Breaking up is tough. Learn how to end things respectfully to reduce collateral damage. Avoid hurting your partner by taking time and being considerate.

Communicate your true emotions to your partner. If you don't like how they treat you, for instance, you should express your displeasure.

Honesty

Avoid using the other person in your relationship as a means of power or manipulation. This is particularly the case if you want to end the relationship

Mind Games

White Frame Corner

Don't try to avoid the awkward breakup conversation by making up lame excuses like how much you've got a crush on someone else or any of the other nonsense.

Be Direct

White Frame Corner

Don't keep the relationship going out of fear; it will only bring you heartache. You might give the other person the impression that you're not ready to end things.

Stop making excuses

White Frame Corner

Don't pretend to want to be friends with someone if you have no plans to actually be their friend. Keeping in touch with an ex can be difficult.

Don’t Say You Can Stay Friends

White Frame Corner

Feelings of anger or hurt won't help the situation, so try to let them go. When you're feeling emotional, you may make hasty decisions or say things you'll come to regret. 

Don't Get Emotional

White Frame Corner

When breaking up with someone, it's best not to bring up any old arguments or misunderstandings. Bringing up old grievances will serve only disrupt you.

No Harsh Judgments

White Frame Corner

Stop making excuses like "You made me do it" and take responsibility for your actions in the relationship. Because it's so hard to disprove it.

Take Responsibility

White Frame Corner

Do not tell your partner that you will always care about them if you intend to end your relationship. It can be used against you if and when your ex tries to win you.

Don't say that you'll always care

White Frame Corner

It's important to give your ex some time and space after a breakup. For at least a month, you shouldn't try to contact them in any way.
