whenever I see or hear people breaking up after being together for so many years, (not because of infidelity) I wonder what red flags or signs didn’t they notice that they now see years later, or signs they ignored (one wants kids, one doesn’t, things like that? maybe they thought they would change and they didn’t?). that seems like so many years to be together to in the end just realize it didn’t work? how do you finally pull the trigger if there isn’t a catastrophic event that ends the relationship? how does it feel to end a relationship after that long? what part of you feels like it would be easier to stay in it than leave at that point? I just get curious!
