Not all relationships work out, but it can be really awkward when people ask why you split up with your EX.

If you have been in a relationship for a while, a lot of nosy people will want to know why it is over. They will want to know if something happened if one of the parties involved cheated or hooked up with someone else.

Answering a lot of intrusive questions can be awkward, especially if you go to the same school or work with your Ex. You are under no obligation to provide the nitty-gritty details of why the relationship ended. It is often more respectful to leave a lot of things unsaid.
