Breakups are brutal and a majority of us have experienced at least one.
There are many ways to breakup with someone depending on your maturity level. Mature people will speak their minds out and break up in a cordial manner, where both partners understand clearly why the relationship had to end and get the closure they need. It’s supposed to be like that…but then again, there are so many ashy dudes out there that we give our hearts to and they end up taking us for granted. Some of these excuses of men are probably the reason why the phrase ‘men are trash’ was formed. And speaking of phrases, these are the common phrases they will use to break up with you.
1. “It’s not you, it’s me.”
Is this not the most cliché breakup phrase you will ever hear? Like, did I not even deserve some creativity?

2. “You deserve much better.”
Men use this excuse because it sounds low-key like a compliment. He will go on and say things like you’re too good for him and you deserve a lot more than what he has to offer. You know what? It’s bullshit. If he wanted to be a better man for you, he could. He simply wants to exit without making himself look bad.
3. “I’m just not ready for a relationship.”
Funny enough, this comes after you have already slept with him. How convenient!
4. “Look, I just got out of a relationship and I need time.”
So, why exactly is he trying to make boyfriend moves with you? Join Tinder bruh if you’re only looking to get laid.

5. “I have way too much going on right now.”
This could be true. After all, if someone has a lot going on for them and need to be alone for a while, it makes sense. Still, this should not be a reason to break up with someone you have been dating for a long time. If it’s a short-term boyfriend, don’t deceive yourself. It’s just a lame excuse and he probably has his eyes set on someone else.
6. “My religion doesn’t allow me.”
I recently met a guy who told me that he was a Jew and would definitely end up with a Jew. Lol unless you’re a dumbass, that statement speaks volumes. It means, “I just wanna get laid and hang out, nothing serious”. So, next time a man pulls the religion card, you know what to do.

7. “Our lives are going in different places…”
Kinda like I have so much going on right now. This is a selfish move if you ask me. Someone who really loves you will never give up on you. Even if he was moving to a different city or country, he would still include you in his life and plans. If he reacts any other way, he’s trash.
8. Ghosting.
Silence. No calls, no responses to your messages. He just goes MIA. This species of men has a special place corner in hell. No one deserves to be ghosted on. Ghosting can take an emotional toll on someone and even cause one to be depressed. The least you can do is exist with grace. Don’t be a coward.
9. “I can’t do this anymore.”
This is probably the easiest way to breakup. Think about it. If a man tells you this, what can you do to make him stay? When his mind is already made up? Probably nothing so might as well let him go right? Mostly happens after cheating. He’s being stubborn so that you let him go.
10. “I like you as a friend.”
Yeah…women are not prone to the good old friendzone too.

11. “I don’t want to hurt you.”
He probably genuinely likes you, but because of his ways and habits, he warns you in advance because he truly means it when he says that he doesn’t want to hurt you.
