Relationships, especially romantic ones are tough.
If I could of pointed the compass in the right direction, in my romantic relationships in the past, I would of. Unhealthy patterns were noticed, but it would of taken both of us to point this compass and it would have to be wholeheartedly towards healing, with complete desire on our part to encounter the unexpected and the deep rooted pain. This is quite rare and I do agree with you that society's view towards relationships and ending them can be quite toxic. I've also been the one who refused to point this compass at times. It seems as humans, we have a tendency towards leaving things broken.
Failing this, I've learned that closure is incredibly important. That closure is a form of honouring and respecting the time and love we shared with someone. Losing a relationship is painful, but losing a relationship without the closure that both or one of the parties need and deserve (providing they haven't acted too out of line), adds a whole new dimension of pain and can add a lot of meaninglessness to the relationship as a whole.
I wish you all the best pat, I really do, my heart goes out to you.
