Break Up with Her Without Breaking Her Heart


You are going to college where lots of responsibilities await you, along with new opportunities and new girls. You may want to break up with your girlfriend because of the opportunities it will bring you, such as having no worries over your relationship with her, and the advantages of having a single life in college that will allow you to excel in your chosen field of study.
So how exactly are you going to do it?
Well, you'll have to tell her that you want to break up with her! You don't really have to do silly things so that she won't be upset with you. The most important thing is to communicate your plans to her clearly. But to make the process smoother, here are some tips:
- Do the things that you enjoy together. You may cook her favorite food, or you may watch a movie together. It is important for you to be sweet to her--of course, while still being cocky and funny--so that she will remember you in the nicest of ways.
- Give her a gift. You may give her any piece of jewelry that she would use comfortably. You should tell her to keep it, and say that this can remind her of all the good times that you've been through together.
- Tell her that you are still young. It is important for you to sound serious in your conversation with her, while still being cocky and funny. You have to tell her that you have plans for you and her in the future, and finishing your college education will be essential to your success. State the fact that you are still young and you must have time to grow by yourself.
- Tell her the truth. You don't have to tell lies to make her believe that you don't want her anymore. You should clarify the fact that you are going to be busy. Your studies are your priority. Tell her that there is always a time for everything. And college may just pass away quickly, you never know. (And if she really can wait for you, then she really deserves you.)
- Stop seeing her. Do not see her even once. You have to stop seeing her so that she will get the message that you are no longer interested in seeing her. It must be completely clear.
- Send her occasional e-mail messages. This could seem ironic that you are communicating with her without seeing her. But this strategy may put you in the situation of having a reservation with her, meaning if ever you change your mind, you can easily go back to her, or even if you don't, you will smooth the transition out of your relationship.

Wow... Wow. I just cannot put into words how WRONG that is. But I'll certainly try. If your reason for breaking up is because you want to move on to something better, you should say that. Not keep the poor idiot hanging around thinking "he might come back," not tormenting someone for years. "Without breaking their hearts" my @$$. Breaking up is tough. Be straight to the point, don't drag it out, and if you give half a damn about the person in question, incourage them to find someone else who's worthy of THEM, and to be happy. Not hang around until you've played the field and decided your "exciting" days are over.
