Which is more devestating? Breaking up with a boyfriend/girlfriend, or getting rejected whom you really love?

I think both because if you love your boy/girlfriend and breakup, it hurts even more.

Umm....breaking up with girlfriend is not, assuming I break up with her for a good reason.

So getting rejected by the one I love.

Getting rejected from who you really love.

 

You can date anybody, break up, get over it and move on. But if you really really loved them, it would obviously hurt more if they rejected you regardless if you ever went out or not.

It depends. I mean when you say breaking up with your girlfriend/boyfriend do you mean that you dump them or do they dump you? Because if you dump your girlfriend/boyfriend there is generally a reason(s) behind it, in which case getting rejected hurts more. But if your girlfriend/boyfriend dumps you(especially if it's sudden/random) then breaking up is worse

Depends on the reason for the breakup.

And depends on the reason for rejection.

getting rejected from whom you love i'd say

Breaking up with your girlfriend/boyfriend. If you loved her and were with her long than I say that is worse than If the one you loved most rejected you.

breaking up with your boy/girlfriend

Rejected by whom you love

Getting rejected by the one you love, whether it's being dumped, or being turned down when you ask them out or tell them you love them. If you're the one doing the rejecting (e.g. initiating a break-up), then it can still be really painful, but you can also get over it a lot more easily.

I've dated before so, to be perfectly honest, breaking up isn't a huge deal. I've never actually loved anyone I've gone out with. So I'll go with getting rejected.

I think that being rejected by whom you love is worst.

 

If you break up, sometimes you'll be sad, but with time, it'll get better.

 

But being rejected isn't like that.

 

Both are painful, but I think the second one is more.

I disagree. Breaking up might get better, but it'll shape you for the rest of your life. Being rejected is a bitter pill to swallow, but you'll love again. Also, if you really love this person you'd want him/her to be happy, even if that means without you.

 

My answer might also have to do with my not believing in "the one" though.
