I know some people who will ride love until the last wheel falls off, even though the other wheels fell off a long time ago. My mother did it with both husbands. My sister did it with both husbands. I have friends doing that with their girlfriends or wives or husbands. Some of you know my story: for me it was over with my ex when she, a Christian, went to Houston to see her father who was ill, and she returned 6 weeks later (after he passed away) a devout Muslim, wearing what Bill Maher calls, a bee-keeper suit, showing only her mouth, eyes, and hands. We're still close, and we tried to maintain the relationship for a minute, but knowing how I felt, we both knew it was over the minute I saw her wrapped in material from head to toe (which, alone should be a crime, because she was too beautiful to be covered up). And just 6 weeks earlier, I thought she was the one.
So, regarding your past relationships how did you know when it was really over ?
