Reasons You Should Breakup

Okay, maybe you shouldn’t do anything drastic just yet. Have a little chat if anything here bothers you before you then consider any next steps. I think a lot of times we get too far ahead of ourselves in the chase that we forget about the things that really matter. Someone might look really good on paper, and they might check most things off the mental list you’ve got going on about the most desired qualities in a person, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re right for you.

1. I’m not really a phone person, but I know someone is worth pursuing when I can easily spend a good hour on the phone without realizing it. If you aren’t compatible with someone, you more than likely wouldn’t think to pick up the phone and have a lengthy conversation because you just don’t know what you would talk about. With that said, texting is your standard means of communication. “How’s your day been?” “Good n you?”

2. You find it easy to get aggravated because your person is on a whole different page when it comes to knowing how you’re feeling.

3. You don’t get along with each other’s friends/spend the majority of your time sitting at home binge-watching re-runs of TV shows as opposed to going out and being social as a couple.

4. For that matter, you haven’t quite figured out how to be social as a couple.

5. You find it easy to hold a grudge after fighting, and possess a lack of trust as a result. Hot and cold gets you nowhere. You’re either hot, warm, or steaming.

6. The past has to stay in the past. That means that any and all exes shouldn’t ever be topics of conversation, and they definitely shouldn’t be calling just to catch up. For the most part, when two people are done and moved on, they end means of communication both out of a strong disinterest and overall respect for a new partner.

7. You have to consistently drop hints of what it is you’re looking for, and you’re often let down. This can be anything from “Please clean up after yourself”, to “Why is it that we’ve been in a relationship for a year, and you still don’t know what I like in bed?”

8. You still feel the need to “check” their social media, from best friends on SnapChat to recent followings on Instagram.

9. You spend your time venting to your friends about shortcomings in the relationship.

10. You come home from a not so great day, and either they don’t know how to comfort you, or you just don’t want them to.
