Breaking Up
Breaking up is hard to do. There are
so many feelings that go along with the conflict and disillusionment when
a marriage falls apart. Knowing the laws, worrying about the legalities,
facing divorce or annulment are stressful concerns.

Breaking Up
Yes, breaking up is hard to do. We've
all gone through it, we've all cried and thought it would never end. But
life does go on, and it actually gets much better!

Up - Accepting : Breaking up
If I was good enough to you I would

Breaking Up : How to Break Up : break
up via e-mails...
i think breaking up with someone can
be done in many ways including e-mails.when u use dis way,it doesnt mean
u r coward,in fact its 1 of d most calm way to express d sour feeling,especially
for gals...because most of d gals r emotional n prefer not to face their
partners when delivering this kinda news..they don have enough courage or
guts to hurt their partners n to c his face when he hears dis news n finally
end up by getting more emotional n reuniting again.but when expressing thru
e-mails,they can actually sit,think n type calmly n express whateva they
wanna say without fear.this not only good for d gals but also for d guys
whom receiving the news..it gives guys d chances 2 sit n read them calmly
n slowly understand d situation n wat d gal actually wanna say n hw do she
feels deep in her heart...n at d same time it can avoids any kind of unpleasent
response like bursting out or slam d car door.but remember gals,u must also
give him chance to talk over dis matter.respect his views n listen wat he
says first...clear all d doubts n answer him if he ask any..don juz let d
relationship end with lots of Question mark..clarify everythin n take a wise
decision...

Breaking Up : How to Break Up : Breaking
Up Is Hard To Do...
But if BOTH partners aren't in whole
heartedly, it can be stressful and hard. It must be done. To keep yourself
from regretting the breakup, remember all the things that brought you to
that point. That will help transition to being a stronger person. Know that
you did the right thing and followed your heart.

Breaking Up : How to Break Up : Breaking
up with him without hurting him
This afternoon i am going to break up
with my boyfriend. We've only been going out for a month and a half but I
just feel liek it's not working. We have been friends for ages and all that
sort of went away from the moment he asked me out.
When I tell him this I know i am going
to feel guilty because i have a feeling he likes me quite a bit and that
he isnt expecting it. I was thinking of waiting a little but then I realised
that there was no point. If you really believe its nnot going well and its
not going to improve then just get it over and done with.
This afternoon im simply going to tell
him the truth: face to face. As I see him every day at work I feel a text
or note would just make it seriously awkward. Im going express that I just
liked it best when we were friends which i know may sound so typical but
in this case it really is the truth. I just hope that when it is done, he
wont look at me like ive wounded him too badly. I hate causing pain, especially
to people i do care for.
If you are thinking of doing the same
thing, try and imagine the scene. Don't reherse too much but I think it helps
to imagine how he will react and ways you could make him feel better without
sounding too smug or cliched (for example: you deserve some1 SO MUCH
better).
Good luck to anyone, rght now im quite
nervous but I think I will feel a lot better when it is done. Hopefully tonight
I can feel not only guilt but a lot of relief pass over me.

Breaking Up : How to Break Up : Breaking
Up???
Well my name is Juan and it is extremely
hard for me to brake up with my girlfriend of 2yrs and counting. From what
I've read from the breaking up tips I managed to borrow some lines like "growing
apart," "different interests," and "not the right one anymore". It's hard
for me trying to brake up with my gf because I was never the one trying to
brake up with a relationship, it was always my ex's who broke up with me,
and since I know how it feels, it is hard for me to do so. I know that it
is hard and that I will pass through a difficult time but after time I hope
that GOD brings me happiness!!!

Breaking Up : How to Break Up : focus
on feelings
breaking up can be hard for you and
ur ex make sure that you NEVER use the old lines (e.g its not you its me,
its not working, i like someone else) keep it straight and true because if
your not true to your feelings and his then how on earth is he ment to
feel?

Breaking Up : How to Break Up : How to
Break Up
Breaking up is never easy. There is
always two sides to each story. I read several of the tips, because I just
broke up with my boyfriend via email and breaking up via email or messenger
is not being COWARD. This person is doing the best that they can do at the
time and may have valid reasons for doing so. I just broke up via email and
certainly don't consider myself a COWARD. I did this to take care of myself
because he has show signs of rage. I owned the part I played in the relationship
and sent him this email:
Again, I wish I could sit across the
table from you and tell you this, but this is the best I can
do.
I feel that neither one of us is happy.
I know, Im not and I feel your not.
I have made several errors in this
relationship. Let me explain.
The first one is using the words No
matter what. I said those words with good intentions, however I was
not able to live up to the integrity behind them and I now know just how
much power I carry with my words and hope that I will do better in the
future.
Second, I also said that I was willing
to work on our relationship and that the work would be tough and most people
wouldnt want to do it and it is indeed too difficult for me to
do.
We, I used the words I love
you, without really knowing what that means. Love, true love means
that both partners hold each other in warm personal regard most of the time.
True love, also carries with it respect for the other person. When I told
you I loved you, I used those words too loosely, then the new
wore off. When we got serious about our relationship, it wasnt fun
anymore and relationships should be fun. I just dont have these feelings
anymore. Relationships are work and I know that, but when you have to work
just to like each other something is wrong.
Our relationship has given me several
blessings I now value my worth and I know Im here to serve God.
I thank you and God for teaching me these things.
I hope you will be able to accept my
apology, if not today, maybe one day.
I also, realize you are going to go
through a lot of emotions again, and again for my part in that I deeply
apologize

Breaking Up : How to Break Up
: The break-up guilt
Breaking up with someone is always painful.
Hopefully you have been talking up until now and realize that something is
not right in the relationship. If you have never given your partner a clue
that you are unhappy, this should sound warning bells. The exact same thing
could happen in the next relationship. Be sure to talk about things that
make you unhappy BEFORE you get to the break-up stage.
However, let´s assume you´ve
talked about things, but they just won´t fix, and you just aren´t
meant for each other. You will still feel guilty if you´re the one who
throws in the towel and says the relationship won´t work. After all,
you´ve both opened your hearts to each other, tried to make things work,
tried to be there for each other, and now you´re saying you don´t
want to try any more.
Realize that most relationships end
in breakup - it takes a few tries before you manage to find the right partner.
This is a normal thing. You gave it your best shot, and you simply weren´t
meant for each other. If you are honest and thoughtful in your breakup, then
you have done both of you a favor. You are now free to find someone better
suited for you, and your partner is now free to find someone new that is
a perfect match.

Breaking Up : Should We Break Up? : Breaking
up
I know that breaking up with someone
is the hardest thing to do. But let me tell ya something, your heart will
tell ya when something isn't right !! GO by that HONESTLY. Personally I've
been in a relationship for almost 4 years he was my everything, I thought
he was the love of my life. But the older I got I soon wondered if he really
was? The truth of the matter is, you know when your heart skips a beat when
you see that person, and you know when your heart doesn't. People act like
they can change how they feel. You CANT change how you feel and if you could,
people wouldn't have the problems in relationships they do. If you feel like
maybe this truly isn't what you want in a relationship, it's time to leave.
I know it's hard expecially if you have been with them for a long time, or
are worried about finding that right person, or for the fear of being alone.
And the answer to that is that's normal. You may be affraid, but the longer
you drag a unhappy relationship, the more unfair it is to the other person.
Or you can stay with them, and always think well what if I broke up with
them when I first had these feelings? The longer you stay with them the harder
it will be for them, and thats not fair to either of you. Love is a two way
street, you either want to love them and be with them, or do both of you
a favor and get out. When you start to fall out of love Bad things can happen,
cheating is the number one of things that happens when you fall out of love.
And if you cheat that is a Red flag that that person really isn't for you.
You don't hurt people you love and if you do you don't love
them.
**
Breaking Up : Should We Break Up? :
breaking up
if your not sure weather he or she is
not the right one for you or you like somone else who think is the one for
you. Tell that person that it isnt working out and that you need time to
think about your relation ship. Im in that situation at the moment and i
love the guy but i like a guy who goes to my school and i think that the
person who is closer to me is the right one for me. Also tell them that can
you stay friends and thta your sorry but your not sure that your relation
ship might not work and that you need time to think and thta you might want
them back if you think that youer relation ship is ok. Dont be scared to
tell thtat person that your relation ship might be bad if your scared get
a reliative or a close friend to do it.
**
Breaking Up : Should We Break Up? : But
what if you still don't know?
All these tips offer the common sense
perspective that you need when breaking up, but how come, to me, a person
deciding whether to carry on with the relationship or not, does not of this
seem to matter?
How do you know if it is you who is
being put down by the partner? If they tell you it is all in your head, why
not believe them. They are the person you trust enough to get serious with
in the first place. My partner has never cheated, he is honest, intellegent,
selfless. I am the opposite. I am weak and not good enough. I just want to
be with him, and that isn't enough for him anymore. I hate being so unsure.
Because I am a rational person. I am intellegent when it comes to things
academic. He tells me I shouldn't act the way I do. That I have no social
skills. He tells me I am wrong. And i believe him, i believe it really is
true. Im sure it is. and that just makes my shyer and more reclused. I thought
he was putting me down, making me down, but he doesn't see it. No matter
what I say he has an answer. He has a way of making everything my fault.
But I cant live without him. I love him. Why is love so complicated. So
contradictory. I'm sorry this isnt a tip, but i just wanted people in a similar
situation to me, that everything will be ok, and you arent the only
one.
**
Breaking Up : Should We Break Up? :
Don't date on the rebound
If you're thinking of breaking up, don't
wait until you've found someone else. It's important to get over one relationship
before starting the next. How do you know when you're ready for another
relationship? You're ready when you don't need one. You should be able to
sustain yourself without always thinking how much better life would be with
someone in your life. Wanting to share your life with someone someday is
fine, but thinking your life is miserable without a partner is just setting
you up for all kinds of problems. Deal with yourself first, and get the special
someone later.
**
Breaking Up : Should We Break Up? :
When it's time to break up
ok i have been thinking about breaking
up w/ my bf for about 2 out of the 4 months we've been dating, and i realize
now that i should have dumped him a long time ago, like, when skool got out
and i suggested breaking up so we'd be 'free' over the summer, but he's so
indecisive that we just stayed together. i now have to face breaking up w/
him after dating him for even longer than i did then. So if you think that
you're in a bad relationship or if you just want to break up, you need to
sit down with him or her and do it!! it's not worth waiting and dragging
out something that's not gonna work. like me, you might be afraid of hurting
them, but trust me, it's better for both of you, and i know you've heard
this over and over, but take my advice just do it...you'll feel a lot better.
but only rush into breaking up if ur absolutely sure it's what you want...well
i'm no dear abby but i hope this tip works for ya!

Breaking up
If you could change anything about your
breakup with a former spouse, what would it be?
(RESPONSE)
Re: Breaking up
Not have married her to begin
with.
(RESPONSE)
Re: Breaking up
I would have had the maturity to just
break things off instead of cheating. We weren't meant for each other, and
we're both happier apart, but I made things more difficult than they had
to be.
(RESPONSE)
Re: Breaking up
To accept the fact that its over. And
to walk...no...run really fast away. And not look back!
(RESPONSE)
Re: Breaking up
Should not have gotten involved in first
place, definetely let should have let agape rule over eros
(RESPONSE)
Re: Breaking up
Letting go has to be one of the most
difficult life lessons. I wish I hadn't let the marriage last 16 years and
that I had taken the first step towards dissolution. As it was, after all
that time there were so many dissapointments along the way that being presented
with papers was just another way of feeling victimized instead of empowered.
Took me a long time to get my "mojo" back.
(RESPONSE)
Break ups
I have been divorced twice. If I could
change anything, I would learn to negotiate the stormy sea of divorce by
avoiding the ship-destroying rocks of resentment and bad feelings. Why couldn't
partners who started out as my best friends still remain friends? What did
I need to do to negotiate these waters?
(RESPONSE)
Not
I wouldn't have ended my marriage. I
was immature, self-centered, and didn't appreciate my dear
mate.
(RESPONSE)
Breaking up
I would have been more assertive about
what I needed instead of passive agressive. I would have tried harder to
overlook some of his issues that irritated me. I wouldn't have given up so
easily.
(RESPONSE)
breaking up...
isn't all it's cracked up to
be!
(RESPONSE)
Breaking Up.......
Mine never happened.....lots of times
it seemed appropriate, but alternatives were lacking, or an obligation deterred
us....so here we are, "celebrating" fifty years of marriage. What a crock.
There should be term limits on marriage.
(RESPONSE)
The Bitter with the Sweet
On the subject of what I'd do differently
in splitting up with a spouse:
I wouldn't have given up the opportunity
to know him. We had many good times together. But I would've left him sooner.
Since I left he's faced down his demons and defeated them. And while I'm
glad his life is back in order I'm proceeding with the divorce because it's
the right thing to do for me.

Combination of Loss and Humiliation May Trigger Depression
By Jennifer

Breaking up is not only hard to do,
but a romantic split may also be especially hard to handle and possibly trigger
a bout of depression. A new study shows romantic breakups can literally add
insult to injury by piling humiliation on top of loss, dramatically increasing
the risk of depression.

Heartbroken Wife
Dear WholeFamily
Counselor,
My husband says he only loves me sometimes.
He doesn't even want to come home, even when I am not at home! When I am
at home he says the reason he does not want to come home is because he "does
not want to put up with me."
He says one day that he wants a divorce,
and the next day he doesn't. I do not want a divorce, I love my husband very,
very much. I would like him to love me again!
Please help me if you
can.
Desperately, depressed
wife
Dear Depressed Wife,
You describe certain facts that suggest
that your husband doesn't love you anymore, and yet you still love him
desperately. You do not give information about your couple
relationship.
- How long have you been
married?
- Did you get married out of mutual
love?
- Do you have children
together?
People don't stop loving each other just
like that. Falling out of love is a process, like falling in love. It may
be a long process, and, if you look at it carefully and sincerely, with your
eyes wide open, you will be able to see and understand what brought you both
to this situation in your marriage.
It is always important, even necessary,
to look back in order to understand the roots of the current
problem.
Here are some questions that may clarify
what I mean by 'trying to look back in order to understand':
1. When you got married, what was the
contract between you and your husband? On what basis did you make your emotional
commitment? What were your mutual expectations?
2. Have these expectations been satisfied
or answered, or have you been disappointed?
3. What kind of relationship do you manage
to have now?
- How do you communicate?
- Do you talk openly to each other or
do you keep your feelings to yourselves? - Do you share thoughts that may
make you feel uneasy, like fear, jealousy, anger, lack of confidence
etc.?
- Or do you communicate through negative
and bad thoughts or feelings, more than through love, openness, appreciation,
reinforcement etc.?
- Are you aware of having conflicts
between you and are these conflicts put on the table?
- Or is everything 'under the
carpet'?
- When you argue (if you argue), how
do you end your fights?
- Are you able to apologize and resolve
the fight?
- How do you make up?
- Do you share common
interests?
- How is your sexual life together?
Is it worse than it was at the beginning and, if yes, why?
- Besides your marital relationship,
how is your life in general? Are you satisfied with it?
After asking yourself all those questions,
my suggestions to you are:
1. Stop being desperately depressed
and start to look at reality as it is. Despair, depression, and self-pity
are overwhelming you and paralyzing you from reacting and doing something
to make a change.
2. Have the courage to open a dialogue
with your husband to discuss the issues which bother you, but present yourself
as a thinking and rational woman, not as a desperately depressed wife. Tell
him what you are willing to do in order to keep the marriage, and what you
are not willing to take anymore. And of course, listen to what your husband
has to say.
3. This can be the beginning of a new
contract between you, based on expectations that are more realistic. Have
the courage to see what is wrong in your relationship and to evaluate the
things that you want and can change.
4. Start to live your life: invest yourself
in work, studies, hobbies, friends, family etc. Take care of yourself by
doing exercise, eating well and thinking positive thoughts to give you strength
to continue and prevent despair and depression. You can become an active
participant in your life by choosing to do what feels good for
you.
Good luck,
Arlette Simon, MSW

Question
i'm an 18 yr old who just recently (4
days ago) broke up with my b/f of 1yr&7mos. we still call eachother when
we get upset about it b/c we agreed to try to be friends. (i'm his first
g/f) i broke it off b/c i want to start seeing other people and seeing what
else there is out there (but i didnt tell him that) and i just dont feel
the way i used to feel about him. he calls me hysterical crying, i just feel
sooo bad and hate the fact that i'm the one that hurt him. we sometimes talk
about getting back together, but i honostly dont think i want to. any advice
on how to help make him feel better without me and to get us both through
this? (p.s.- i asked you this question b/c i need to hear a guys point of
view on this, since i'm trying not to hurt my ex-guy anymore than i have
to). thnx!
Answer
I tell people I like to be people's
friends forever, yet forever is a hard word to keep. However, I know when
I marry, I will make this forever for I can live with the up's and down's
of the hard road, yet in dating we must answer the question if he or she
is the one we can spend the rest of the life with so the road is a drop better.
You said you can't spend the rest of your life together and this is fine.
You and him will move on, yet you can still be both friends. My advice is
help him find another girlfriend. Good luck and ask follow
ups.

Question
Is it proper to give someone a "Dear
John" letter? And if so, should this be handed to them or
mailed?
Thanks!
Answer
A letter is always the last way to do
it. Its better then just ignoring the person.
The best way to break up is to be face
to face and with honesty. Honesty can hurt a little at the time but is always
better in the long run. Being honest alows both of you to grow from the
relationship.
The next would be on the phone so at
least its voice to voice. Again being honest is the best way.
Then a letter. The problem with a letter
is the person writing the letter knows what they are trying to say but the
person reading the letter might not view the words in the same way as the
writer. It opens the door to very hurt feelings that could be smoothed over
if done face to face or on the phone.
The worst way to break up is to just
ignore the person. That always hurt everyone. It doesn't let both people
deal with the break up. The only time this can be an option is if the person
is abusive and talking about this could bring you harm.
I hope this helps.

Breaking Up and Moving On
From Mike Hardcastle
8 Things that will heal a broken
heart.
Breaking up is never fun. The end of
a relationship means the beginning of a period of mourning and healing for
both people. If the break up was mutual both people will experience a period
of adjustment where they are getting used to no longer being together. If
the break up was not mutual the person who ended things may be dealing with
guilt and feelings that they may have made a mistake. The person being broken
up with will definitely have to adjust, first to being rejected and second
to life without somebody they still care for. How do you get through those
first few weeks? Here we list eight essential things everybody must do in
the early days of a break up to let the healing begin.
1. Avoid the former love.
2. Talk out your feelings with close
friends.
3. Cry if you want to.
4. Let go of mementos.
5. Dont slip up and get together
with your ex.
6. Focus on all the things about your
ex that drove you crazy, turned you off, or that you just plain found
annoying.
7. Think about the mean, cruel or rude
things your ex may have done in your relationship.
8. Maintain a strict no contact policy
and stick with it.
