10 Ways to Get Your Boyfriend to Break Up with You
6. Prioritize your career over him
If you want to give your partner subtle hints to break up without coming across as too rude, you can play safe and start prioritizing your career over him. Many relationships go through an overhaul because one of the partners chooses to give more importance to his/her career. This is a very popular trump card and you can use it to your advantage too.
7. Start seeing movies with him in which couples are shown becoming happier after breaking up
To subconsciously plant in your boyfriend’s mind that it is okay to breakup, you can watch movies in which couples are shown becoming happier and better off after breaking up. By constantly re-enforcing that it is possible to deal with breakup maturely, you can start setting up base for having a further conversation about breaking up with your boyfriend.
8. Avoid using mushy nick names and expressions
Avoid addressing your boyfriend with names like baby, sweetie, sweetheart, honey or cupcake if you want to give him signs of a break up. Using mushy romantic nicknames and expressions will make it difficult for you to let go of the emotional attachment that your boyfriend shares with you.
9. Avoid his calls without any reason
Curb and restraint your immediate reaction of picking up the phone as soon as you see your boyfriend’s ID on your cell. Give lame excuses for not picking up his calls and not returning his calls. This will immediately make him think about why you are behaving differently.
10. Do things that you know he doesn’t like
Relationships sustain on an inherent understanding of each others likes and dislikes. By flouting this fundamental rule, you will start feeding into your boyfriend’s head that something is clearly wrong. For example, if he doesn’t like you biting your nails, do the very same thing to tick him off.
