Let’s face it- it sucks being the one getting dumped. Even though you probably will not say it out loud, we know you wish you could have been the dumper. However, like many others you probably do not notice the small giveaways that indicate that he is losing interest in you.
Yours truly cares deeply about all you girls and wants you to be the dumper and not the dumped, which is why she brings to you a list of signs that tell you that it’s over.
Your relationship is a Taylor Swift song
Insert lyrics of We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together by Taylor Swift here*. When he keeps saying that he needs space, or that he believes you guys need a break, or any other equivalent of a “temporary breakup”, he actually means that “I’m not feeling this anymore, so after not talking to you for a week, I’m just going to ask you to not get back together”. Another telltale that Taylor so sweetly pointed out is when your relationship becomes one of those on-and-off types. It is best not to cross over to that endless cycle of tears and weight gain through consumption of comfort food.
The word “K”
How do you talk to someone who is boring or someone you do not particularly enjoy talking to? You probably use one word answers like “Okay”, “Yeah”, “IDK”, or “Meh”. Now, I believe it is pretty obvious to you what it means when your guy gives you answers like that. It is even worse if he texts you “K” instead of even bothering to type out the word “Okay”!
Long time, no talk
When a relationship loses its spark, the people involved in it start to become very distant. They stop talking everyday and texting each other “good morning” or sending those occasional selfies to show how the other person is being missed. Hence, if you have already gone through a week without talking, it is high time for you to have a talk with your boyfriend!
OMG it is 3 o’clock. Let’s break up!
When someone does not want to be in a relationship with you, they will start fishing for excuses, and trust me when I say this- some of them actually do have the audacity to use anything ranging from how you eat your pasta to your choice in music as reasons to breakup.
Depressing Facebook posts
And here is the last, but now the least. People do not share depressing things on Facebook only after going through something sad. Their post might sometimes be about you and how they feel in the relationship. So when he shares a post about a list of qualities he believes a “true girlfriend” should have, but it is quite evident that you do not possess any of those so-called traits, you know it is time to have “THE TALK”.
