Some people no matter what you tell them about bp won't "get it", but it's worth trying. If you are still having the same difficulties with them then you can reevaluate at that time. In most cases people deserve second chances. I know I have been grateful when I received a second chance.

I have also had to end a couple of relationships with long term friends, but I feel okay about it because I did give them numerous chances, but the pattern kept repeating itself.
