What To Do When Breaking Up With Someone Breaking up with someone is one of the hardest things to do in life. There are many people left in pieces because their ex partner went about breaking up with them in completely the wrong way, and many choose not to love again because of it. If you want to break up with you partner it needs to be in a way that the both of you have closure so that you don't hurt them too much in the process. Here are some things to keep in mind when it comes to breaking up with your partner: 1.

Be sensitive but clear - Tell them up front that you are calling off the relationship and remember to keep your tone of voice, facial expressions and body language friendly. Deep down you feel happy because you are ending the relationship that you don't want to be in, but try to keep them feelings to yourself until you leave the situation. Remember that your ex partner has feelings too so be sensitive with the approach and keep it short. The less you say the less likely you will fumble your words making it become awkward for the both of you. So keep it short, make it clear and be sensitive with how you go about it. 5. Listen to what they have to say - Once you have said all that's needed to be said, let them have the chance to speak. Listen to what they feel needs to be said, you are breaking their heart right now so the least you could do is listen to what they have to say in response to you calling it off. By listening to them, they may be more accepting of the break up and you could also benefit from what they have to say about your faults in the relationship so you can change your ways before entering a new
“You'll get over it,” one might be told by their high school friend after a break-up. Some might believe romantic relationships that occur early in life, are frivolous and silly.

While all relationships can be difficult, romantic relationships seem to be some of the most complicated types. Sometimes two people can care for one another so much, yet they cannot seem to communicate effectively. When a lack of communication occurs between two people for a long period of time, it most likely will lead to a huge confrontation and possibly a complete dissolve of the relationship. The Break-Up is a movie that shows how important interpersonal communication is in relationships. The movie features Brooke and Gary, a couple which has been together for several years. Although they seem to be arguing about something trivial like lemons, there are much bigger issues that begin to surface. Throughout this paper I will show how

When engaging in an affair with someone other than your partner, most people find in the end that the affair is not worth it. If a person is having an affair because they are no longer in love with their companion, it will be easier to break all ties with a loved one instead of being unfaithful. If the affair is out of lust, perhaps resisting the temptation and concentrating on trying to revive the romance at home is a solution.

We stayed in physical contact but avoided sensitive issues. “Cutoff is the reverse of fusion, and occurs when individuals are unable to manage unresolved issues with family of origin members” (Kerr, 2003). I experienced that I can manage the relationship better when I cutoff the relationship with them although the problems are prominent and unresolved. “The more a person cuts off from family of origin, the more he/she looks to his spouse, children, and friends to meet his needs” (Rovers et. at., 2007).
Admit it: You 've lied. We all have at some stage or point in our life. Whether you 're asserting your feelings, getting it off your chest or just being plain and distinctly honest, the truth about honesty is that honesty isn 't always the best artery of choice. What 's more, striving on the avenue of complete disclosure can drive an unwanted wedge and result in permanent closure on a relationship.

Do you believe in happy endings? Once in a person’s lifetime, everyone finds this one perfect person whom they fall hopelessly in love with and live happily ever after. That is a mere fallacy, in the real world, this simply does not happen.

There are certain people who aren’t meant to fit into your life in the long-term no matter how much you want them to. Sometimes people come into your life to shake you up, tear apart your ego, flip your perspective, show your obstacles, break your heart and mind open. The cause of a breakup can be due to various reasons such as cheating, falling out of love, quarrelling or the lack of communication.
