Ending a relationship is very difficult especially if the decision isn't mutual.
It's one of the biggest challenges that people face in a relationship and is something that is dreaded by everyone.
However, ending a relationship now could save you tons of tears and regrets in the future.
If you are unhappy in your relationship, there is no more reason why you should stay and endure the loneliness.
Your only choice right now is to remain strong-believing that breaking up is a good decision for you and your partner.
As it never too easy to say that you want out, it helps to have some tips to remember when breaking up with your current boyfriend and girlfriend.
These tips do not guarantee that they will make things easier for you or your current flame, but they serve as guides in making the break up a less torturous one.

• Think hard why you want to bail out.
  Though all relationships deserve second chances, there are times when you simply have just had enough.
  Knowing your limits can help you sort out your relationship better.
  If you want to break up because of petty arguments, consider reconciling your differences before cutting the cord to your relationship.
  But if the same issues persist, it's time to make some action.
  
• Plan your exit.
  Breaking up with someone can be very emotional for both parties.
  Try to limit the time you spend on getting your message across without making your partner feel that you are trying to dodge things.
  Remain firm in your decision and explain why you've chosen to part ways.
  Save the dramatic sequences for the movies.
  Say goodbye and don't look back.
  
• Say it in person.
  With technology, it has become so easy to avoid personal contact and breaking up in person.
  Unless you are in a long distance relationship, you should not break up with your partner over the phone, through email or via text.
  Doing so is simply rude, and your partner deserves every ounce of respect that you have to offer.
  Arrange for a meeting away from distractions.
  It's best if you break up with your partner in his or her place so that you can leave once the message is delivered.
  
• Keep your emotions under control.
  Even if you're the one breaking up with your partner, you will feel very emotional too especially if the reason for the break up is cheating.
  State your reasons calmly but firmly.
  Keep to the facts and don't play the blame game.
  
• Expect a different reaction.
  Naturally, your boyfriend or girlfriend would be aghast if he or she doesn't feel the same way about the break up.
  Expect questions to arise and be prepared to answer them.
  Perhaps there will also be some crying or arguing involved.
  Get ready for those as well.
  If it comes to the point when threats are made, remove yourself immediately from the scene and inform family or friends of what had just happened.
  
• Make yourself scarce.
  Once you've delivered the bad news, it's time to move away from your ex.
  Don't contact your ex to ask how he or she is doing.
  Keep all communications to zilch to help you and your partner move on with your lives more easily.
  

Once everything has been said and done, it's time that you focus on yourself and not think about the past for a while.
Give yourself time to heal too before opening yourself up to a new relationship or giving both of you a chance to get back together.
