Do you think that relationships that "don't work" can be made to work? Or are you a person that thinks that you can't fix what is broken and you must cut your losses or give up? Why do you think so?

Just curious about other people opinions.

Depends on whats wrong and why it didn't work. Somethings couples can get past other things they can't. I also think this is specific to each couple what they can or cannot overcome.

Typically what I've found to be true is that once that "spark" has gone from a relationhship, that it typically never returns and neither do relationhships.

Even though it takes so much more than a "spark" or an "inner desire" to make a relationship work, relationships can't grow or exist without them.

It's always that spark or inner desire to love and want to be with the other person that is the last line of defense, sort of speak, that holds a relationship together and makes people work to keep it. And when that is gone, there's no fire to push people.

So, getting back to your original question of whether or not you can get a relationship to work if it isn't or hasn't, I would answer No. If there's no spark between the people.

I believe that if a relationship ever worked that it can work again. my husband and i have been through so much and still kicking.. you just have to want to fight.. if you dont feel that that is where you want to be then cut your losses but if you want to be there fix it.....

I feel a broken relationship can be fixed but the time to give up is on the amount of attempts you try to fix things. After a few trys and nothing was able to show to m that it worked or there is no improvement then to me that give me a sign that if it didn't work before then what will if I tried it another 20 times. All that will do is cause more heart break, confusion, and lost time to seek for someone new.

ME & my GF and are trying things back. We dated for 17 months then had somewhat a little break but agreed to take things slow and focus on the problems and fixing them. We both know if this doesn't work that nothing will. OVerall, the point is its ok to give a chance or two but there is only so many you can give. You have to just realize after time that things are not meant to be.
