Perfect therapy for people who need help. I would like to say, I never can imagine it could be possible to heal people like that

Every relationship is different, so whether or not that's "usual" is a little hard to answer. But that is more turbulence than I would expect to see in a mature, healthy relationship. To an extent it depends on the conditions under which you're breaking up--are you having huge fights and you deal with them by breaking up? Are you breaking up because you're incompatible but getting back together because you have trouble letting go of the relationship? It also depends on your age--I would say this is probably more common among teenagers than adults who have more dating experience.

I think it depends on the situation. I think the better question to ask is why are the breakups occurring, is there toxic components to the relationship, what is the reason for getting back together, and is there a future seen with the other person.

That's a great question. It sounds like you've been going through some rocky times together which is hard. I can feel you there. If it is healthy and feels right to you, then it is totally okay. It doesn't matter what is normal, but what feels right for you and your partner. If you are healthy and happy and so are they: you are in the clear!

Sometimes people think that having a fall out with your significant other every once in a while is okay, but for it to be happening on the daily basis is usually a sign that something is wrong or someone in the relationship wants certain things to change. If you both agree that yelling at each other for an example needs to come to a halt that seems to be okay as long as both parties participate in this. For someone to break up 2 times in a 2 month period seems to me that something isn’t okay, whether it is emotionally connected or physically connected
