Well it is a question that is asked by a lot of people, and over the years the number is growing. The answer is decidedly simple: you allow these bonding processes to run their course and learn how to let go.

Sounds difficult?

It is. But look, no one promised that this would last forever. And it is not a smart thing to ask for the “Happily ever after” because they do not happen. People are not perpetually inclined towards a single state of mind, and mentalities do change with time, and alter with age. What looked great at twenty might not be great at thirty.

So what do you do when you realize you have hit that mark?

Well, for starters, learn to analyze the situation. Why do you want to give up on any relationship, so to speak? Is there a reason for you to break up which is not a temporary phase of mind? Remember to understand all the motives behind your idea of breaking up.

Then what you must remember is to understand what you want to leave. Consider the person involved here apart from you. Is the relationship truly over, or can you give it a second chance? You can always try to rejuvenate a broken or dead bond before giving it up. Try to make it a point to think through before going for the final break.

And finally, if it seems like it cannot be salvaged, walk away and do not look back or ponder further.
