Stay or stay behind if you get my drift is the reason that leave is harder than left behind. Changing anything requires effort on your part, having it done for you is less work. But.... it will also hurt more.
Isn't that a paradox.

I think it depends mainly on the people involved and reasons for parting ways.
Some may leave a relationship and not have much problem moving on with their lives. While others will find it harder due to say, emotional involvement, guilt, financial status, or there are other people involved (kids, for instance). But I think anyone with a healthy conscience will feel a twinge when they put a relationship behind them.
As for the people being left behind, it is the same thing really. Some move on faster than others while some will dwell on why they were left behind (or on the relationship itself), developing either bitterness and resentment or in contrast learning from the past. For the latter, it is more emotional. It is painful being left behind.
Ending any relationship will cause problems, regardless of emotional involvement or not. It depends on both parties to be mature enough to work out how they want it to end. With a bang, or peacefully.
It takes time for anyone to accept the fact that something precious has ended. Sometimes you may realise you've made a mistake, most times you pick yourself up and look forward to a new beginning.

Depends on the circumstances. When I am working as a parlour maid then I leave and return several times during the meal and that is easy. When the meal is finished and the guests retire to the lounge it is easier to be left behind as then I can clear up

I've always been the one to leave, but for the first time, I'm being left behind.
And from personal experience, being left behind is so much worse. I feel like he's a couple steps ahead of me, probably because he was walking all over my heart when he walked out.

It is definitly easier to leave than to be left. How could it not be? I know from personal experience, it is so much easier to cut people off than to be cut off. Usually when you are leaving, your feelings arent as strong, therefore its easier.

its easier to leave as when you leave you have had loads of time to prepare your speech and adjust, when you are left you get taken by surprise and are left to wonder how you never saw it coming

As I was left behind, I'd much rather not.

Yep....your feelings get hurt when someone leaves you but when you leave you show power.
