EGO, is the most of the times reson for breaking up of the relation... If one is not able to control then one has to search for other as it directly hurts the self respect of other...

I completely disagree. A relationship ends when a relationship is not long happy, healthy or productive. Unless you're implying that ego is what makes one want to be happy and that if one were to put aside their pride then they should simply suffer in misery for the rest of their lives, but I think that is a stretch not to mention absurd.

Well if a relation is not happy, then there must be one or the other reason and its not like tha u cant' get rid of that reason which is creating a problm in ur healthy life... and y u cant remove that particular reason must be related to the ego of the person.... somewhat it is related...

"Ego" subsists in all of us but they show the specificity of each of our inner ... when we are encouraged to feel with all clarity that we are good, beautiful, smart, that we have the goods, the things of joy, love, everything arsenal stemming from feelings of thanksgiving, of reconciliation with ourselves, the perfect osmosis with good ... just at that moment triumphant egotism, and pushes to the surface a series of subliminal feelings, because, as I have always said, good and evil coexist, in the same way they do and feelings. "Ego" coarse feed our inclination to overestimate our action, personal values??, interests so we can get to enhance the performance of living in peace with violence itself. Some of us in our moments of glory hungry try a concern over their ego, making him an exacerbated and idealistic in a cult, which it can rise to the rank of the center of the universe, this is just the engine, which puts into operation with more viable, jealousy on the ground.

The greatest reason to end a relationship. If someone, or both parties have an ego in a relationship, then that can easily end a relationship.

Ego and pride can end a relation. One's pride and ego can make the problem or a certain issue lead to something deeper and unresolved. When one cannot control his emotions and burst out because of pride can trigger the emotion of the other and hurt his/her feelings. Such situation when not being dealt with as they occur will accumulate.

it is one of the reasons why a relationship doesn't last. its very common that people doesn't want their ego stepped on by their partner. but its very sad that since you wanted to be in a relationship you should be able to know how to give in your partner and not think of yourself...

Ego is always in the center of a relationship. if one ego is bigger than another, the relationship will suffer. the bigger ego oftens breaks off the relationship first.

Ego can be the destruction in any relationship. We have to love our selves as well a love the other person enough to understand that pride and high ego will destruct it We must separate The Ego part in order to love. By doing so we then love ourselves just as much. I believe to a certain extent we are all egotistic, so acknowledging it as a flaw cultivates and maintains a wonderful relationship.

In a relationship, who's the one being more concerned about their ego? It's mostly man. They want to take charge of everything and they don't like to admit their mistakes or they can't take it lying down of being ridiculed by friends. That's when man will try something funny, just to prove to their friends, but hurting us, women to fill up the big hole in their ego. Women do have ego as well, but they don't see it as important as man, because when women loves, they truly love with all their heart.

I don't know what to say about ego being the main reason of splitting up, there are other reasons too and the importance of one over another depends from relationship to relationship, from person to person. ego is just one of them

Yeah. I like to agree with you. There's too much pride there. There's no balance in the mind that's why they decided they can end it without shedding a tear. Where did superego go then? Why can't they swallow pride. I just had my heartbroken that's why I am sensitive about this discussion. I can see it in his eyes that pride conquered his soul.
