Question

[firecat]

(inspired by a comment I made in jodawi's journal)

When you break up with someone, do you feel stupid?

As in "I should have known this would happen, why did I bother getting involved," or "I should have prevented what led to this breakup"?

(This is not about anything currently happening in my life.)

hmmm...

depends on the relationship. yeah, my last one before this one that i'm in now, the warning signs were HUGELY flashing in brilliantine colors by the third date, but i thought i could suck it up and deal. when it all fell apart, not only did i feel stupid, but i also felt some way-worse less-than-nice stuff, too.

what i hate even worse than feeling stupid after a breakup though, is when i'm in the middle of a relationship thinking, "god, am i stupid for staying in this relationship, or what?" this is usually *very* bad.

and no...i'm not feeling like this in my current relationship, but i have felt like that before.
