Why do people break up and return?

Sometimes you just want to send them a guide to a smarter breakup. But maybe those wishy-washy romantics are onto something: Approximately 50 percent of couples get back together again after breaking up, and a new study suggests that the reason is that they were ambivalent about breaking up in the first place.

What is the point of a breakup?

Its what a breakup is all about. Its about giving yourself time to be self-interested. Thats why it happens. A breakup happens so you can become more deeply involved with your own heart.
