Ending a relationship through text is kinda sad. It is avoiding confrontation aka not being a social person and hiding your true feelings.

She has been very kind to you, but that doesn't mean she can expect every guy to stay with her forever because she offered help. Life always changes and so does your view on things. You need to clarify to her that you have other goals in mind right now and she is not to blame for that. Be completely honest and tell you will always love her and she has a place in your heart. You can even stay in touch and help eachother our as friends if you feel like it to show your appreciation.

Telling her that "you'll always love her" is like giving her false hope for getting back together. Plus, that line is so cliché and cheesy. 

Loving her as a person, not a lover.

nope.

I'll be frank, that's a very chicken shit thing to do. If you actually care about her and respect her, break up with her in person. Be honest and don't lead her on with "let's be friends" if you don't intend to make good on that. I don't understand why people these days are so scared of confrontation.

Appreciate the advice from the thread. I got a chance to talk to her today and she was a bit annoyed but was understanding and she said she'd stop pushing me to do things I don't want to do so I decided not to end the relationship.

Wtf man? No, you don't text someone when you break up with them. Have the guts to go up to her and say you want to end it - no she probably won't take it well, but she'll get over it.



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

And nvm you already said you are staying together.

She seems to me to be that clingy/bossy kind of girlfriend.  Not good.  In some respects, they can be the worst.  Imagine if you married her.

She would just get more bossy/clingy.  Can she handle a few days without texting/calling you?  Does she bother you if your out with your guy friends?

Jason, be careful with this girl.  She may be more trouble than she's worth.  You owe her nothing.

It is a great idea to end a relationship via text. We are in the 21st century and we spend up to 12 hours staring at our smart phones every day. Modern technology has made life very easy and convenient to do what we want!
