How To Break Up With Her And Still Be A Gentleman - 9 Breakup Advice Tips For Men


You have plans to dump your girlfriend? How do you end the relationship and still look like a gentleman? Here you have 9 tips for dump her and remaining a gentleman.

Tip 1- Tell her before you tell anyone else. Drop hints that you aren’t satisfied with your relationship. Have “relationship talks” or just ask leading questions from time to time. Don't spend as much time with her as you used to be. And, tone down the spending. If you buy her an expensive piece of jewellery and then dump her, she won’t know what to think.

Tip 2 – Tell her before you tell anyone else. If she finds out from your friends (or worse, hers) that you’re moving on, she’ll hate you forever. If you still have feelings for her but are no longer in-love with her, tell her. She deserves your honesty and you will be dumping her and remaining a gentleman.

Tip 3 – Break up in a neutral place wherever you choose to dump her, be sure it isn't her home. And, when you break up at your place, you are shifting the power dynamic in your favour. So, when at all possible, break the news some place neutral.

Tip 4 – Break up in person- Breaking up any way except in person would in no way help you remain a gentleman. Text messaging is a great way to communicate a lot of the time-this is not one of them. You owe it to her to tell her that you don’t want to see her any longer. You have to be there for her one last time.

Tip 5 – Keep it simple. Tell her directly that you don’t want to see her. Be prepared to answer the "why now" question because she will most likely ask it. But, don’t feel you have to relive the entire relationship through the break up process.

Tip 6 – Let her know what's going on with you. If you can make her see your perspective on things, she is likely to be able to cope with the break up afterwards better.

Tip 7 – Make a clean break-If you are ready to leave-leave. It is likely that she will ask you to reconsider. She may do this at the time you break up or she may do it through texts, calls, and in person meetings afterwards. (Or, she may do both.) Remember that things aren’t going to change if you get back together. There’s a reason you want to break up. Stick with your decision.

Tip 8 – Time it right. There's never a perfect time to dump someone. But there are times that are worse than others. If you dump her before a major holiday (Christmas, Valentine’s, Birthday, Anniversary), you are going to look like you just didn’t want to buy a gift. Be sensitive to what is going on in her life at a particular time. Don’t dump her the week before final exams or right after her granddad has gone into the hospital for triple bypass surgery. If necessary, take a deep breath and stay with her a little longer.

Tip 9 – Be prepared for tears. She's going to cry and you know she's going to cry. So, have some tissues ready when you break the news. Be prepared for her to cry and don’t get too emotional about it yourself.

Remember, it is going to be tough on her when you call it quits. That is why you should follow the breakup advice in this article.
