You can't, if that's what they want its best to leave it at that but if they want that they shouldn't be worth your time

In such case, sometimes letting go is the best way we can save a relationship. If it is mend to be it will be yours for life. Moreover you can not make a person to love you, it should be from the heart :)

We can not control the decisions of others. If someone close to us needs to make a change in their life, we must allow them to, even if it is painful. I encourage you to express your emotions to them and share how you feel about the change they are prompting but ultimately, they may still be firm in their decision. Ensure you are taking care of yourself and have a solid support system in place for you to help you through this tough transition.

I used to think you could change their mind, but you really can't. If they really want to break up, that's it. I'm really sorry, but that's how it is.

First of all, you should ask yourself if the relationship is worth. If you think it is, maybe you could settle up for a good conversation explaining how you feel, what are the possibilities you both can work out together to make all the negative things turn up right. Mutual understanding is important as well as communication when it comes to this part. However if the relationship is not worth, maybe you should consider the factor what would you like for a change at this particular moment? Do you want to continue being hurt? I'm sure many of you don't want too because as a person no one deserves to be treated this way and surely deserves something meaningful and right and worthy. There's a favorite quote that I love "Pain is a part of life and love, it helps us grows". You need to accept the pain and learn to let go. Take out the positive side and grasp a new breath to life! Maybe something better is out there for you! Lots of love and care! Hope that helps (:

Speak to them find out what is the reasoning behind their urge to break up, this way I can fully understand how they feel which makes it easier to discuss matters and possibly clear up any misunderstood information. after clearing the air of any miscommunication, if there was any ill treatment or wrong doing on my behalf a truly heartfelt apology can work wonders. If these don't seem to work at first then I would give them a bit of space to clear their minds calm their hearts and think about what I've said in my apology and how i would have cleared up any misinformation then speak to them again starting the conversation very light and avoiding any heavy emotional conversation unless they bring it up.

You can never make anyone change their mind, but you can remind them of why you're together in the first place.

It's not your job to change their mind. If they want to break up, its their choice. If they wanted to be with you, they would stay

Do you really want to change their mind? There must be a reason why he/she wants to break up. Try to find out why you relationship is struggling and talk to your partner about ways to improve things. Sometimes there are little things that irritate your partner and when they sum up it might be hard to find a way back to look at the person you fell in love with.
