Sometimes we realize that the people we love aren't good for us. You can love a person though they are not something that will be a positive effect on your life. It doesn't mean it's an easy choice or an easy path. It's going to take time, patience and a lot of courage. If you've decided to end a relationship, despite you, loving that person. You've made a wise choice.

Because the relationship is hurting one or both of us more than it's helping. My ex-girlfriend broke up with me ostensibly because I was a "burden" and she couldn't support me anymore, but she also knew she was abusing me, and the part of her that still loved me knew that she had to stop doing that.

There could be a lot of reasons as to why we breakup with someone that we love. I feel like we breakup with the one's that we love because we want for them to be happy and we feel like we may not be able to give them exactly what they need/deserve.

Sometimes they are simply not the right person. You lose interest and that love might fade and eventually lead into a break up. Love is a very fragile and often transient emotion.

We breakup with people we love for many reasons. They may no longer be the same person, personality wise, or we may recognize that, even tho there is love and its mutual, that sometimes relationships are to toxic to maintain sustainability. There are many factors to consider when deciding to end a relationship, and while love is a big factor, there are to many other factors to just focus on one. You can be in love, but unhappy. You can be in love, but disillusioned by infatuation. As the old adage goes, if you love something set it free, if it returns it was meant to be. As cliche a statement as that is, it holds true, even to the most basic forms of relationships.

Sometimes, even though we may really love someone, we realize we are not the best possible fit for them. We may lack compatibility in certain areas, or we may believe we are holding them back. Sometimes we work better as friends than in a relationship.

Sometimes it can become overwhelming to put the past behind us. For example, sometimes people have had enough and they want to move on. It could be anything from abuse to cheating to change in personality that could cause a breakup. Sometimes a couple may decide it's best for them to breakup and move on because of major obstacles that have come their way. But other times it could just be the past getting in the way because sometimes, some tragic events can be very hard to forget. It's very unfortunate for all this to happen, but I hope I answered your question :)
