Mr. Taxi 1,095 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 I saw this on Orange Is the New Black. Let's say you just broke up with your significant other. And you find out that their mother or father died. What would you do? Would you stay with the person knowing that they are going through a difficult time? or Would you still leave him/her?

oppaarrr 4,601 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 I'll still support him til he feels better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
。Beach Angel 。 955 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 My significant other? Boyfriend? I'm not obligated to care for him. I would drop him without a second thought. His father and mother dying is not related to me, I didn't cause it. If we broke up, he either dumped me or I dumped him. If he dumped me, I wouldn't go crawling back to him.. that's pathetic... he's not that important. If I dumped him, then it's for a good reason and he'll only get worse. If the break up was mutual.....still....no thanks. Difficult time? Not my problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h0neanias 13,516 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 After we broke up? Depends. Did we break up on amicable terms? If so, and he wanted me to be there for him in some way, then yes, I might. Sometimes relationships just don't work; that doesn't mean you need to hate each other.

You're mean :( Anyways, for your Q, I'd stand by his side probably and be his friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xiaodery 2,194 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 well how could i stay with him when we already broke up? either way, it depends. if we broke up on amicable terms, then i'd stay. if he broke up with me, that probably means he doesn't want anything to do with me anymore so i won't. if i broke up with him i'd stay. meaning i'd offer him support, but that's it.

I just don't have a problem dropping people out of my life, if they're not family they're not important. Unless I was married to him, he is not family. I have priorities.

I just don't have a problem dropping people out of my life, if they're not family they're not important. Unless I was married to him, he is not family. I have priorities. Well, if you don't think a lover is a priority then don't "date". It's not nice playing with others' feelings or act as if you're a true lover when in reality you're just with him because...? I'm not talking about a andom guy you just met or w/e, but really person you have a real and serious relationship. whenever you have that he will be a priority- not necessarily the too one- and at least that's what he would view it as probably. But I think you're saying that because the first one you had was not what you expected and it's understandable you're saying this I guess. When you find a good one I'm sure you'll change how you see this ^^ I was joking when I said mean btw, lol Stay cold till you find the right one but don't hurt others on purpose c: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meems 229 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 You should take a step back. I apologize if I said sth wrong or that it has hurt you. I just meant to say that it's understandable for some to think like this but I really believe that once you love someone you'll change how you think because I was an ice once and I used to think kinda the same but now I've really changed. Sorry again :c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightMelancholy 550 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 If we were on good terms, I would support him as a friend. I would never come back to him because of pity. It would not be healthy or fair for both of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starlight 1,108 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 If we already broke up then I'm not going to get back together with them because of that. If we broke up on good terms then I'll support them through their hardships, but I'm not going to date them for a reason that has nothing to do with our relationship, it would just cause more pain in the future.

mayxalka 444 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 If I were Piper in that situation... I think I would have stayed with Alex. But I would move out of the shared apartment. Piper is such an annoying white girl. That was such a bitch move for her to just walk out like that. It was even sadder to see Alex hide her passport...

SchoolNote 6,178 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I wouldn't consider getting back together because we broke up for a reason. I will however do what is within my friend duties to comfort him during his grieving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
