for me , maybe because they still havent accepted the truth that the relationship just ended or they are still hurting or in pain because they still love their ex partner or maybe because they failed. what do you think?????can you share your viewsssssssssssssss

when people have to over an ended relationship, he will feel sas as he didn't get this relationship forever. though he might be hurt by this relationship,but he could not forget the happiness he gain from this relationship and when he think he will never get this again, he will be sad.

I think its because, they still love them, and the memories make them not to forget everything happen. Its hard to forget or give up the person that gives meaning to your life even if he makes you cry.

I agree that after a relationship ends that sometimes one is still in love with the other and just can't let it go. I also agree that some people don't like to fail at anything. I think another thing could be the loss of what is familiar. It is like a habit that you just can't let go of.

it's a lot of things...it can be because there's no real closure, or the relationship ended in a bad manner. It could be a feeling of regret for a relationship that did not end the way that they planned it to be. I think that if you loved and cared for the person, it's not unusual to feel bitter and sad. It's part of the healing process.

I think maybe people do not really forget or give up the past love.Maybe they have a unforgetalbe relationship,which brings too much happiness to them.Of course,maybe they end their relationship not because of love disappeared but another reason such as stress from family.So they are bitter.

i agree. letting go and moving on takes time, you can't just accept the truth right away. and it still hurts when you look back and see the big difference, and the result of the relationship you were once part of. and because love is still there. it's not easy to face the truth, it takes alot of courage.
