A lot of people are very eager to give break up advice, yet very little of them actually know what they are talking about. Even the closest friends sometimes give the silliest post break up advice. If you are going through a rough break up, you might have heard a billion times the “You`ll just have to forget him” or a “What are you so sad about? Be happy that you finally got rid of that loser” etc. While our friends have the purest motivation to help us move on, often they just don’t seem to find the right words. Because they care such a great deal for us, they tend to advice us with their hearts too, and not their minds. While they mean that you are of a much higher calibre than your ex was, they will actually qualify him as a loser. Often it is not what we say, but how we say it that will have an impact. Same thing goes for after break up advice. It is not easy to find the right words, and even less to say them without letting our emotions get in the way.
Personally I find that often it is individuals of the opposite sex that give the best relationship break up advice. For some reason they tend to help us to look at the past relationship from a different point of view. While it is not the best idea to confine in your ex boyfriend’s best friend, you can do so with an opposite sex friend of yours or a well trusted co-worker. You might be surprised of how contrasting their insight on the situation might be. The only obstacle, is that men , are not the best at expressing their thoughts and feelings, and it might be a little harder for them to communicate their opinions as opposed to female “chatter box” friends.
If you are looking for a breaking up advice literally, meaning unsure of a way to put an end to a relationship. Put yourself in your partner’s shoes and imagine how you would take it, if you were him/her. Remember, karma exists and you want to be as delicate as you can when putting an end to a relationship. Do what you would want to be done to you. And remember, the “It s not you, it’s me” clichés do not work, and they are perceived as a simple brush off. You do what you have to do, but do it wisely!
