This is not actually my story, but I heard of a friend
of a friend who broke up twice with someone before getting
married to that person. However, it is too soon to tell
if they will last.
I also know of another friend of a friend who has broken
up with her boyfriend at least four times that I know of.
My actual estimation is that they have broken up twice that
many times for very short periods of time.
I don't know whether some people just have to go through
it over and over again before they quit, or whether the
coming back is a sign of things slowly getting better.
Yes, I believe moving forward with the same person is possible,
even though all of you say it is impossible, and this
was my own question. =) Maybe it is one in a million.
Or one in a thousand. That relationship would be one in
a million for the two people to find each other again.
