Break Ups!

Break ups are never easy, whether you've been dating for two weeks or two years! Let's say you're the one dumper as apposed to the dumpee.First off, do it in person. Don't do it over a phone call, e-mail or text message. You will just come off looking mean. A not so good way to call it quits with someone is to whip out the ole "It's not you, it's me". Let the person know how you truly feel. If you pull that famous line, the person will be confused and left with many questions unanswered. Also, make it private, but not too private. For instance, don't end it at a popular restaurant just in case the person gets emotional. That would be embarrassing for, you and the dumpee. If you make it too private, that could turn ugly very easily. If the person gets abusive or aggressive with you, you want some other people to be around. Don't break up with someone at a place you two would go together, such as, a restaurant where you went on your first date together. Lastly, tell the dumpee how you feel. This sounds harsh, but try your hardest not to think about the other person. Remember, you're breaking up with the person because you're not happy. Try to put your feelings first. Be strong. Once you end it, stand by your decision. Now, lets say you're the dumpee. It stinks. Once it happens, accept it. DO NOT beg them to stay with you. It doesn't work. Find some close friends you can rely on and talk, or spend some girl time. Eat some comfort food and try to focus on yourself. Try to avoid the dumper if you still have feelings for them. Give them space, chances are they are hurt too. Don't be an obsessive ex, delete his number so you're not tempted to text him/call him. Definitely don't facebook stalk him. You're single and he is single as well. Have fun! Don't try to find a rebound right away. Enjoy being single and having fun! Even if it seems like you will never get over him, you will! There are plenty of fish in the sea! Another guy will come and he'll probably be a lot better than your ex!
