Establish why they want to break up with you to begin with, and see if those reasons can be addressed and worked on together.

Recognising their autonomy as an individual is important, in fact this is important if you you want to foster any kind of relationship with anyone. If they decide to break-up with you it might because they see it as a decision that best "fits" the circumstance. We all love being in control of situations, however, at times, there are things that are beyond our control. Accepting this might reduce the scale at which the effects of your boyfriend or girlfriend's decision has on you.

Try to talk to them about it. Find out what had happened for them to feel that this is the right option.

just dont MAKE him/her change their mind, just try to tell him/her that u love him/her, that if you both try, the relationship can work out, its hard but its better than let him/her go. sometimes you gotta do your best for your love one, and this is one of those moments. talk and try.

At first I don't think so... if someone is lacking interest in you can stay with you for much long... But Still... Try to mend up things.. try to do what they love to keeping aside your interests Only for a while But beware! If it continues still then they are not ryt choice to be with.

If your boyfriend or girlfriend wants to break up with you, you must consider why would you want to change their mind? Why be with someone who does not want to be with you. Each of us deserve someone who loves and cares for us and actually wants to be with us.

For whatever reason they wish to break up with you is on them. In my experience, there's no guarantee that you can change their mind 100% but it's definitely not impossible. If there's any problems in a relationship then it's probably best to talk it out face to face and see how you both can resolve this situation. But be open about it and get ready to hear answers you'll probably don't want to hear, and get ready to save your relationship.

First understand that what makes him/her willing to break up with you . Then accept the problems he/she is facing and talk how can you both come over it . And if he/she still wants to respect then respect the decesion .

You can't. You have to accept it. Do not make empty promises. That will only worsen the situation.

You can ask them why they want to break up and if possible change the things that are an issue. This does not guarantee that their mind will be changed. You could also ask yourself if you want to be with somebody that does not want to be with you.
