Break-ups

We all have or will have to deal with a break-up at some point in our lives, be it a temporary or permanent one. As the name suggests, something generally gets broken; a friendship, a close bond or a heart. A mutual break-up may be easier to handle but it will essentially still hurt for the simple fact that there is still a lost. You may miss spending time with the person just hanging out or miss something about them or the way they did things like the way they laughed or smiled. Everytime you think about it, it will hurt.

Okay fair enough, that happens and you can live with that because you were part of the decision to break-up, but what happens in the case that there was a big falling out and it was a one sided break-up where only one person made the decision to break up? In this case it probably is immensely painful for the 'dumpee' (person being dumped). The thing about the dumping is that the person doing the dumping doesn't care much about how they go about doing it and this is how the break-up becomes even more painful. It's a break-up, Yes, but remember this is someone you once cared about. All that said, there is a good way and a bad way to dump people.

I'm going to list the top 5 worst ways to dump someone starting from number 5 to the worst way to dump someone with its corresponding possible interpreted message by the 'dumpee'.

5: AN EMAIL- "I don't feel like hearing you or seeing you so I think I can say what I have to say right here."

4: A TEXT- "One text is enough for me to say what I gotta say to you, just so you know I done!"

3: MESSAGE BY FRIEND- "I can't be bothered with you anymore so I'm sure my friend can deliver my message without me having to waste any more of my time or effort on you."

2: FACEBOOK- "I'll just change my status on facebook from 'in a relationship' to 'single' or to 'in an open relationship' and all my friends on facebook can see I'm available and I guess you can see too."

1: PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT- "Why only just tell you when I can announce it to everyone so everyone knows? I can just do it at a party or something so that all our friends get the info the same time."
