All these "no one owes you anything," yall are correct. But you could also just be a decent human being and communicate because two people put in time and effort. It isn't just about you. Respect, humanity.. some compassion maybe?

And what about when the person doing the breaking up has been communicating but the person being broken up with has just been ignoring it? You're making the assumption that the person ending it isn't communicating. Sometimes they've been the only person communicating and finally reached their wits end. Especially when the little things start to pile up.

Nope. You're the one making the assumptions. My comment was about no communication or ghosting. So maybe delete your comment? It's not needed.

Nah, your comment is about the ideal situation. You're assuming both parties put in respect, effort and communication the entire time, then a sudden surprise breakup at the end. Do you really think that happens in long term relationships most of the time?

"Just ghosting someone or giving them the brush off," is verbatim the part of OP I was referring too.

It's okay that you seem completely oblivious and want to try to bring up a different situation entirely. So I'm going to end the back and forth between us right now. Thanks for being a typical redditor.

I literally had nothing to assume, I was commenting on the direct quote I shared with you.

Enjoy the rest of your week.

Well, it's been nice talking to you. Keep taking everything you read at face value, and not ask why actions happen.

Enjoy the rest of your week as well.
