You share jokes with each other, you may even share a language nobody else understands. You just have to look at each other and know what the other person is thinking. However, you just can't make the relationship work. Either you are still too different, have different goals in life, or other obstacles stand in your way.

Breakup Magazine - Breaking the Addiction to Our (Ex) Partner

So, what went wrong?

Ok, you're at the point where you are wondering just what part you played in the demise of your relationship.  Your partner didn't feel like letting you know why they left, same lame excuse about it being them, not you... how many times have I heard that before?!

It has to be said, and not being sexist here, but it has been my experience that males don't often give you a reason for the break up, so you don't really get any closure and it takes a while to figure out what went wrong and for you to learn... whereas us females tend to give the guy a blow by blow account of why we are leaving them!

When "the one" split up with me (for the second time I might add, should have seen it coming...) I honestly could not believe it.  He didn't give me any explanations, didn't say I did this wrong or that he didn't like this about me, just said that he didn't feel that way about me anymore... arrrgh, very annoying!!

But, after time, I began to look at the relationship and realised that I had had a part to play in the relationship breaking up.  The best way to look at is to sit down, pen and pad in hand and write down all the things that he used to complain about... and what you used to complain about to him.  You will start to see a clear picture start to emerge...

For me, I found that there quite a few areas we just didn't see eye to eye on, I was a little uptight when it came to certain things and he was more thoughtful than I was about certain things... in the end, I realised that it just would never have worked.  On top of that, I was actually quite independant and he wanted someone that was going to be at home when he got home, dinner all cooked!  Lets just say that cooking is not one of my strong points :-)

Anyway, the positive to take out of any relationship is to learn from the mistakes you made... ie, I learned that had I thought to think about him when it came to the little things, like getting myself a drink and not getting him one or thinking to organise dinner for him if I was going out, that sort of thing.  I can definitely say it was the little things we both missed that led to the demise of the relationship.  I wanted someone to spend quality time with me, his version of quality time together meant having all our friends over for a BBQ!

Does it still hurt?  You bet, but I can now stand back after 2 years and see that had we stayed together, it would only have been delaying the envitable.  He is now engaged and due to be married in a few months... I wish him happiness, even if I am a little sad, it could so easily have been me walking down that aisle... but that is life, and not the path I was meant to take.

So, once you have got through the painful parts of the break up and are sitting there trying to figure out just what went wrong, sit down, write it out and see what lessons you need to learn... otherwise you will keep repeating them in your next relationship!
