MODERATORS
It's a much bigger red flag if they hate everyone they've ever broken up with. That's just childish. So your shit didn't work out? Shake hands and walk along. They still have the good traits that made you consider them in the first place.
"And what's the common thread here?"
I find it very promising when someone I date, when they reflect on a past relationship, is willing to admit the mistakes they made which led to the breakup and highlight the positive steps they've taken to rectify those shortcomings to become a better person and not cause future partners the same hurt. Very sexy, that.
Exactly. There's a big difference between recognizing mistakes and projecting all failures on the other person.
Yea sure, but you don’t have to be close to them and still be friends. Just move on
No one said you had to. Straw man.
