Can Broken Be Mended?

I have met a lot of people who have troubled relationships. Some survived from it and live happily ever after and some just don't make it to the end. So really, if your relationship is broken or damage can it be mended? Will it be alright after?

Sometimes, when a couple is in a troubled relationship and they are still in it trying to fix it and salvage the relationship for a long time, they live around the trouble, but is this worth it? A relationship based on problems. But having said there I know of couples who survives and come out stronger.

There are also those that just live through the trouble and it eventually kills off the relationship. I feel really sad seeing this as it drains so much energy from both parties and it doesn't work out eventually.

One of my friend have been together with this guy for quite a long time and they broke off due to one party cheating. It was resolved and they got back together eventually, so they fixed it right? But NO... it wasn't resolve because, the other party even though they got back together cannot make peace with the issue. So it keeps propping up and in the end resulting in them breaking-up for good. But I suppose they TRIED to salvage whatever's left of "love" in their relationship which here didn't work out after all.

The other thing also, it requires both parties to work on it. If one party is not willing or not longer want to work on it, I think its the end. Or what if someone fell out of love... I suppose that's the last straw isnt' it?

So how do you really know whether your troubled relationship can be mended? Maybe its better to walk away from it before it too late, instead of spending so much time and energy to finally lose in the end.

So here's the summary I make of

1. Trouble, survive, result STRONGER relationship
2. Trouble, fix it, doesn't resolve, but live with it
3. Trouble, fix it, doesn't resolve, break-up
4. Trouble, fix it, doesn't resolve, break-up, patch-up, break-up eventually
5. Trouble, live through it, kills slowly, good-bye...

So CAN BROKEN BE MENDED?

i believe it can be mended, and after being mended it can be stronger... it really depends on both parties if they want it to make it out or just wanna harping on the issue...

if a relationship is all so smooth sailing then the relationship is very weird... everything has ups and downs and only those makes the relationship more unique and more worthwhile to continue...

Broken can be mended... just depends on the responses from each side, and how the resolution is worked out.

well i think it depends on how broken is broken, and how both parties are putting effort in mending it...

I believe there are some broken-ness which cannot be mended, at least for me. But there are definitely small issues around in each relationship where if both parties are willing to put some effort, they could be resolved and mended...
