No, this is not in relation to my blog (which was fictious by the way), Ending a relationship is my theme of the week!

Ending a relationship will always leave a shadow of hurt. I doubt if there is a way to do it without the pain. It is unavoidable. Most people don't like hurting others, thus choosing to do it via whatsapp.

Having said that I think face to face is the right thing to do. She may be hurt and detest you at first but in the end respect lasts longer...

A good theme,, but as it is fiction, it can never be real.
Dumping the relationship, the person concerned could be the one in the best position to know how to.
For a long term relationship, that would be somewhat painful as it may seem and not easy, but when it's just a passing or a new one,, i think it's not really a problem, both sides understand, though dumping is a term not so adequate in a human relation, ending might be less painful but it's your choice of expression.

Yes,, if we are thrown away, what is there left to do, partings are always a sad thing in reality,, depending though how long the relationship lasts,, though there's no choice left but to live with it, and uplift your pride and move forward.handshake

DH,,as i get it, the daughter now is no longer in competition with her mom's attention, she can have her mom alone, you're no longer around, so she could that be ironic or shall we say, diplomatic towards you,, she won after all ,,possesiveness & jealousy , this happens often to man or woman with kids.

I don't really like the word Dumping.

But I would think it best to tell someone 'Face to Face'.

Face to face is the most respectful way to end a relationship.

Anything other method is cowardly imo.

I agree. I moved after the face to face. He wasn't wearing his ears. I was moving anyway. I just did not tell him. As in my eyes (the ones that mattered at the time) he was no longer part of my life. dunno

Well said...if one cannot confront the reasons why you are wishing to terminate a relationship then by running away and hiding behind another method is just that cowardly....thumbs up

Be so needy and cloying that she cannot help losing interest in you and your relationship dies in the cold. Don't pull away, push on, push on to Moscow.

Hi Felix and Stedan wave

Other than being respectful, it gives one a sense of closure: that it really is over. It may be the more painful way, at the time, but it's the kindest in the long run.

Self-saboutage. Duplicitous as it sounds it is surprisingly painless. Quash every last shred of affection and desire she had for you before you split up and she will not be losing any sleep after she's gone.

Better this than the behaving like a complete arsehole in an ill-fated attempt to deliberately get dumped. Doing this destroys a woman's confidence, so don't do it.

Yes - In theory maybe but there is another view.
The discretion of complete silence is not cowardice.
IMO - It is often the best way to avoid any argument.

Nope. It's a cop-out in my view.

...speaking from my own experiences.

Breaking up with someone by phone,text etc to me is a cowardly stuff to do.

If breaking up with someone causes an argument then so be it.I would just say my piece,walk a way and leave them staying there talking to themselves.

Just tell them you're not happy in the realtionship, or you're interested in seeing other people, or you don't see a future together you'd enjoy.


Just tell them whatever's up for you, without blaming them or accusing them of stuff.

It's enough for people to with the rejection, and the loss they don't need to be trying to cope with a bunch reasons why we think they're not good enough to be with.
