Rebecca 0 #3 January 11, 2006 If they're thousands of miles away with no face-to-face meeting anytime soon, and you know it's over, it doesn't matter. Just do it. On the phone is probably best - next best thing to in person. Whatever you do, DO NOT string them along!!! I got strung along for the last four months of a relationship while I was in EUROPE for God's sake. I could have been having fun instead of being faithful to that douchebag. you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk?

wmw999 2,587 #5 January 11, 2006 Phone. It's more personal, and more respectful. You're doing a very personal thing if it's gotten serious, and, well, they're less likely to keep trying if you talk to them in person and make it clear that it really, truly, honestly is over.

SkymonkeyONE 4 #6 January 11, 2006 You didn't say anything about people who are in online "relationships" without ever having laid eyes on the person. Those breakups are possibly the most pathetic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #7 January 11, 2006 Specatcularly and publicly. I think you should announce on Bonfire (in multiple threads, if possible) what an asshole/bitch he/she is, making sure to paint yourself as completely blameless.
