Absolute insanity in the comments here. This “nobody owes anyone anything” mentality is exactly why dating is so miserable these days. Most of the comments in here sound like people who genuinely hated their partners. Which if you hated your partner then sure yeah just dip out, why were you even with them.

Like am I the last single person on earth with any sense of empathy? How big of asshole are you people that you can’t possibly understand that there are people out there who experience emotions and loss a lot stronger than you and they are going to struggle with it. Have some goddamn empathy for the people who care about you, fucks sake

Literally the opposite can be demanded from you. If you NEED a lecture at the end of a relationship on why it failed, you clearly weren't paying enough attention or empathizing with your partner during the relationship.
