It began like:

YOU*ME=ONLY (i)

and after few years

YOU*ME=ENDED (ii)

The termination of the failed affair was due to:
48671 (i)
and/or to
79256(ii)

Solve both alphametics and determine the cause of the unhappy end.

(i) YOU*ME = ONLY

solves as:

183*47 = 8601

Accordingly, 48671 corresponds to MONEY

(ii) YOU*ME = ENDED

solves as:

694*75 = 52050

Accordingly, 79256 corresponds to MONEY

Consequently, in terms of both (i) and (ii), the cause of the unhappy end is MONEY.
