coming apart

It is always hard for relationships to come to an end. but the stages of coming apart hit the order on the head. First changing the topics from "we" to "I" or "you'', then the self disclosures become more at the surface and information and feelings get put away and nothing gets resolved, then comes stagnating. Now stagnating is hard for most people. I have been in this before where I just wait for that event to end and then call it off. Not doing the breaking up before the event because of the idea of trying to find someone else to go with or the idea that you may have to talk about the idea. I had a case at my twin brothers wedding. My girlfriend at the time was one of the bridesmaids and we could not really call off the idea. So we stayed together for two more weeks just for the sake of the wedding. She stayed for the wedding and everything that followed but it was hard for the both of us because we knew it maybe the last time. We both decide to avoid eachother for a while and see if we really wanted to seperate, Needless to say we never got to the terminating phase because the time apart made us see how we really felt for each other, we just needed that time to get away and figure stuff out on our own time.
