Breaking up is never easy. In the article we will tell you what is better to say to the partner with whom you want to break up.

What's the best way to break up

Inform about the breakup in person, looking into your eyes, saying everything that is important for you to say.

A special meeting in a restaurant or other special place is not necessary; additional preparation and rituals increase general anxiety.

Don't soften the conversation, it confuses and gives hope. Speak through I-message.

Just tell your partner: “I wish I could give you this.” Remember that forgiveness is a difficult and long process.

There are times when a person cannot forgive something.

You should not reproach yourself for this and feel guilty.

Other people's emotions and reactions are not subject to our control.

Give the person the opportunity to experience their feelings; do not expect any specific reaction to your words or actions.

Admit that the relationship has run its course.

Share your experiences and emotions, what doesn’t suit you.

Try to calmly justify your decision and express your regret.

Ask your partner to respect your personal space and respect your partner's boundaries.

Listen to the other person carefully and give feedback.

If you're ready to reconnect, don't focus on the past.

Let your partner know if you are willing to continue your friendship and be a presence in their life.
