my mum and dad have split up again, i wish they would just stay together- i mean their engaged, whats the point of them being engaged if they won't stay with each other for more than a week?

Hi there,
There isn't any point. Sad fact of life is that there isn't much you can do to force them get back together. Relationships go sour for a number of reasons. It it gets to a point of no return, only a miracle can save it.
They may both be better off trying to find new love and form new relationships with other people. I am very sorry I don't have better advice for you.

Their relationship is not your responsibility. Sorry, love, but you really don't have a right to interfere. It could be that their relationship is fundamentally flawed and that is why they keep breaking up. Perhaps they need to accept that they have no future together and make the break permanent.
Just be supportive of your mum, pleasant to your stepdad, and don't judge either of them. Trust them to know what's best for them and accept their decision gracefully.

Hi Hon... your mom and stepdad's problems aren't your business... they will have to work it out on their own.
Even though it's a worry for you, and you'd like to see them get along, we can't control what other people do.
Perhaps they dont' know how to communicate about their issues, maybe they have a toxic relationship. It's possible for two people to care for each other, yet not be good for each other at all.
I hope it works out given time. Best thing you can do is take care of yourself, your own problems and do your best with the relationship you have with each of them as individuals.
take care.

well, they both gotta be mature enough to handle life's problem. If they can't do it, then perhaps, it would be better if they split up and life a life of their own.... but if you really want them to be together, then maybe you could talk them out together. Remind them they're both adults and they should communicate with each other regarding their problems or whatever it is that bothers them and solve them together instead of packing up and splitting up.

They have their reasons for behaving the way they do. So my advice to you is worry about yourself before you get caught up in their squabbles. On the other hand you could wait until they are happy again and then tell them both together that the situation is upsetting you. Then watch them melt.

Sounds like they both have some growing up to do in the relationship department. Fact of life is that you are probably best to remain out of their squabbles and allow them to iron things out on their own. You may want to consider mentioning some form of relationship counseling for them to participate in but that would be all. Good luck to all involved.

It sounds as if they aren't well suited if they keep breaking up and to answer you question there is absolutely nothing you can do to get them back together. They have to make this decision on their own. Just love them.

You cant force a horse to drink water. You can find a Church who can help and see if you can talk to the church and then try to invite them there and all of you can talk it out. But you have to figure a way to get them to go. God bless you!

best thing is to do is sit them both down in a room and ask them just what they feel for each other, see if that helps, im married but sometimes need some space from my hubby.

Sadly thats just the way it is.
Maybe its for the best that they part if they are so erratic.
