Is that really true? I mean do you just "know" when you're done or are most just making a conscious decision because they know it's what they have to do. Maybe I should start a new thread on this topic instead of hijacking your thread Cinderella.
Its all part of the discussion so I dont consider it hijacking.
Sometimes, things have to be in line to safely leave, end things ect. Loose ends tied sort of thing.
IMO, leaving and then returning makes things more confusing and less healthy for everyone, also in some situations you have to force the other person to leave and just an accusation doesnt necessarily get it done. SOmetimes its a conscious decision because you know what you have to do, other times theres nothing left but memories and lots of drama.
For me, the more i focus on me, the less I can be manipulated, pulled ect
