Tomorrow1943 said:
The Beatles broke up because they were becoming more independent and being restricted to a band was limiting their creativity, although it was still plentiful. John was drifting away from the band partly because of Yoko, but it's not entirely her fault.

NO, we were lucky that the Beatles lasted as long as they did. Four marvelous great musicians, very talented as individuals, unlike other musicians. Look, e.g. to the Stones. Everybody has a specific role. Jagger, singer, Watts, drummer, etc. ...
The Beatles were too talented as individuals, it could not work for long.

No. I mean, she may have played a part in it, but there's more to it than her.

I think she was just one of many factors; she played a very minor part, if anything. There were problems, complications, and tension before she came along. I think that the breakup was inevitable, although it might have been slightly prolonged without her. You can only stand to be around the same people for so long, after all.

Rubyrings said:
All of you are acting like the Beatles' breakup was something inevitable and only mildly sad. The way I see it, it was the smaller tragedy in the Beatles' history that led to the bigger tragedy when John died. Because I don't believe the second would have happened if the first hadn't.
But I'm getting off topic, aren't I? I think that Yoko probably intensified all the tension without knowing she was doing it. I think she convinced John to just give up instead of actually working out the problems like he should have been - he was the bandleader, after all. John should have been able to balance his love life with his band. He shouldn't have let one take over the other.

That's a really good point.

Thanks! Which point did you mean, the one about the Beatles' breakup being tragic, or the one about John not balancing his love life properly?

Both points, but especially the one about John not balancing his love life properly.
