Is there a story unfolding in your community? Let Hivisasa know

Do you feel like you want to dump your lover but you don't know how to do it without hurting his feelings?

Well, here is how to do it.

1. Ignore his calls

Never pick that call even when you think his house has caught fire. Ignore until he smells the coffee.

2. Never reply to his texts

When he texts saying hi, ignore. When he asks what time you will have time, ignore. When he asks why you are ignoring his texts, ignore again. The rule is to ignore.

3. Don't go to him when he invites

Should he invite you for a date or bash, ignore the invitation. Find something else to do. Don't show mercy.

4. Be late

In case the situation compels you to be with him, say at a funeral, come in late and be the first to leave. Especially when you know he might want to introduce you to his parents or friends.

5. Avoid his friends

These are the friends he will appeal to when he notices changes in your attitude. So just look for other circles to hang out with. Avoid them like a plague.
