and to start a new relationship so soon when all the thoughts are

term r'ship..
my 2 cents..
Unless both parties enter into a legal contract, also known as
marriage, there is no court of law for affairs of the heart. No
law, no justice, no accountability. Fairness is moot because how
much one gives or takes in a relationship is often questionable and
seldom quantifiable.
Rational thought is not a pre-requisite for relationships. You
don't need to be of rational thought to fall in love (though it is
believed, on the contrary, that you have to abandon a bit of reason
to accept something as irrational as love).
A long-term relationship is definitely bound to have highs and
lows, but when a party calls a time-out on love and puts friendship
on the table instead, the relationship is -- more often that not --
as good as dead.
My 2 cents 2...
