ok, im a bit tired of hearing about the same things on this forum over and over again so i thought id do something a little different.

What do you all feel is the best way to totally screw up a relationship? It doesnt even have to be the best way to screw it up, just things that you know will make it so it wont last. ex.: lying and not trusting each other, not communicating, etc.

Cheating or being a ahole/jerk.
.......not that I would know.

Well, I guess cheating is something, lying, abuse? I dunno...

losing someone's trust and lying are the biggest issues...for a break up

being disrespectful can cause break ups, and being two faced.

i hate people who are two faced

cheating. or liars
i hate liars.

saying to their face how much you hate them. talking behind their backs and telling the person you talked to to tell the person what you said. being mean. hitting, kicking, smacking, threatening. just stop talking to them.

abuse, most definitely. and cheating/ lying. or just being an all around jerk.

messing with other guys(or girls) right in front of them.

Heres one that a lot of people dont think about. Over analyzing can kill a relationship. calling everyday asking if someone is mad, or why do you love me, or do you think we will last. then if they dont neccesarily give the answer you expect, fights come out of it. I know, cuz I used to do it. Not intentionally, I just had really low self esteem and thought everyone liked me cuz they felt sorry for me. So yeah. Thats a great way to lose someone.</sarcasm>

Cheat and lie and you're all set!

1. cheat
2. ignore
3. cause drama

hmmm...maybe cheating on yur bf/gf?

cheating.

Becoming very unfreindly an stuff.

Getting you pregnant than suddenly leaving.

dying. lol, that owuld screw it up

Act as if their your worst enemy and flirt with other girls/guys in front of their face i guess.

well.. for me... the number 1 reason is when the person you like start trying to be cool or start showing off because they think they can fit in with the "cool" people now.

Cheat/flirt with other girls/guys.
Or if you want something from my experience... ASKING SO MANY DAMN QUESTIONS AND GETTING MAD WHENEVER YOU DON'T ANSWER ONE!!!
hmph...

break off plans
flirting with other girls / guys
cheating
lying
getting mad easily
bossy

Losing trust. That encompasses cheating, lying, ect. because they all have to do with a person's trust in you to stay true to them.

Not talking to them is the worst lol while ur around them and u dont talk to them it makes him/her so mad and then they ask why are you not talking to me or answering me saying"Just dont wanna talk to u"Makes them real mad or rude comments about everything they gotta say etc

-->not doing anything... like never going anywhere together...
--->cheating
-->accusing the other person of cheating
--->Being over protective.
-->Not TALKING to eachother. ((my friend did that with her ex.. heh))
--->And just using common since..

that should be ittt... expcially the last one

<3333

I would have to say lying.. And being caught too

never had a bf but i can answer this talking about me and one of my really really close guy friends...

we used to be really close...almost like brother and sister

and what messed it up was dishonesty i think ... and he was acting like an ahole, i was acting like a bitch. to sum it up. *sigh*

i really miss him as a friend though...we still talk occasionally but spend more time yelling at each other

although in a bf/gf relationship, basically the same thing. disloyalty; dishonesty. cheating; being an ahole/bitch.

well everyones answer seem to be cheating....that would do it.
but i would also have to agree with some others and say....
abuse
lying
ignorance
avoidance
things like that

^ ignorance isn't really a big deal.... IMO

But I find that, breaking the trust, cheating, you know, the gist. Its what screws up a relationship.

dieing!!! :)

Losing trust, cheating, lying....that's all I can think of really....

Cheating, lying.
I guess so.

what? you don't like ppl who use common sense? uhhh, why not?

cheating and lying
like most people said.

cheating or lying.. ugh i hate liars!!

cheating
fighting alot
leaving them out / ignoring them
flirting in their face on purpose and making them jealous every second.

talkin shit behind their backs and acting like u never did. =) or just go up on theiir face . =)

cheating on them with their best friend

throw pie at their face
hahaha...!
actually annoy them so much that they couldn't stand you

being insecure. ex..

girl: do you love me?
guy: yes.
girl: are you sure?
guy: yes.
girl: really?!?!
guy: yes.
girl: wait say that again.
guy: yes.

you get the point.

AND behind their backs.


-cheating
-lying
-ignoring
-cold
-mean

and a whole bunch of stuff that i can name.. but those are .. i think.. the main ones.

Lie. Cheat. Steal.

Cheating & perhaps completely shutting the person out of your life.

Best way or worst way? I'm not entirely sure what you mean.
How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, despite how bad it was, do everything in that movie to drive him away.

This is right. I would have to agree with you on that one. That and not paying attention when they are trying to bring up something that seems important to them at the time they are trying to discuss it. Or you have the feeling that you have to compete for their attention when they come to visit.

i'd have to say loosing trust. its the biggest one and under it goes cheating and all that.
oh and ignorance.
thats what broke up my two relationships.

cheating or abuse..

All those are 'good' ways, but they are symptoms, not causes. I'd say the supreme cause is poor communication-that is: insincerity, dishonesty, not being forthright (bringing up something that's bothering you rather than waiting to be asked what's bothering you) and nagging.

Think about it.

If someone cheats on you, the problem is they were unsatisfied for some reason, or they had an impulse they were unwilling to let you know about and they acted on it. Prevention:
--'Sweetie, I've been feeling attracted to X'
Sweetie: 'Why is that?'
--'Because she/he seems mysterious.'
Sweetie: 'Well, what do you think might add some mystery to our relationship, roleplaying? frequency? positions?'
--'Hmmm, roleplaying sounds interesting, let's talk about that.' Conversation proceeds from there, situation averted.

If someone abuses you, the problem can be that they have emotional damage from a previous relationship. However, this should never escalate to physical violence, emotional and verbal violence is bad enough. When a relationship reaches the stage when the two involved cannot discuss an issue or problem reasonably and respectfully, then it is time to talk about why, and if that doesn't happen, then time to terminate the relationship.

And so on and so on.

lack of communication definately.

Cheating is a way, but I don't think that appropriate. Just tell it straight to them, "I don't want to be with you anymore." It depends also, how much you hate them.

lying is probably number one. and then if your boyfriend or girlfriend suspects something...and that shows they dont trust you. that screws up everything.

Mistrust, not communicating, abuse, etc...

always seem bored around them. i hate that lol =(

Cheating or don't have feelings for them no more. or you ain't ready for it.

The best way to screw a relationship up is to sleep with her best friend, or in my ex's case, her twin sister. Did I do it? No, I'm not that kind of person. But my ex's twin sister came onto me about a dozen times and I respectfully pushed her away. Still, if I had done that, I would've thrown 2 years down the tubes.

At least I'd be keeping it "all in the family."
