"get out of my house" is all I need. - pirlok, on 08/14/2008, -0/+60i think he meant one bullet for her.
- BetterOffEd, on 08/14/2008, -1/+48One nugget of real ***** here:
If you're *really* in a real, committed relationship with someone, you cannot just instantly be friends immediately. Even if you're the one ending it, you don't want to hear about who your ex is dating now, how they're moving on, etc. In time, perhaps you can be friends after you've both moved on, but trying to force a casual friendship immediately after a breakup *never* works. - diggopolous, on 08/14/2008, -0/+36
You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don’t need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don’t need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free - nymphetamine, on 08/14/2008, -12/+43One bullet.
- inactive, on 08/14/2008, -4/+35Stop paying for diggs.
And stop accepting offers for paid diggs. Your worthless, content-lacking comments really give you away. - robEstyles, on 08/14/2008, -1/+28Welcome to dumpsville. Population you
- LogicBomB, on 08/14/2008, -0/+22Easiest way I know:
"We need to talk. I hate to say this, but I think we should stop dating, I just don't feel I love you the way I thought I did and it wouldn't be fair to you if I kept going on letting you think I felt something that I no longer do."
You can then take this into "friends" territory or "go our own ways" territory. In the end the person SHOULD respect the way you ended it. - biner77, on 08/14/2008, -2/+22The best way to get over someone is to get under someone else.
- zantos420, on 08/14/2008, -2/+19or while getting it on whisper in her ear "your sister is better"
gets 'em everytime. - sindex, on 08/14/2008, -2/+18***** ***** spam. Read the first 8 comments or so. Bury, bury bury.
- awflasher, on 08/14/2008, -7/+22It's hard for me.
I was so depressed after my first love left me.
However, after about 2 years, I though I was so foolish. There are so many greater girls and my current girlfriend is much much better.
Anyway, It's not anyone's fault. It's just a wrong time and a wrong person you get. Don't blame for each other and be happy in everyday's life. - jawbreaker4fs, on 08/14/2008, -9/+23What is this doing on digg?
- wiseasgandalf, on 08/14/2008, -12/+25Wow, I've never read such a heartfelt and helpful article on something everyone faces: the end of a relationship. Really good reading.
- tommiwan, on 08/14/2008, -2/+15You know sometimes when you read a digg headline and you think it's going to be a funny article, or vid, but then it turns out to be all serious? That sucks...
- inactive, on 08/14/2008, -0/+11i had to break up with my long term live in bf because he got heavy into cocaine
from carrot juice to cocaine ! wtf !
anyone who has lived with a heavy drug user knows the non drugee ends up doing all the work to keep things together
so one night after after he had been out drugging all night he calls me and says 'i'm sorry i'll be home soon' and i said 'i don't think so' and changed the locks
he eventually got straight and healthy again so i maybe saved his life because he truly loved me and it was a shock to him when i said 'i'm done'
but even so i wouldn't take him back because i could never be sure he would not relapse and it was a horrible experience - DLindberg49, on 08/14/2008, -13/+24This one is really on the mark! In fact, it is amazing how detailed good advice Tina has one this while actually going through it! It's hard to believe you can keep your mind that straight while going through one of life's hardest emotional stresses. Keep the faith Tina and read your article every day while you go through this period. I went through a divorce from a marriage and relationship of more than 15 years with two children, the oldest being just 12 years of age. That was absolutely THE hardest thing I ever had to do... tell her that mom and I were going to get a divorce. Even typing this more than 16 years later, still makes me instantly remember the sadness of that day! Everything turned out fantastic and that was only though everyone holding on to a respect for each other. I am happily remarried to my best friend for more than 15 years and both my daughters are happy and well adjusted people. Time is THE only healer! Then respect for others feelings. For us, it was the ultimate love and caring for our children to forget any issues between us in order that they remain happy.
Thanks Tina for great insight and all the best to you. You WILL be fine.. give it time. - 4rp4n3t, on 08/14/2008, -0/+11Time and vodka. Lots of vodka.
- Terri84, on 08/14/2008, -8/+19I think that digg needs a "How to Start a Relationship" article better. Buried for anachronism.
- inactive, on 08/14/2008, -1/+11Now I just need the girlfriend...
- inactive, on 08/14/2008, -2/+12people get paid ?
ell me more :) - inactive, on 08/14/2008, -1/+11I just had a bad break up recently and it sucks - the lonely I have no friends cause I had a needy girlfriend feeling.
***** sucks. - fowleryo, on 08/14/2008, -2/+12tina, come get your ham
- britblogger, on 08/14/2008, -0/+10I can't help but raise an eyebrow at her writing about the "art of keeping a relationship" around July 9th, and then breaking up herself around August 13th (I'm going off the dates of the comments left on both articles).
- thugzilla, on 08/14/2008, -0/+10"How to End a Relationship"
Instant message them and then change your facebook status asap, derrrr!
That's how my ex ended our ENGAGEMENT. She dumped me over IM and I looked at Facebook a few minutes later and in the News Feed it said her relationship status had changed already. I guess she wanted to make it official. Had I not been devastated I would've laughed at the absurdity. I guess I dodged a bullet there. Flaky Bitch. - chuckDontSurf, on 08/14/2008, -2/+12Wait--this is the same chic who wrote that crappy piece chronicling her and her overprivileged, yuppie lover's spat while vacationing in India, going on and on about your "inner baby"? And now they've broken up? All I can say is, BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Buried. - Zipko, on 08/14/2008, -1/+10The first couple comments are spam. They all read like they're written by the same person.
"perhaps the best I've read on the topic." - Do you really go looking up articles on how to end a relationship and read enough to think this is the best? Or maybe you're just friends with the blogger and trying to get some traffic. - X9001, on 08/14/2008, -0/+9Not everyone...(crys)
- teh_spazz, on 08/14/2008, -1/+10Say "hey, we're over". Delete all pictures, phone numbers, emails, facebook, myspace. Then get under another girl.
- jmas9, on 08/14/2008, -0/+9That may be the best way to put it. Theres no way to argue that really.
- lnxfi, on 08/14/2008, -1/+9I hate it when you break up with someone and they won't let go. 10 phonecalls a day. 50 text messages just wanting to be friends.
You try to be nice, but eventually you just got to tell them to ***** off and go away, then you are the ***** for some reason. - Ljay90, on 08/14/2008, -0/+8Tell her that you had to read a blog to successfully come up with ways to end your relationship.
- BXRWXR, on 08/14/2008, -2/+10I do want to learn tips to minimize the pain for myself.
For the other person? Screw them, there on their own now.
/Bitter. - Haoie, on 08/14/2008, -5/+13Suicide, not the answer.
- sadisticmind, on 08/14/2008, -0/+8Mine usually get infected and have to be amputated
- BetterOffEd, on 08/14/2008, -0/+8You should really get out more.
- scamper22, on 08/14/2008, -2/+10i pretend its a she.
But to each their own... :P - mst3kcrow, on 08/14/2008, -0/+8A problem I had was the ex gf breaking up with me and saying "we can still be friends", I don't know why people don't get this but it's the wrong ***** thing to say in the same sentence as a breakup. Then she couldn't comprehend that I still had strong feelings for her, needed time, and she needed to keep her distance.
- o5rob5o, on 08/14/2008, -2/+93 year relationship
moved in together when i moved out to california
got in an argument every single day
she had to go back to school 1000 miles away
changed my cell number, ended up moving in 6 months
have yet to talk to her in 2 years. - quii, on 08/14/2008, -0/+7"Give them space. They will be hurt no matter what, so even if they appear fine on the outside, they are hurting. What they need now is time. Check up on them a few times in the beginning to make sure they are okay and to let them know that they matter. Remind them that you are here if they need your help to heal."
I would seriously hate that. On being dumped, the last thing I want to see is that witch being condescending towards me. - Brassbud, on 08/14/2008, -0/+7I don't think I've ever gotten over any of my breakups. I'm not saying I think about them all the time, or even ever, but if I take the time to stir up the memories, then the anger and hurt are just as they were then.
Except for the crazy chick who told me if I didn't believe in ghosts then I didn't love her...that one I'm alright with. - PDF84, on 08/14/2008, -0/+7I end my relationships like I start them...... with lots of alcohol.
- TheDreadDiggerD, on 08/14/2008, -0/+7It's the question.
- mlvassallo, on 08/14/2008, -0/+7This told me little about ending a relationship and more about why relationships end.
- simplyhealthy, on 08/14/2008, -11/+18A thoughtful guide to ending relationships with gratitude and respect.
- yournamehere, on 08/14/2008, -1/+7me: there's something wrong with my eyes
her: what's that?
me: I can't see me dating you anymore - Birdoftruth, on 08/14/2008, -1/+7***** the word "love". That word is tossed around too often it has no meaning. My GF knows I won't be saying that to her until I truly mean it.
"Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds" - Shakespeare - Sarevok9, on 08/14/2008, -0/+6Bring them to mcdonalds, tell them all they're personal belongings are in the dumpster, run for your car, lock the door. Leave the rest to prayer.
- woflox, on 08/14/2008, -0/+6I have exactly the same story as you with the added confusion of my ex's fiancee just recently leaving her, and her apparently not being over me and wanting me back...
*sigh* - hellsing47, on 08/14/2008, -1/+6what?
