Break-up

Introduction:

A break-up is the end of a committed relationship whether it is marriage or any form of romantic relationship. It has a psychological impact on both the parties, the one who has initiated the break-up and the other one as well. Sometimes a break-up leaves one of the parties with a deep emotional scar and it impacts decisions related to other future relationships.
