Breaking up with someone you have loved and shared all your feelings and secrets is one of the hardest things to do. This is for the obvious reason that you are going to hurt your partner and no one wants to hurt someone they have loved. To break up with your partner respectfully and without having to hurt them, follow these tips;
Do it in person
What if one day you just woke up and found a message from your lover saying “It’s over”? Of course, you would be very disappointed. Create time and meet your partner and let him know why you think it’s the best time to end your relationship.
Break up in the evening
Don’t spoil your partner’s day by breaking up with them in the morning when they are getting ready to go to work as you might end up ruining their productivity. Wait until evening when they are not busy with work and discuss it over.
Be honest
Some people will come up with false stories just to create excuses to break up with you and this is so wrong. Be honest and tell them the genuine reason for breaking up with them. This way, they will learn their mistakes and improve for the sake of their next partner.
Compliment them
The fact that you are calling it quits doesn’t mean it’s a chance to call them names and demean them. Even if they cheated on you, they must at least have some attributes that you like about them. For instance, tell them that you love their hardworking nature but it is unfortunate that you can’t tolerate their unfaithfulness.
