Let's face it, breaking up is hard 2 do 4 both parties, but there r some ways of handling e situation tt can make it better. here r some some golden rules of breaking up:Tell e truth don't think you can make e situation better by saying something like "i think we need a break n then we can gt back together again in a few months."Be kinddon't be tempted 2 say "well i never really liked u anyway." Just 2 try 2 make it easier 4 yourself. don't sae things tt u don't mean or which u know rn't true.Don't go out wif someone else b4 u split upeven if u like someone else, u should end 1 relationship b4 starting wif another boy. tt way, u should minimize e hurt 4 all of u - n help keep your reputation intact.Don't tell taleswhen u split up, don't start telling other people your bf's secrets n e things he told u in private. it is jus plain mean. n worse still, he could get his own back n start doing e same thing 2 u.Stay coolalthough u may be tempted, do not create a big scene by insulting each other. do your best 2 avoid any kind of ranting n raving. n try 2 control your voice - n tt temper 2^. you'll come out 4 e better in e end.Don't break up in front of your friendsdon't even think about a public showdown - under any circumstancesKeep clear of himonce u've actually broken up, don't hang around in e same places where u used 2 go wif him - at least 4 a while anyway. give each other some space 2 get used 2 e split.Don't break up if u don't mean itu'll hurt him really badly if u expect him 2 take u back at a later date. n he may hurt u by telling u something u don't wan 2 hear.Don't hidewhen u see him in future, even if it's wif another girl. don't just ignore him. u'd be better off saying a friendly "hi," n then carrying on wif wadever u were doing. this shows u're over him n onto your own thingHave a good cryeven if it was u who made the decision to split, u may be feeling really bad. so go ahead n have a good cry on your best friend's shoulder - or maybe alone in your bedroom. u'll probably feel much better after letting go of your emotions.Write it downu may also feel better if u write down hw u feel in your love journal. if u feel angry, writing about it could cool u off. if u feel really sad, pouring out your thoughts could clear your head. wadever your feelings nw, writing about them confirms how much e love u used 2 have meant 2 u while it was still good.
