Amelie1980 Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 What say you on third chances? My friend had his gf break up with him for a second time last year. I think they are friends again at least. The relationship is very dysfunctional. Has anyone really had a third chance? Link to post Share on other sites
zyketti Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I'm not speaking from experience, because my ex and I broke up for the second time a month ago. But our first breakup only lasted about a day and half. Kind of like a mini-breakup, if you will. While we did pinpoint few problems, it wasn't enough to really look down and figure out all of the problems we were having. 1.5 days isn't enough to really narrow everything down, and also to fix them. So I guess what I am saying is, if in the first breakup, you guys had a considerable amount of time to work on your issues and got back together, but it STILL led to a second breakup, I am not sure if a third chance is a good idea. Perhaps it's just that they were not meant to be. But I have seen couples breakup multiple of times, and yet, still get back together to get married so... Anything can happen I guess.

No Limit Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 If one of both is naive enough, yes, then there are third chances. Maybe even fourth. And fifth. And sometimes even sixth. But as soon as it turns into on-and-off, the relationship won't be one to last. One of the two parties involved will eventually grow tired of it. Link to post Share on other sites
mangetout Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Really depends if the problems in the old relationship hasn't been resolved.Or neither partners have changed. It will only be a matter of time and the relationship will most likely break up again Link to post Share on other sites
Author Amelie1980 Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 I know she has depression...chronic. that wont change. I don't know why they broke up first time but it was something completely different to the secobd time. Second time seemed to ve as he was unhappy at work. My feeling is this....if they broke up on 2 occasions for different reasons then they did not try to resolve it and it was a breaking point. IMO they are not right for each other if they cant even work oyt job issues. A third time won't work. Link to post Share on other sites
