The time to break up with a partner or a long-term relationship is not a dish of good taste for anyone. At the moment of the breakup, a series of feelings and emotions suddenly appear that are quite difficult to handle. These kinds of emotions will vary according to the causes that have led to the breakup of the couple.

It is not the same, therefore, that the couple has broken up due to an infidelity than that it has ended due to the fact that there is no longer love. Apart from that, the feelings are not the same for the person who decides to end the relationship, that for the other that the end of the same is not expected.

Phases or stages in the process of breaking up a couple

Although every relationship is different, there are a series of stages What a person who breaks up with his lifelong partner usually goes through:

  • The first feeling that appears in the couple or in one of them is disappointment. This aspect causes both people to grow apart little by little, giving rise to emotions such as sadness, doubt or anger.
  • The second phase is known as the moment of shock. One of the two members of the couple decides to raise the separation and the other party goes into a state of shock when such a decision is not expected. Faced with this, the affected part of the couple can do everything possible so that it does not reach the extreme of the final break. You can go for help from family or friends or from a professional. If all this is inevitable, the person can gradually accept the situation and separate without problems.

  • Once the decision is accepted by both parties, there is a physical and emotional distancing. Feelings of doubt and pain appear at the fact of what will happen in the future. It is an especially complicated stage for both of them, especially in the case that there are children involved.
  • The next phase is to accept the breakup and begin to realize that the best solution was the breakup. Both people try to be positive as much as possible and try to rebuild their lives. The emotions of rage, anger or anger are giving way to more realistic ones.
  • The last stage is to create a new life and leave the old relationship in the past. There are people who do not get to this stage until after a few years, especially if they are not able to break with the past to which they have been attached for so long. You have to know how to look forward and know that the break is something that can occur in this life and is left behind forever.

Ultimately, the breakup of a couple is not an easy thing for anyone and it is important to lean on family and friends when it comes to getting through such a hard time. It is good to be positive and create new projects that help you enjoy life as much as possible.
