How to break up like a man
Face-to-face is the only way
How to break up like a man? You need to confront and do this face-to-face. Refer to breaking up without reason.
Don't even consider options like running away, writing a letter, or texting full of sentiment. Those methods aren't manly at all. If you and she have been dating for over 2 weeks, it means your bodies have exchanged a significant amount of hormones. That means you owe her an explanation. Refer to Breaking Up But Still Texting.
This explanation should not be done over the phone, not through text messages, or through any chat application. It must be face-to-face, without a doubt.
No one wants to see others in pain or crying. Especially if it's a scene directly hitting you in the face.
But let me reaffirm once again: Breaking up with your girlfriend like that is only for cowards and not worthy of being a man!
Breaking up using those methods ABOVE does NOT make her feel more comfortable. In reality, it makes you feel more comfortable.
More comfortable because you don't have to see her in pain.
More comfortable because of the genuine sense of relief.
More comfortable because that way of breaking up is so easy. Refer to Signs of a Permanent Breakup.
But in reality, you're running away...
So that's it, mission accomplished, right? Next up, meet up with some buddies at the bar. Have a good time, and the next day everything will be a fresh start, putting an end to years of love.
But that's not how you break up with your girlfriend. That's how you run away. Because women will never accept your breakup words. She'll go crazy and want to meet you. To make sense of this whole mess.
Not only are you showing a lack of respect, but you're also seriously damaging her psyche.
If you break up like a man, she'll remember a lot about you, about the beautiful memories of the two of you. But if you run away from the breakup. All she'll remember about you is the bitter and unclear breakup.
You owe her a clear explanation.
Without a clear explanation, many people continue to suffer for many years afterward. They can't do well at what they used to do. Can't be happy. Can't embrace new love.
The best way to break up with your girlfriend: Be honest and clear. Let her know that love has ended. You no longer love her. You feel tired and don't want to continue.
Act like a man
She might cry, scream, break things, or do many bizarre things right in the middle of the crowd. This behavior can vary depending on her personality and the extent of her love for you.
However, you need to stand there and take it all. Patiently, calmly, and empathetically.
No single word can change the current situation. You need to stand there and endure all the anger and frustration without reacting, because she deserves that.
In this love, you've shattered her heart, let her have time to gather the broken pieces of her heart. If you try to do something, it'll only make these pieces more fragmented.
The most awkward situation is when she remains silent, completely silent. She may be in shock or emotionally unbalanced. If she leaves at this point, you should call your friends to come and pick her up. That's how to break up with your girlfriend decently and act like a man.
Clear breakups help everything heal quickly
Breaking up with your girlfriend isn't you granting her a favor. It's how to end things when love is over, you need to make everything clear.
It means you can't find a way to soothe her pain. Nor can you consider it as a temporary breakup. That this love only temporarily ends. Don't say, “We can still be friends,” or something similar that makes her think this bond still exists.
However, after some time, you and she can totally become friends. This is also the magic of relationships. But remember, it has to be the right time and long enough to make her forget you as a former lover.
The right time to break up with your girlfriend?
Before breaking up, make sure that breaking up means breaking up for good, don't think that breaking up and getting back together, after so many times, doesn't carry any weight anymore.
Moreover, breaking up means ending a relationship, whether long or short, you should think carefully so as not to regret your decision.
There are many reasons leading to breakups, if you feel that you can't go on together anymore, I advise you to choose a gentle and peaceful way to break up to avoid hurting each other.
After all, she's the girl you once loved, bonded with each other for a period of time, right?
You should think carefully and choose an appropriate time to say goodbye, avoid delaying it, the longer you wait, the deeper the girl will sink into emotions that are hard to let go of.
How to peacefully break up with your partner
Alright, now it's time to delve into this in more detail.
Mental preparation
Before breaking up with your partner, you should prepare yourself mentally first.
Both of you should take time to carefully consider this relationship.
If both of you are struggling to communicate, you can schedule a meeting to reassess the relationship and address any issues you're facing.
You should also be prepared in case the other person doesn't accept it. Give them time to rethink the relationship and the words you've spoken. While breaking up is never easy, it's important to be honest to prevent future hurt.
Of course, preparing mentally doesn't mean procrastinating. But you shouldn't just blurt out 'let's break up' without any context, as it lacks respect for the other person.
You don't need lengthy explanations as if you're justifying yourself. Simply state the reasons for your decision to break up, so they don't have lingering questions.
Avoid saying breakup excuses.
Out of 100 men who break up with their girlfriends, about 95 tend to make excuses. They either shift the blame away from themselves or overly emphasize kindness. You might think it's the right thing to do.
But no, reconsider. Speaking like that only leads the woman to belittle you. She'll think you're using excuses to break up and diminishing yourself in the process.
So, it's best to never use the following breakup lines:
'You don't deserve the love I have for you.'
'Being with you means I'll suffer a lot, which I don't want!'
'There are plenty of guys around me better than you.'
'You're too good for me, I don't deserve you.'
Then there's the classic 'I'll always remember you' along with 'This is a love I'll never forget.'
Blah blah blah
Instead, you should...
Speak decisively when ending the relationship.
What needs to be said, you must say, especially in matters of the heart. Be straightforward, but that doesn't mean lacking respect for your partner.
Show yourself as a man, not someone who breaks up via text because only kids do that. Also, don't disappear for a long time or choose hurtful words to say to your partner.
You should break up gently yet assertively. Your words should still convey mutual respect, but let's face it, breakups hurt. Some level of pain and hurt will always be there. But choose your words wisely!
Sometimes in relationships, being decisively straightforward is good for both parties; it helps the other person let go of any lingering hope.
Clear, decisive breakup statements are worth considering.
Below are some breakup lines, gentle yet firm. Though gentle, they're clear and decisive. And let me tell you upfront, if love still lingers, no matter how you phrase it, it's going to hurt the other person.
But it's the right thing to do. Living like that only brings suffering for both.
Alright, consider these breakup lines. The prefix might be different phrases you add in. But the message should be like this.
'I'm not ready for stability or long-term commitment right now.'
Yeah, she might think you're a jerk. But hey, that's the truth. She'll understand later. Everyone goes through different stages.
But isn't it true? You don't intend to marry her or anything, right? Typically, men know that from the start of a relationship.
'We're just too different. I thought we clicked, but we don't. I've tried my best, but I can't continue anymore.'
Everyone is different. That's the easiest reason to accept.
Straightforward breakup lines, no beating around the bush
'I don't feel happy/I don't feel like myself in this relationship.'
Men often dodge saying these things. But there's really no reason to avoid it. Let's just be honest with each other.
'I'm tired. I don't want us to continue anymore.'
This line works when the relationship is already cracking. Easy to understand, easy to accept!
Or, just speak your mind even if it sounds a bit harsh. But it's easier to be accepted.
'Currently, I'm not looking for stability. I still want to explore many other things in life. I don't intend to settle down before 35.'
'Oh, you're such a jerk. Why didn't you tell me that when we first started dating?'
But it's understandable. That's the truth that most men want. And you're just being honest.
In conclusion
No matter how you break up with your partner, it's inevitable to avoid hurt and pain.
So, after breaking up, you shouldn't inquire or send caring texts to each other anymore. Because this period is very sensitive, and it will affect their emotions to some extent.
You can wait for some time afterward, when both of you have cooled down. At that time, becoming friends again is entirely possible. But don't express the intention to be friends right away.
