50 Singles Tell The Lesson They Learned About Love From Their Latest Breakup 

10. Go with your gut feeling at the beginning. If something is off, something is telling you it’s not quite right, even if they are a good person, listen.

I just had to break things off with my ex because while he’s a nice guy, we just weren’t compatible. It was a hard conversation to explain to someone that there’s nothing really wrong, you just don’t feel it.

11. My feelings are valid, having needs doesn’t mean you’re needy, and if your gut feels like something is wrong don’t let someone call you crazy.

And if someone cares enough about you they will be willing to accept their faults and work through issues, not immediately shut you out/break up with you.
