These Are The Worst Times to Break Up With Someone

Okay, we get it- you’ve had enough of your relationship and you’re ready to break up with your partner. You’ve genuinely tried to make things work, but it seems like whatever was keeping the relationship has given up and the happy ending you had in mind with this person was only a poorly written movie.

However, when it comes to breakups, timing is essential. You surely do not want to be the villain in someone’s story, and even though you might still end up being painted as one anyway, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing that it was out of their pettiness and not your sheer wickedness.

Here are the worst times to consider breaking up with someone:

Before or on Their Birthday

You have to be a special brand of evil to break up with someone on his/ her birthday. Think about it- they’re fantasizing about receiving gifts, a delicious cake and a tempting lunch platter, only to receive two paragraphs and five emojis on WhatsApp, announcing your decision to end the relationship. That’s a classic Nollywood villain move and they might curse you on their birthday every year. Do you want that?

On Valentine’s Day

The most romantic day in the world is only a few weeks away, and while people are pulling all the stops to demonstrate their love, you want to shatter someone’s heart? Please, dear. If you go ahead, don’t be surprised if you wake up one day to a thread on Twitter exposing your wickedness.

During Exam Season

Now, this is just cruel. No one deserves to struggle to read their notebooks through a blurred vision caused by blinding, tears simply because you chose to break up with them during their examination period. Don’t you want them to get a good GPA? Don’t be wicked, beloved.

When They’re Going Through A Tough Time

Now, this is a no-brainer. It’s terrible to break up with someone when they’re going through a tough time, such as a health challenge, loss of a loved one or a job loss. It might be hard to wait for them to recover from what they’re going through but it’s the reasonable thing to do.

When You’re Out with Friends or Family

Breaking up with someone in front of other people? Are you the devil incarnate? Respect your significant other enough to break up with him/ her decently and in private. Doing it in public only makes the situation worse, leaving them feeling ashamed, embarrassed and disrespected.
