Throwin in the towel

What made you give up your last relationship?

Maybe from hearing how other people's relationships went sour we can learn something about ourselves and the reflect on the realtionships we're in or had.

Cheers I'll post mine after a few posts

I wasn't the one that threw in the towel on my last relationship...but the reason I broke up with my first bf was because I wasn't getting what I wanted out of the relationship (it was like I was dating him AND his friends...and yah sure that's fun to hang out and all but sometimes you do need some one-on-one time) and I was also getting ready to start my first yr at college and really didn't want to be in a relationship going into college.

Last relationship, I didn't throw in the towel, she did. Long distance. Things were going fine for a while but then every day she grew more distant, she wouldn't admit to it but it was obvious. Eventually I got tired of it and said maybe we should cut it and be friends, so we did and we were for a short while, then she gave up on that too.

Probably the worst case of when I threw in the towel was my first g/f. She was just so damn innocent I couldn't take it. She didn't realize that the world isn't exactly Mr. Roger's neighborhood. She was raised in a small town and was never really exposed to the world, it wasn't her fault, but I just couldn't bear it anymore. I felt like I would corrupt her innocence.

I've only had one serious relationship and it wasn't me who ended it, but I finally agreed to it. We were together our whole senior year in high school and summer after and then only lasted about a month after he went off to college. It was due to long distance and I really don't think he wanted to have a gf going into college. Too many girls to be tempted by. Luckily it wasn't a bad breakup, somewhat mutual and we're still friends.

Yeah, it is. My goal, if possible, is to try to remain friends with all the guys I date, because if it didn't work out romantically, it's always nice to have another friend!

Well the thing about it is, is if you can see the person naked...then one day you don't want to see them naked anymore, why can't you see them clothed..

Hmmm...does being cheated on mean it's my fault or hers? She cheated and I kicked her out. I'd like to think I did the right thing.

I broke up with my last b/f because he could never put me first. Never. I don't expect much, but he always made me feel like I came last. First it was drugs, then his dog, then friends and I was somewhere after that. I don't think he was ready to be in a serious relationship. So after a year I called it quits.

Its not like I wanted to be #1 all the time, but I always felt like everything was more important than I was, even stupid sh!t

sounds like your in a healthy relationship then. Girls do need to be put first and some guys like putting their girl first (yours truly does) and well its ashame when people abuse eachother in a relationship.

Very true....I actually look back and it makes me mad....it also makes me really really mad when I see people who were in my same situation or similar. People think that they can't do any better and that what they have is the best they can get, I USE to think this way, but then once you wake up and take a look around, you realize that you deserve the best there is.

It took my 4 years wasted, 2 serious relationships, and a few dating flings....to find someone I know will make me happy for the rest of my life....but it was all worth it, good and bad, at least in my eyes.....if it meant having the outcome I have now.
