What Really Makes Break-ups Painful? by davidmark4naija: 12:22am On Jan 17, 2016
Break-ups are usually painful no doubt. But I would like to know, wot is it dat makes breakups painful:

Is it the feeling of being rejected by someone you love genuinely,

or

Is it the feeling of being dumped by your lover after sharing your body with him/her?

Which kind of break-up is more painful, a break-up from a no-sex relationship, or a break-up from an "sexfull" relationship?wink

Does the length of the relationship determine how painful the breakup will be? If yes, does the factor of sex or no-sex increase or reduce the pain?

Or is it the pain that comes when you add up "all" you have invested in the relationship?

House, pls lets rub minds togeda...

Breakups are painful mainly because we open up ourselves up so easily to another. We have sex and then release all those 'feel good' chemicals such as oxytocin and endorphins. The same stuff in cocaine and such 'recreational' drugs.

If we go ahead and 1. guard our hearts 2. keep it zipped; perhaps we can start to eliminate the chemical bombardment and its neural re-wiring of our brain networks that ultimately leaves us 'pained' when it all comes crashing down.

What makes breakups painful? Blame it on 25% biology, 25% neuro-psyche and 50% human mind.

Love can be addictive, why not? it's same chemical and neural pathway that fuels addiction.

It's no different than cocaine addict or alcoholic addict suffering from withdrawals.

The pain of breakups are like withdrawals symptoms. Perhaps, we ought to start treating falling in love as a potential addictive drug.

As such, we can begin to see breakups as potential detriments to our whole being and others just as drugs can be.

As such, maybe we can start falling in love slowly and cautiously. We can be hesitant to engage in sexual co-mingling prematurely.

Perhaps we should have "heartbreak anonymous" groups for those suffering from breakup heartbreaks.

Xia: Hi. I am Xia- I suffer from pain from heart break. I feel like i can't live anymore. I am depressed, lonely and hopeless.
Group: Hi xia, welcome to the group.

Re: What Really Makes Break-ups Painful? by Nobody: 1:14am On Jan 19, 2016
Um. I think it depends on the feelings shared when the relationship was going on. "Sexless" relationships can be even just as hard to get over, after breaking up.

I can't rly imagine sha, but when you have someone that u like and get along with so well, losing them or ending that relationship; is always going to be a "vewi painful sumtin"

Fortunately, I have never been heartbroken in a relationship. Dunno how it feels.

Using this medium to tender an unreserved apology to the guys I have broken their hearts, I am sorry, so, so sorry.

The feeling of being attached and being unattached. You feel like you lost your best friend. Sex or no sex, they both hurt.
