Have you ever given up on someone you were in a relationship with?

What happened?

Do you ever regret it?

I've never really 'given up' but rather decided that the whole thing wasn't going to end well at all.

I'm not the sort to give up unless it's an abusive relationship.
So..no, I haven't given up on someone.

Yes I do most of the time, I just figure Id rather be alone than deal with this (whatever "this" may be) Sometimes I look back and miss things and wonder what it would be like if had made a different choice. I dont usually regret it though.

I wouldn't so much call it "giving up"... to me as long as there is forward momentum towards working an issue out, then I can be patient, compassionate and really quite helpful. If someone absolutely refuses to admit an issue or a problem, and/or refuses to work on the issue or problem I will leave. I don't see that as giving up, it's more just the consequence of a choice the other person made.

I had to make that decision in a past relationship, and I do not regret it one bit.

I didn't give up,but i fled my first relationship a few years ago. We had nothing in common, she was controlling and a little unbalanced.

It's not in my personality to give up on anything - I may be discouraged and walk away from things that are stressing me, but I always go back to them.

But, if a partner was abusive I wouldn't see it as giving up, but bettering and protecting my life to leave.

I've never reached a point in my relationship where I stopped looking for avenues to deal with the issues at hand during that time, but I have walked away because the person refused to do the things I thought were necessary for our survival as a couple. It's not something I consider to be regrettable.
