Hey Pandas, What Is The Worst Way You’ve Been Broken Up With?

Since the first week of my current/last relationship, my girlfriend adopted the process of relationship cycling - ending our relationship whenever a problem arose and blaming everything on me. She often used events that happened after we broke up as her reasons for breaking up. Out of love, dedication and the suspicion that her mental health may not be as good as she claims it to be, I stuck by this girl. Throughout our entire relationship, any problem has caused her to leave me, with her telling me to never contact her again and blocking me on every channel of communication. This is then retracted by her telling me she loves me and 'didnt mean to leave me'. Communication is frustrating when you can't communicate. I have grown to not take my partner's word seriously and this has had detrimental effects upon our relationship. Ultimately, after experiencing a breakup at least once a month for over 12 months, I have been forced to confront her on the issue of relationship cycling and how we can get it out of our relationship. I tried prompting her to discuss it, with increasing frequency after she left me two weeks ago, only to be told 'dont ever contact me again'. For someone who wants an intense, trusting and passionate relationship, she doesn't seem to understand that hitting the reset button is something that pushes us apart and makes our lives very difficult. She has refused to talk about it at every opportunity. Are we together are we not? It's torture that nobody deserves. Ultimately, I will have to make my own decision, but it won't be in her favour.
