Question Best/ worst ways to finish with someone

I'm not implying that I want to finish with my boyfriend but I wondered what people thought of the best and worst ways to break up..

Is it better to break up thru a text or face to face or on the phone?

And whats the worst way to split up?

Face to face definately. Texts and internet are for losers unless you have a really valid reason (i.e. can't see them in person)

I completely agree with you..although I know from personal experience, that there can be barriers preventing people to sticking to their own morals...for me, it was a mix between being a long distance away, and thus face to face was almost impossible..

Yeah thats what I'd say

But from my experience it hurts less if you don't have to answer the person straight away but I'd never do it to someone else

Sleaping with someone else is often a good way to inform your soon to be ex-partner of the impending demise of your relationship.

I'd expect emails to be worse than texts although I have never been told that way.

If someone ignores your calls and stands you up do they deserve a text?! (Is that cruel?)

Well ok that might be fine but if you are ending it and it's not because someone has done something bad then you should respect them enough to tell them to their face.
