Ending a relationship respectfully involves clear communication and honesty. In person conversations are often the most considerate, while avoiding ghosting or indirect methods prevents unnecessary pain. Choosing the right approach depends on the situation and the feelings involved. Learning effective breakup strategies can help you handle this difficult process with kindness and clarity.
In person... which I have yet to do in all truth
No need to pressure yourself with doing it better, hey you're not getting a prize for it! But it is considerate to do it in person, you just do your part with tact, consideration and honesty. He's gotta hear what he's gotta hear that's life and relationships for ya, crappy sometimes 😢
I hope all goes well, Luck.
I broke up with my ex over a letter i left open on my computer to another girl that i was in love with.
I got a key cut for my girlfriend and before i went to work i let a long letter open in microsoft word on my computer, spilling how i missed her and how my girlfriend at the moment is so shallow.
My girlfriend came home and must of read the letter on my computer, then i arrived home from work.
You can work out the rest heh we aren't together anymore that's for sure.
THAT IS HORRIBLE TAURO! You're evil! Poor chic, I woulda been devasted then infuriated! You wouldn't have found that computer in one piece that's for sure >={ That's gotta be painful.
It was, i was in love with her and she had to move to Melbourne and i live in brisbane, both in australia.
I didn't have strong feelings for the girl i was seeing because the girl i loved left about a month before i met this new girl. It all happened so fast and she just kept pushing and pushing me to be with her and it all just eventually fell apart.
I think i would of broken up with her in about a month anyway, i wasen't feeling it but i really did try, it was just impossible when your still in love with someone else.
The girl that moved away was a libra, very strong attraction to eachother
The girl i was seeing was a Sagittariius and i can't stand them! arghh!
I broke down and left a letter in the mailbox. It was honest, straightfoward and outlined my appreciation for my experience with him. I left it up to him if he wants to talk, that I'd be here. I just can't can't CAN'T do it in person. hmmm I think that's why me's a writer at heart. 😢 Now the sad part is when he finally reads it, I don't know how he'll react. I feel like hell. It is a nightmare Sag, because hurting someone is painful especially when you care for them. But you know you'll hurt them if you stay.
I hear this is a problem for Taureans, letting off the hook...It's not a fun thing for anyone, but it's something you have to get over. My Taurus guy let me down in the most roundabout way without saying anything, just left me to think the worst and it turned out I was right. I suppose some might say he was dishonest by default, lies of omission etc, I don't think he has a dishonest bone in his body, just a bit of a hard time facing up to truth...In one way, like come on, just spit it out and get it over with, on the other...I know it was out of consideration for my feelings (lol and to spare his own too). How Libran is that of me? to think of his side while he is ditching me? He wouldn't mean to hurt me for the world, it just didn't work out. We are still good friends and shall remain. We have a much better understanding of where we are coming from now.
As far as break up stories, it's usually been me that ends things, so I am pretty sympathetic when it comes to being dumped myself. I know it's not easy to do.
Aaaaaaaaaw that is so sweet.
Yeah, everyone handles these things in their own way. I prefer to do these things in person, no matter how messy it gets. The one thing about a letter is that you get to say all you need to without interruption. They can always reply, if they want.
And yeah, it is a Libra trait to look at both sides of any situation, even if it isn't in your favour.
Thanks guys. I was actually talking to my male taurus friend about it and it's funny cause he says he was in the same shoes just recently. He said on his way home from the breakup he felt soooooooo sick about it he was like dizzy and drunklike when driving home it was so stressful. He said the girl didn't say anything just quivered her lip and let tears fall down & jumped out of the car. Then he explained that people like us are scared to get into relationships that get serious cuz we're so scared of the breakup cuz we're do damm bad at them. They take out so much out of us, so much drama & hurt feelings that we avoid it all together. He said us feeling so sick about stuff like this is kinda us bodies & minds preparing us to avoid it.
hmmmm I guess that's why they say taureans are slow & careful in love.
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! I feel so ill. He just called me at work, and I immediately thot it was to talk, and NOPE! He hasn't gotten note yet & called to say he woke up & first thot was he can't wait to see me. I am going to DIE here. This is worse than ever!!! I just sounded shocked & he said, you ok babe? I just swallowed real hard and said, um I gotta go, bye. Oh and now, 5 minutes later I just got a text message from him saying how he thinks i'm an amazing person...fukkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk this is pure torture now! I don't know, I think I am LOSING it! I am going to be a nun after this hell! HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think he read it already. Tell him to look in his mailbox.
I had to, man this was a negative experience. I have never in my life, being the dumper felt this bad. Usually I don't care, now, I do. Maybe I'm growing up? Learning, maybe I care more? I know I care more than I used to. Life experience does that I guess. He was a special person, too bad he won't understand that I valued him.

Poor TG. This is killing you, isn't it? Give it some time. I feel for you, hun, but you know deep down it is for the best.
opps I posted twice. Ya I'll be ok, today will soon be yesterday. Just gonna have a few glasses of wine so I can fall asleep a little better, maybe write a bit. I've always done my best work when I am down or learning or feeling something.
Well I find it suspicious that right after she hung up, obviously disturbed he would text something cute... placing pressure and avoiding the whole thing... Sounds like a scorp to me
