It's a bit similar to holding a job: Employers favor those who have experience, but they also want to avoid hiring a hopper who gets fired from every job or leaves after 1 month each.
A relationship can end, for binary's sake, 2 ways. #1 is a mutual breakup, where both parties feel the relationship did not last as they'd hoped, and they end it without a sour taste. That's equivalent to quitting your job on good terms.
The other way is the relationship equivalent of getting fired from your job: one party probably fucked up, and the relationship ended badly (cheating, abuse, etc). The fewer of THOSE you have, the smarter both parties were in the relationship. But sometimes, you just can't see that coming when you start it. You can tell hints with experience, but nobody's a psychic. N example: one ex of mine had a marriage which lasted 7 or 8 years, which begun like a storybook and everything was perfect for a few years. Then the woman became bored of him, regretted settling down at an early age, and proceeded to cheat on him and fuck him up pretty bad (And at the same time, he'd slumped into a depression and paid her little attention, so one could argue her behavior wasnt all that unjustified). He's relatively fine by today, but nobody could've seen that coming 5 years in advance.
IMO, the older you get (if you want a relationship), the better it is to have relationship experience. The more time passes, the less a person wants their partner to be a fresh slate who hasn't experienced a relationship, and who will feel puppy love on the first date. There are obvious exceptions, and nice people give more leeway in that respect.
feels like im writing a fucking reddit post. obviously im no relationship expert after just 2 or 3, but it's my thoughts to your post
