How To Break Up With Someone You Love?
Be straightforward, not curt
Don’t argue. Don’t get into a frame of mind that you are out on a war and being victorious is the only option you have. Be straightforward about your decision. Tell it in a matter-of-fact way. There is simply no reason why you have to be blunt. It will only make things go from bad to worse. Even if he pleads before you to reconsider the relationship, resist the temptation of accepting what he says. However, don’t be mean when you do so. You can be extremely polite even while uttering a ‘no’.
Write to him
If it is difficult for you to confront before your partner and talk to him about the breakup, writing is a good way to tell him the truth. Even while writing, you will have to be extremely courteous. Remember, writing is a one-sided affair. Your letter may leave your partner devastated. He might reply to your letter. Be prepared for whatever comes your way.
End on a good note
Lastly, it is very important to end on a harmonious note. He will be devastated when he comes to know of your decision. He may ask you to come back. But, you have to put it right and end it well. Saying “We’ll still be friends” serves no purpose. It’s a hard fact to digest and it will take him some time to come out of it. Just bid farewell by saying, “It was an amazing journey that we had together and its memories will stay with me forever.” If you wish to say something else, you may. Just ensure you don’t say something fake. Whatever you say has to be honest. After all, it’s your last day with the person whom you loved so much.
Breakups are bad. But, if you put in the right way, they can be less painful. It’s up to you to decide whether you want to give your partner a prick while you leave or whether you want to calm him with a few soothing words.
