Most of us know how difficult it can be to get to the point in your relationship when you feel like you want out. It's suffocating, you feel bad, you're a little annoyed, and you're wondering, "How am I supposed to do this?"
It can be even more difficult if a major romantic holiday like Valentine's Day is coming up or his or her birthday is fast-approaching. You don't want your significant other (hopefully ex by that point) to feel down on nor do you want to be stuck with a forced "romantic" date on V-Day because you didn't have the nerve to cut them loose.
What's the rule? Honesty is the best policy. Well, sometimes. Depending on your situation, honesty may not be such a great idea. Your health, physical or mental, might depend on the very words you use to end the relationship. We've collected a few various situations you might have found yourself in, and some simple (we hope) solutions to get out.

those issues!!!! Even though he was never physically abusive, I
think mental/emotional abuse is still very traumatic.
Even though I feel a LITTLE lonely around these hallmark holidays
(where apparently if you're single then something has got to be
wrong with you!)I'm still happier single than with an awful bf!!!
Power to all those to have had the strength to walk away!!!!
