When you've decided to breakup with your girlfriend or boyfriend you have to make the decision of how to tell them.
For many reasons you may not want to tell them face to face or even over the phone.
A break up letter may be the best way.
Here are a few tips to writing a break up letter: 1.
Keep it simple Simplicity is the key word for writing a breakup letter.
Use short sentences and clearly state why you want to end the relationship.
A long, drawn out letter just makes it difficult for the person to accept what you are saying.
It is unwise to go into all the memories you've had.
Instead make a few (no more than three) clear points about how you came to this decision and end the letter.
A long letter may confuse your intentions whereas a short letter is crystal clear.
2.
Stay in the present When you write your letter avoid talking about all the fun times you had and writing about it in detail.
The good times should not be the focus of your letter because it will bring up feelings that you do not want to surface at this time.
Stay in the present and talk about what is happening now.
Discuss why the relationship is not working today and avoid talking about the day you met, the vacation you took, or anything that is unrelated to the situation right now.
3.
Ask them not to contact you Breakups have the potential of making people crazy.
It could result in non-stop text messages, emails, and phone calls.
Be clear in your letter that you will not want any contact with the person.
You must let them know that no contact includes texting, emailing, and phone calls.
Let them know that you both need time to process everything and move on.
Finally, STOP procrastinating and finally break-up! You're one click away from finally getting on with your life:
