I think in situations like this it is best to let them go. It isn't healthy or fair to either person to have an on again off again relationship. Sometimes when we love someone the best thing to do is let them go, and that is a way of showing you love them. Because you want them to be happy not miserable. Sometimes people come into our life as a lesson, and not our forever and always. It is up to us to figure out the lesson. Just because you let go doesn't mean its goodbye forever. You two could stay close and in touch.but sometimes we are just simply meant for another soul. And that other soul fits ours better then anyone else ever could

It means that you're both holding on to something. It means you both know you aren't in a perfect relationship, but still trying your best to keep up your relationship together. It means you both love each other.

Sometimes relationships can be really complicated, especially when those involved do not know what they want from each other and from the relationship. Breaking up and getting back together over and over can cause emotional damage and permanently affect the level of trust in the relationship. When dealing on what to do about this situation, you and your partner should really sit down and talk about what you both are feeling. You need to consider each other's desires, goals, wishes, and needs, and think if you are both in the same page. Sometimes it is better to break up for good in order to avoid further emotinal scarring and confusion. It may be hard to accept, but in many situations, breaking up is the best thing to do.

Maybe it is time for a break between you two. Sometimes people are not meant to be together, and sometimes space helps that situation. Love always finds a way back if it is true, but if it is not then do not worry. Someone is out there for you

Honestly, I wouldn't know what to tell you about this because I am going through the same thing. Except it's usually always his choice to break things off. I still have no clue as to what I should do, because no matter what I still love him and he has put me through more than enough. I would suggest that you two figure out what it is that keeps you together and what keeps you apart. What caused the break up? Ask yourself those questions. Have a heart to heart conversation with your partner and let them know how you're feeling because in the long run it's only going to either get worse or put you under a lot of stress. Good luck!! :)

It sounds like this on-and-off relationship is becoming tiresome, which is reasonable--there seems to always be an issue between you and your partner, then you guys come up with a "solution,", and get back together. Being in a relationship makes it very, very hard to even think about the idea of never getting back together, thus continuing this cycle. It's all up to you about what you want to do with your relationship, but I'd say what matters at the end of the day in YOUR life is how you feel when you look in the mirror every morning and how happy you really are inside. Think about what qualities you want in a relationship. Relationships can't be perfect of course but remember that your own happiness should be the most important thing to consider,

Ask yourself whether or not you truly want to be with that person or if you are just scared to be alone, to start something new.

If you are continuously on and off then it's obvious that you don't need this person in life anymore. If they aren't going to stay with you then you don't need to stay with them. Find someone who will be there and not continuously leave and come back.
