Why does breaking up hurt so much?

Break up with someone hurts a lot because we believe that the person we were would be forever our love, but it turned out that this has changed over time. Pain is more the lack of someone reliable, and always together than the person

breaking up hurts so much because of the emotions time and money that you have invested in that person.. it makes you feel like you have lost something precious..

maybe because you have been with someone for a longtime and not only have spent time but emotions too...it does hurt when someone breaks a relation

Because you're letting go of someone that means a lot to you. Dont worry. the pain will end in time. It'll be okay. Its a part of life. Everyone goes through it. You'll get through this.

Change is difficulty regardless of the context in which it occurs. We are primarily creatures of habit. When you couple this sudden and unexpected change with the emotional trauma of feeling like we aren't good enough, it can be devastating.

Because it's a person you care about and suddenly a part of the relationship is going wrong. It's basically because you start to care about the other person.

You just never know what’s around the corner, and you can’t hold the hand of who you’re supposed to be with until you let go of the hand you’re currently holding. There’s good in every situation, and in order to get through a tough break up and on to the next chapter in your life, you have to appreciate that what you had may have been good, but something better is on its way, and you’re a stronger person now because of what you’ve been through.

because you cared deeply about the person and the relationship. your not alone in feeling this way and we all are hurt by a breakup. connect with myself or fellow listeners on here to discuss it.

In relationships you care a lot about the person and when they give you a reason to break up with them for example cheating. They have broken your trust and trust, once broken is not easy to gain back especially when you trusted the person with your heart.

I think when you get physical with someone your souls link up at some level, besides that you just kinda get used to them. They appreciate and affirm you, you always have someone to hang out with, the feeling of aloneness that kinda makes us human diminishes for a little while. It's tough.

Because you got use to being around/talking to that person that when you have to break the habit of doing so it's emotionally tiring because you were mentally attached to that person.

When we love someone.. We unknowingly become dependent on him or her.. Our life just revolve around them.. They become our first priority ..when that person left us..life become meaningless..emptiness.. Loneliness.. Give us pain and hurt.

When you have feelings for someone, losing them is like losing a part of yourself. Grieving the loss is an important part of healing before you can move on.

Because we give a little piece of ourselves to them. It is perfectly normal to feel hurt when you lose someone you love :)

Because you entrust everything to that one person... You feel safe and you let your guard down easily... And you lose a lot. I'm sorry for anyone that goes through a break up.

Break ups hurt so much because you spent a chunk of your life where someone was your everything. Break ups suck for both parties depending on how bad the break up was and its not easy to start a life without someone who was such a large part of it.

Its not only the emotions that follow after breaking up, but the feeling of loneliness. This, ofcourse, is even worse when you are not the one that left.

Typically in longer term relationships we develop what are called "soul ties" this can be either because of the closeness we have developed throughout this relationship or due to the relationship being of a sexual nature, we have bound ourselves to that person. Imagine this if you tied a rope around your waist and the person you were dating and the two of you tried to walk in opposite directions, it wouldn't work because you are still bound to each other. In relationships we give a part of ourselves to that person whether big or small. In a breakup we have to find a way to unbind ourselves from the person.

Because you became fond of that person. And it's ok to feel close to someone! Although breakups then are hard. Sorry you're having a bad time. You'll get through this!

It hurts so much because you love them and devoted so much time to that person and that relationship that when it ended it was painful to lose that person as a boyfriend/girlfriend. Over time the pain with stop.

Because it means you have to let go of the person you most enjoy being with, someone you were attached to. You know you will have to let go of the good memories and the bad that made you grow into what you are now.

because you fall in Love, and one you get that great feeling of been loved you instantly become attracted to that people. when they go out of the blue it hurts because of how close you once wear and the chemistry

Your other half leaving you is always the last thing on your mind, so when it happens, you're bound to be devastated

Because people get's attached to each other, and it's hard to let go a person who you have been long time with.

When we feel absolutely devastated by a relationship coming to an end, we should ask ourselves a serious question: “What are we really losing?” Admittedly, one of the most painful things in life is loss, and losing contact with someone we love can be heartbreaking. However, many people decide to call it quits after months or even years of emotional estrangement and physical distance. Then, why is it that couples who rarely show affection or who barely relate often feel panicked at the loss of their partner? Or why is it that a person, who is on the verge of ending a relationship that they are unhappy in, feels desperate and abandoned when their partner chooses to end the relationship first? The overwhelming, emotionally shattering sense of loss that we experience at the end of a relationship is often the result of our having created a “fantasy bond“ with our partner. A fantasy bond is a term to describe an imagined connection a person develops to another person, thereby creating an illusion of security or false sense of safety.

Because you just left a person you loved very much and it's difficult to forget someone that gave you so much to remember. But you'll get over it!

It hurts because we lose the person we love so much. It hurts cause it was something real, something that really mattered to you. And your heart hurts because of it

You're used to being connected to this person intimately. You're used to have them around, likely daily and maybe even hourly. You care for them, and since they're gone it hurts, even more when you love them. It means you're human and have the capacity to love.

Breakups are just so common these days...they don't even matter to a few. But for those whom it does its just true love thats hurting you. But that doesn't mean the end of your life. There's soo much more to our life. Look around and you find love everywhere....from your parents, your sibblings, your bestfriend and your friends. Just because you broke up with one person doesn't mean all your relationships are gone or thats the end of your world. People oftensay i feel miserabke. Instead try using the words strong and beautiful, positive words have amazing power. Lastly i would just ask you one question dear, Ever wondered why sunsets are more coulorful and beautiful than sunrises? You know why, because sometimes good things happen in goodbyes 😊

Breaking up hurts so much because we lose things that we greatly rely on in our daily lives. We lose the acceptance we once had from our partner, We also lose the security we once had. Loneliness is something that can greatly impact how we live.
