I broke off an 8 month long relationship 2 weeks ago. She suffered from depression problems, which in and of itself wasn't an issue, but her insistence on periodic bouts of partying that counteracted her medication was. It was like a rollercoaster ride and I opted out...shame too, because she has an amazing capacity for inner beauty that remains unrealized, or rather regularly stifled.

As for the discussion of exes, I never ask but if a woman wants to share about those things I usually remain keenly observant. It's been my experience that if a woman has had an abundance of abusive relationships she usually won't have any idea of what to do when confronted with reasonable, adult behavior.

Lost all respect for her. 7 years...told her over and over and she never listened.

she was too married to her job for a healthy relationship to take place. nothing against her, she was a great person (when she could let go)...she was just caught up in a profession that took all her attention away from her "real life"

the breaking point was when she started to relate to others outside of her working circle as just another pawn to achieve a goal.

That's a relationship-killer fairly often...

I broke up with the last woman because she refused to give fellatio. Sounds silly, I know, but i will have none of that.

My last breakup was a FWB of two years. She finally met a great guy only 20 years older than her (10 years younger than me). We went out to dinner with them a few weeks ago, and think they make a great couple. I'm very happy for her.

The breakup before that was a long time ago, and mostly failed because of problems overcoming distance (8000 miles) - neither of us could move because of circumstances that developed after we'd met.

I didn't, he broke up with me, presumably due to the increasing logistical difficulties of keeping your girlfriend of five years from knowing about the girl you're messing around with at work.
