i guess this is more of a hypothetical question than anything.

i know of person A and person B who are dating. i know they deeply love each other. when A and B hooked up, A promised B that A would never hurt B and asked to take a chance on A, because B is a very wary person about love. B decides to do so. however, LDR takes a toll on them. now, person A isn't having a good time with A's life right now, and they squabble. nothing big.

person A misunderstands person B, and yells at B, and then goes away. person B goes 'wtf is going on here.' person A, the next day, says that A wants to break it off. A calls B to reaffirm this, and then, during said call, A realizes that A has "made a mistake" ... A begs B to take A back. now, B, remember, is scared of getting hurt. B doesn't know what to do.

A deeply loves B and promises that A will never leave B again, and will never hurt B again, but how can A guarantee this ? B deeply loves A, but fears that A is a fair-weather significant other (i.e., when things get rough, A wants to jump ship). A and B each know that there isn't another person they would want to marry, or spend their life with.

B wants to know what to do. i don't know how to make sense of this, which is why i would pose the question. what would you do, if you were B ?

I had to read that twice and sketch a diagram. http://discussanything.com/Ubb/wink.gif Doesn't sound too bad and may be worth hanging in there if there are specific improvements that are discussed and worked on.

In a perfect world all parties in a relationship are on the same wavelength, but it ain't perfect and misunderstandings and yelling is not enough reason to end a possibly promising relationship.

If it becomes a repeating pattern, then that is cause for concern.

That was WAY too complicated to follow. All I can say is the yelling part clued me in to a communication problem. Mature people need to learn to talk through issues not go off.

I'm not "always right", it just seems that way

Is A and B in a online relationship? Some things should be talked about in person and not on the phone....let us know more details if you can and we can help.

Well, you said both A and B DO love eachohter deeply...And that both know that the other DOES love them...

B must take another chance...plain and simple. For love...if you HONESTLY think you're in love, there is no chance/risk that is too great....

To quote the great philosopher Gomer Pyle...
"Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me".

I don't know, it is person A, or B...whoever....to decide, but one word of advice....if ANY person wants to bail ship the firs time things get rocky....let them go. My wife and I were happy together for 9-10 years...then as soon as we hit our first emotional hard time....she bails out....

That is a weak person if you ask me.....
