Breaking hearts is a tough reality of dating and should be
tackled with as much respect and maturity as possible. If you
are in a relationship and have tried everything from counseling
to self help books with no avail, then maybe it is time to throw
in the towel.
Always host a break up in person whether you've been dating a
week or decades. Never end a relationship by phone, during a
fight or through someone else. Acting out never works, don't
cheat or ignore your partner in the hopes of your behavior
ending the relationship for you. If you share common friends
never confide in them about the breakup beforehand, there's no
need to test where your friends' loyalties lie. Confrontations
are hard but you owe the person an explanation so be prepared
for an array of emotions.
Before the confrontation think about the reasons for ending your
relationship so you can clearly express them to your partner.
When initiating a breakup let your partner know, in as fair a
way as possible, that your needs aren't being met. Give your
partner the closure they need by answering any questions they
might have. Once you've delivered the news and things have come
to an untimely demise, remove yourself from the situation and
wish them well. Avoid the clichés of asking for gifts back that
you have given or for money that is owed you. Don't leave any
"hope signals" such as giving the old "we'll still be friends"
routine. Even if you do hope to continue a friendship you should
leave that ball in their court.
When all is said and done, breathe a sigh of relief in knowing
that you handled your breakup to the best of your abilities and
move forward with your love life.
