I have seen some breakups. At some point or another one of the participants dehumanizes the previous partner. It's scary, it's like the propaganda bullet point that is part of the list used to qualify a genocide. I never did that ; heartbreaks are really damaging to me. Anecdata, of course.

If dehumanization helps to distance and align with reality, then that's what'll happen. It could be the catalyst that helps push some folks past the threshold function that would otherwise keep them in the past.
