How to Break up

So you are in a great relationship with your boyfriend and girlfriend. Everything is sunshine and flowers and you think nothing can ever go wrong. Then, out of nowhere, you can’t stand them and you just want to end everything you two have. What do you do? You don’t want to hurt their feelings do you? You want to end on a good note and perhaps be acquaintances later on down the road, even if you think they’re complete jerks right now. The easiest and ironically worst ways to break up with someone is through e-mail or text. Don’t even think about sending a cute text explaining everything that the other did wrong and expect them to understand. That just makes them believe that they weren’t even worth your time to actually tell them you want to break up; since you did it through text, you obviously didn’t care for them. Oh and Facebook as a means to breaking up is a huge faux pas as well. How would you feel if you suddenly saw that you’re partner’s relationship status has gone from “in a relationship” to “single”? Or if you read their status, and you learn there that your relationship is over? Technology makes breaking up as impersonal as possible and it’s a highly unattractive quality to do that. The best way is to break up face to face. Simply tell them all the reasons why you want to end the relationship and wish them the best in their life. Keep the conversation as short as possible since you want to end having any sort of communication with you. In this way, you will seem responsible and perhaps keep the lines of communication open between you and your ex.
