if you had friend and you have ruined your relationships, do you think that such relationship can be made the same as before or you think that 'the broken vase cannot be repaired'?

I believe that relationships can be restored -- even ones that have been broken badly.
I believe that God must intercede -- through the Holy Spirit -- for that to actually occur.
In our nature, we will hold grudges and hold onto our own "rights' that get in the way of healing to take place. We want to get even or even hurt the other person who might have caused the brokenness. We don't by our own reason and strength have the ability to bring healing.
But with God all things are possible. I know and have seen Him bring healing to relationships that were damaged beyond our human ability to repair them.
It happens rarely -- but when it does -- it is because of Him.

The relationship can never be the same as before. Relationships are always changing, whether someone has ruined it for you or something between two people changed. Learn to move on with the relationship and forgive the things in the past. Look towards the future. Good Luck!

Can they be repaired, absolutely. Will they be the same, never. Sounds that you feel bad about something you did and that caused the friendship to go sour. Have you apologized? Maybe invite your friend' to lunch at your place and just say 'I'm Sorry'. You never know, it may really work. But don't expect the same relationship, especially at first. Your friend may not be able to trust you completely yet. If you have apologized and your friend doesn't want to accept it, then you need to gather yourself and move on. There are plenty of people to be friends with. Look how many people here are friendly!!!

I know what you mean. Relationships go bad and we want them back the way they were before. Why do we want them back the way they were before ? It went bad right ? We want them back, yes, but not the way they were before. You have to work out what went wrong and if there is a chance it can be different then go for it. You have to talk talk and talk. I tried. I wanted my dream back. My dream had turned into a recurrent nightmare. Am free of it all now and happy to be so. We are such creatures of "Habit " Good luck.

it can definitely be repaired as long as the other side is willing to get over the issue. if you have apologized and talked about it and the person hurt will no longer bring the problembackup, then you can restore the relationship. it's all up to the person who was hurt..

Most of the time friendships which seem to have been lost for whatever reason can be repaired. Though it is unlikely to return to exactly the way it was before.

it takes a lot of work but it can be restored. i have had several fall outs with several of my friends just because we have strong personalities but we always seem to work it out and come back together. if the friendship/relationship was strong from the beginning it wont be ruined over one or two fallouts.

I think it would depend on what happened between the 2 people, and how mature and willing they are to sit down and talk about what happened.
