What to Say When You Want to Break Up: Classy & Kind Options
One of the most difficult situations to be in is trying to figure out what to say when you want to break up with someone. You don't want to hurt the other person, and you may even still love them. Most people who experience a breakup are in pain — saying the right things can help make it easier. In some ways, it's easier to break up with someone if the person has done something awful to you. If your partner cheats on you, you have a perfect reason and no need to justify your decision to end things. However, life isn't always that cut and dried. Sometimes the signs of a relationship breaking up are more subtle and harder to understand. Sometimes you don't even know why it is you are breaking up — you only know you have to. Quick Tip Breaking up with someone kindly is about seeing the situation from their perspective. Before you sit down to talk, take a minute to think about how this will be for them. This can make it a little more painful for you, but it will help you choose your words carefully and show kindness during this difficult moment. We've got a few communication strategies that will help you know what to say when you want to break up. Related: Be Clear and Concise Everyone knows that "We need to talk" is a signal of an unpleasant conversation to follow, so try not to beat around the bush. Don't draw out the agony by going through all the reasons and then saying "... so that's why I think we should break up." Throughout the whole explanation, you are giving the person the false hope that you are still trying to make things work. Start out by being clear, and then go into the reasons why, if necessary. They may have come to the same conclusion — and a simple "Yes, I think you're right," ends the conversation. You can say: "I think we need to break up." "I feel like it would be best if we ended our relationship." "I haven't been feeling fully satisfied in this relationship and think it would be best if we broke up." "After some thought, I think we should end our relationship." "I no longer want to continue our relationship." Related: Be Open and Truthful You probably wouldn't want your partner to lie to you, so be realistic and truthful about why you are breaking up. If it's communication, tell the person where you think it broke down and be honest about it. If you simply grew apart, tell them honestly where you think your values diverged and why they aren't compatible. Most of all, if you don't really know why but you just need to break up, explain that as well. You can try: "I don't feel the same way about you as I used to." "This relationship isn't fulfilling my needs anymore." "I'm not comfortable staying together knowing that we are on two very different paths." "I don't feel right continuing a relationship that I can't see making it long term." "In thinking about our future, I don't think we are compatible in the long run." Quick Tip Remember that being honest is not an excuse to be cruel. For example, if your partner is no longer attractive to you, you don't need to say "I think you're ugly." Instead, you can say something that preserves your partner's dignity and treats them with kindness. Use Self-Reflecting Communication While "it's not you, it's me" may be true, it's basically a cliche now. Even so, you do want to try to use as many "I" statements as possible because "you" statements can easily come across as being accusatory. "You don't listen anymore!" blames the other person, whereas "I can't seem to communicate with you" takes some personal responsibility. Owning your feelings isn't the same as taking the blame, and most of the time, blame doesn't help anyway. Remember that sometimes life just gets in the way of even the most well-intentioned relationship, and just because a relationship is ending does not mean that it was a failure. People move on to new stages of growth throughout their lives, and there's no guarantee that they will always grow together. You can say: "I am having a difficult time communicating my needs to you, and I think I need to take some time to work on myself." "I don't think our relationship is healthy for me to continue being a part of and think we should break up." "I am feeling hurt by some things in our history, and I think it would be best to move on." "I do not feel confident in our relationship succeeding going forward." "I no longer feel happy in our relationship, and I think we should break up." Related: Sometimes the timing just isn't right or you love each other very much but can't see a path forward. It's not easy to know what to say when breaking up with someone you love, but remembering these things can help you find the right words: Separate your choice from your feelings. You can say, "I really love you, but this relationship is not going to work for me. I need for us to break up." Be very clear. Saying you love someone can easily send a mixed message, so make sure they know you are sure of your decision to end things. Allow yourself to grieve. Breaking up with someone you love is really painful. You can acknowledge that when you break up too by telling them this is hard for you. Forgive yourself. Even if the other person is mad or hurt, you're doing what you need to do to take care of yourself. You can say that if you feel like you're getting some blame. Resist the urge to speak for how you both feel or whether the relationship is "worth it" when you're breaking up with someone. A lack of clarity isn't kind either. Whether you're breaking up over text, in person, or on the phone, there are a few things you should not say: "I'm not really sure what I want." "This isn't worth the hassle." "This is better for both of us." "We can both do better." "You'll forget about me in a week." What is most important is not necessarily what you say to break up with someone but rather how you say it. When you're breaking up with someone, you both will likely be in a lot of pain — so try to say things as kindly as possible. If you can keep from lashing out at your partner in a defensive reaction, you will be much more likely to come to a mutual understanding of why the breakup needs to happen. That will help you both move on and leave your relationship to become a fond memory rather than a deep scar. Solve the daily Crossword

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom reunite on yacht in Italy after confirming breakup
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom are crushing co-parenting. The exes reunited in Italy over the weekend alongside their 4-year-old daughter, Daisy, in photos obtained by Page Six. The singer, 40, was spotted rocking a black bikini onboard a yacht on Saturday, with her former fiancé sporting black swim trunks. During one sweet moment, Bloom could be seen lifting Daisy into the air and kissing her cheek as Perry looked on. In addition to yachting with Bezos and his wife, Lauren Sánchez, Bloom and Perry put on a united front as they took their little one for a stroll — and some ice cream — in Capri. Perry paired her bathing suit top with an unbuttoned shirt and blue shorts during the outing, completing her look with flip flops and black sunglasses. Bloom, for his part, paired a white T-shirt with black shorts. The getaway comes one month after Page Six reported the couple's relationship is 'over' following nearly 10 years together. On Thursday, the pair confirmed the breakup via their reps — and revealed they would 'continue to be seen together as a family.' 'Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on coparenting,' the joint statement read. 'Their shared priority is — and always will be — raising their daughter with love, stability and mutual respect.' Before their breakup, Bloom and Perry had been together on and off since 2016, welcoming their baby girl in August 2020. News initially broke of 'tension' and 'stress' in their romance in June as the pop star took her 'Lifetimes' tour to Australia. Bloom, 48, was photographed briefly joining Perry and Daisy before he jetted off to Venice to attend Bezos and Sánchez's star-studded wedding solo. The newly single 'Lord of the Rings' star was photographed with Sydney Sweeney, Kim Kardashian and more A-listers at the extravagant nuptials. Perry pointedly posted a smiling social media upload clarifying her good 'mood' at the time. Sánchez commented, 'We miss you Katy.' The bride and Perry are close friends, with the American Music Award winner attending Sánchez's May bachelorette party in Paris one month after they went to space together. Bloom's attendance at the over-the-top ceremony reportedly felt like 'a 'f–k you'' to Perry as Bezos and Sánchez are 'really more her friends than his.'

19 Women Are Sharing Their Ex's "Quirks" That They Only Realized Were Red Flags After The Relationship Ended
Exes are exes for a oftentimes that reason is a red flag that can no longer be overlooked. A habit or behavior that may have seemed insignificant at the beginning of the relationship might become the catalyst that causes the breakup. However, in some cases, a person might not be aware of their ex's red flags until long after the relationship is over... So when Redditor u/IntrovertChapt3rs asked, "What's something your ex did that felt small at the time but now screams red flag?" Women flooded the comments with stories of their exes' red flags that they wish they had noticed sooner. Without further ado, here are 19 of their most enlightening responses: 1."He lied on our first date; it was a small thing. I caught him calling me the wrong name (he used a similar name), but he lied and said he didn't." "Looking back, there were other lies, too, or rather 'embellishments' of things that were happening. I tried to accept it and reason that he was trying to make the story cooler or funnier. A couple of times, I was like 'No, that didn't happen' and he would laugh it off and make some excuse for why he said certain things. He's an actor and performer, so I just thought he was dramatic and trying to be funny. Turns out he is a massive liar, manipulator, and gaslighter. I have no clue if anything he told me is true now." —u/okeydokeyartichokeyy Related: 2."This sounds dumb, but he used to buy things HE liked (like chocolate, for instance) and say he bought it for me. I would thank him, but not jump up and down in excitement, because, although it was for 'me,' it really wasn't for me. It was what he liked, and he would end up eating it. That happened for years." "Then during every fight, he would say it was impossible to make me happy." —u/onetoomanyexcuses 3."When a song came on the radio that I liked and was obviously enjoying, he'd change the channel, and when I protested, he'd pretend he couldn't find it again, and laugh. All the time." "A seemingly little thing, but so indicative of how senselessly cruel he could be for absolutely no reason." —u/jcpianiste 4."He told me to stop wearing makeup to work. He said it in a way that sounded so sweet, the whole 'Oh, you look so much prettier without makeup,' 'You're naturally pretty,' 'Makeup is so fake,' etc. The typical misogynistic reasons for disliking makeup." "Eventually, he said, 'Don't wear any makeup to work tomorrow. I'm gonna come visit you and I'm gonna see if you have any on, okay?' At the time, I found it endearing; I was traumatized and dumb. He actually came to check, which I thought was sweet. Throughout our entire relationship, he tore down everything I liked about myself. He told me to never wear my natural hair (I am a Black woman with an afro) and that I didn't have 'good hair' and looked unkempt when my hair wasn't 'done.' He made fun of all my clothes (I dress feminine and earthy) and made me stop wearing things I enjoyed. He also instilled a fear in me, knowing that he was always watching, always snooping. He frequently checked my phone and showed up at places to watch what I was doing. I knew if he told me not to do something, he would find out if I did it." —u/queenlee17 5."When we were first talking, I noticed every time I pulled out my phone to check my messages and reply, his eyes would be glued to my screen. It didn't bug me at the time, but I thought it was kind of odd, since I always look away from people's phones when I see them replying to messages because I don't want them to think I'm spying." "Fast forward a few months to when we're dating, he would constantly go through my phone. He was always snooping through my social media, hacking into my accounts to go through my messages, and making constant accusations. There were other red flags, but that one stuck with me for some reason." —u/creepygirl420 6."When I asked him about religion on the first date, he said he was figuring out what it looked like for him since he grew up Christian and in the South, but he downplayed it like he didn't practice (I have never been to church and don't plan to raise my kids in that environment, which I told him)." "We broke up six months later, and he went DEEP into his feelings about Jesus and told everyone he would never date someone who doesn't know the love of Jesus, etc. It felt like he had put on a mask, so I'd give him a shot. Heavily religious was a dealbreaker for me. Now that I look back on it, and after doing a deep dive into his social media after breaking up, he was VERY religious. It's a red flag to downplay something you're passionate about, and also a red flag that he stopped practicing and going to church for six months, when he was very religious." —u/groovinandmovinnn Related: 7."When I was in grad school, my ex and I were living together. It was a Friday night, and he had been drinking but ran out of beer and asked if I'd drive him to the store. So, we went to the store, he got his beer, and I picked up some ice cream. We paid separately because he felt strongly about men not paying for women (also a red flag)." "When we got home, he grabbed the grocery bags to take into our apartment (he had also bought some food items that needed to be refrigerated), and set them down on the counter. I asked if he was going to put the food away, and he said, 'Sure,' so I took a shower and went to bed. When I woke up the next morning, the grocery bags were on the counter, so I went to throw them away, only to find that he had put everything, BUT my ice cream (which was now a puddle), away. I got upset and asked him why he didn't also put away the ice cream. He said, 'It was yours, why would I put it away?' He looked truly dumbfounded as to why I was upset. I also later discovered that he never wanted to own a home or have kids because both were 'too much work.'" —u/farronheitteal 8."Making comments about how guys were supposedly staring at me while we were out in public. He'd always say it in a joking way, but I knew it wasn't a joke and he was obviously insecure." "It turned into, 'Are you really going to wear that?' and then 'Are you cheating on me?' Spoiler alert: He was cheating on ME! Honestly, he was a giant red flag, and I'm sorry I didn't notice it sooner." —u/BeatnikVandelay 9."Never had fun. He acted like a stick in the mud and would make fun of everyone for being so immature and not having their lives together. In reality, he just always needed to feel superior to everyone who was around." "I'm quite sure that he's still offended that I have not crawled into a hole and died without him taking care of me. Apparently, my success and happiness without him upset him so deeply that he had to revert to living off of his father." —u/psdancecoach 10."He asked me to lie to his parents about something small in a way that made me look bad (specifically, he asked me to tell them I was arguing with him via text when he got into a fender bender). At the time, we'd just started dating, and I didn't really care that much what they thought of me, so I did it." "He later used that and a few other similar instances to manipulate them into believing I was crazy, jealous, etc., after we broke up. He was really playing the long con; at the time these instances happened, we were perfectly happy together, but he was still hedging his bets. If someone asks you to lie for them, even about something that doesn't seem like a big deal, it is a total red flag. I wish I had realized that sooner." —u/riseandrise Related: 11."Once my partner and I were 'tickle fighting' each other, and I was winning, so he said stop, then grabbed my hair by the scalp and whipped my head back so hard my neck hurt for two days. He immediately started apologizing and said that wasn't what he meant to do, but because I had tickled him, it made him pull me harder than intended." "Looking back, I remembered the angry look in his eyes when he did it; it was definitely a moment when he got fed up and snapped. We weren't together much longer after a few more instances of him 'accidentally' hurting me." —u/Natural-Win-7354 12."When he would say, 'I try to be nice.'" "At the time, I thought that was personal growth in the making to be able to admit that. Turns out no, he was a walking red flag in very 'nice' packaging. As someone who IS nice, maybe to a fault, I never need to try. I want to be kind and help people, but 'trying' to be nice isn't something I ever have to do." —u/Sad_Marketing_Girl 13."He became wildly defensive during our first minor argument. He turned it around on me, and I ended up apologizing. I was shocked and confused because it happened so fast." "It happened again not long after, and his response to my feelings was FAR more extreme. He absolutely lost it and started calling me names, telling me I was being 'crazy,' and that I had done way worse things to him. When I shared our conversation with a close friend, who was also a therapist, she told me I was being gaslit. If someone can't handle slight criticism or refuses to apologize or take accountability for how they made you feel (not to mention actually giving a crap about how you feel), RUN." —u/Heregoesnothin 14."She talked about her exes all the time. Turns out she'd misled me about how long it had been since her last breakup, and she still kept connections with exes she'd described as predatory." "She was great in many ways, but still kept her past fully in our present. Lesson learned." —u/Plane_Translator2008 15."He would never let me have my 'moment.' I'd play music I wanted to share (it's like a love language for me), and he'd immediately have to play 'his song,' which was typically different than the vibe of my song. For instance, I'd play something alternative, then he'd choose a pop song from the 2000s, so I couldn't go back to showing him what I wanted." "I wasn't bothered by it until one day when I wanted to sing a song I'd practiced (I used to sing professionally) and he got mad because he didn't know the lyrics and couldn't sing along!" —u/Temporary_Piece2830 16."They would get mad when I didn't text back fast enough. I thought it was just because they cared, nope, they had control issues." —u/Impossible-Tackle935" "Yes, disguising control as 'concern' for your well-being. This is especially common with jealous, possessive, and insecure partners. If you don't respond fast enough to a text, can't answer the second they call, or God forbid you fall asleep without checking in first, it's always, 'Baby, I was worried sick' and 'I just need to know you're home safe,' etc., when they're actually monitoring your every move, keeping tabs, establishing control via curfews and rules, and putting you on a shorter and shorter leash. Before you know it, it feels like you need a permission slip to do anything or make any decisions on your own without prior clearance. Giant red flag and very difficult to overcome. I'm glad I'm out." —u/beau_hemian Related: 17."He was incredibly resentful of any success I had. He actively tried to interfere when I studied and tried to get me to not go to the award ceremonies when I was recognized for an accomplishment." "When we got married, he immediately quit his job and got ticked off when I insisted he pull his weight somehow. He'd accuse me of looking down on him and said that I was 'high and mighty.' I was because I thought he was a loser. I wasn't going to finance his life. He also constantly mooched off his mother. I couldn't even get him to go to the bank to deposit the checks himself. We were divorced in less than two years." —u/tekvenus 18."He wanted me to spend all my time with him and his friends. I was so dumb to be flattered. In reality, he just wanted to get rid of my friends (it worked.)" "He had a few female friends who were not part of his actual friend group and never hung out with us. Yet, he would flirt with them and talk sh*t about me. Whenever I ran into one of them, they would tell him that I had bullied them, and he believed THEM (it was the opposite)." —u/empress_p 19."He was a 30-year-old virgin who had never even been in a relationship, but that's not the red flag. I asked why he hadn't been in a relationship, and he said that all of the women he liked weren't into him." "He elaborated: The first woman he liked was in his gaming was her husband. They flirted, but the husband found out, and they left the group/my ex was kicked out. The second? He didn't know for sure if she was dating someone else, but felt there were signs she was. He pursued her, and she quickly announced that she was dating someone else. The third? A friend who was in a relationship. He drunkenly had his first kiss with her while she was with her boyfriend." "He only ever liked women in relationships. I just thought, 'Oh, what a poor guy, he has bad luck.' No. He was emotionally distant for most of our relationship, and when we broke up, twice, he blamed me and didn't talk to me, but requested we still be friends and had a fit when I said no." "The second time we broke up, for good, he blamed me. A month or two later, he told my best friend he liked her and wanted to pursue something with her while he and I still lived together. She called and told me. He lied and denied it at first, but I didn't drop the subject until he confessed that he had feelings for my friend for a while. Guess what? She was married." —u/CandleAngel Did any of these stories surprise you? Women, what are some "red flags" about an ex that you didn't notice until after the relationship ended?

Love Island fans ‘work out' real reason behind Emma and Harry tension as they flirt in Casa Amor
Shan Ally, Showbiz Reporter Published: Invalid Date, THE mystery behind Love Island's Harry and Emma's split has finally been revealed after their flirty chat in Casa Amor. There has been some ambiguity around the reason for former exes split, with some fans initially speculating if Harry had "cheated". 3 3 But last night, Harry was seen chatting to his ex Emma when she sensationally revealed he brought girls back to her house. She told him: "The fact of the matter is, you've brought girls into our home, and I wouldn't do that to you, because that was the rules, and you think the rules don't apply to you. "It's my house, Harry. You think as soon as there's a boundary in place, cross it? "You think, 'oh yes, let me just f*** this up', like there's just no need for any other woman to be in my house." During the chat, Emma made a remark about "crossing boundaries", with some initially thinking it was about infidelity. But viewers are now convinced the pair split up but continued living together while Harry brought girls back to her house - which is what Emma was referring to. One wrote: "I think post-split they were still living together, and she put up a boundary that whilst he looked for a place a place he wasn't to bring girls back." A second said: "They could have been living together after breaking up and he brought someone back too. Or she could have been choosing her words carefully. I have always thought some kind of polyamorous arrangement would suit Harry." A third commented: "They had broken up but were "still living together (it's really common, especially if they owned a house together) and he brought girls back to the house." "Yeah, it sounds like the boundary wasn't having other partners but rather taking them to the house," this person said. Watch the moment Harry snogs ex-girlfriend Emma in saucy game leaving Helena furious Another viewer shared: "I took at as they were living together in her house (he moved in rather than them getting a place together) and he brought a woman home." While someone else said: "I heard this and assumed he was still in there after the break up and bringing girls there even though she was still involved in the house in someway." However some viewers have insisted Harry did cheat on Emma. One wrote: "She said he cheated on the pre villa interview." A second speculated: "Perhaps she believes he cheated but he denied it, but she broke up with him anyway because the boundary was bringing women to their home, so not requiring her to prove they slept together." This viewer pointed out: "He told Helena he cheated at the beginning of the relationship but seems like he was cheating more than that." Last night, during a sizzling game of Raunchy Races, both villas played identical games, with the fastest villa winning a lavish party. "The oldest boy must snog the oldest girl," was a question read out by the Islanders. Harry and Emma, both 30, then jumped out of their seats to snog. Snogging for quite some time, the exes locked lips in a sultry smooch. After it was revealed to each villa that Harry and Emma were the fasted to snog out of the Casa Amor villa and the main villa, Helena was furious. "F**k you, Emma," she shouted while flashing a middle finger. Meg joined in and the two women were chanting "f**k you, Emma" over and over again. Reacting to the smooch Harry shared with his ex, one person penned on X: "THEY DID NOT JUST HAVE HARRY KISS HIS EX FOR A CHALLENGE."

Woman Walks Out of Family Dinner After Future In-Laws Say She Is 'Second Place' to Fiancé's Ex
A woman walked out of dinner with her fiancé when his family made a comment alluding that she was "second place" to his ex The Reddit user notes that his family has not gotten over her partner's previous relationship, which ended years ago Now, her future mother-in-law is texting her and telling her she overreacted to what was meant to be a "lighthearted family moment"A woman is wondering if she was in the wrong for walking out on dinner after her fiancé's family called her "second place" to his ex-girlfriend. In a post on Reddit's r/AmIOverreacting forum, a 30-year-old woman writes that she recently had a less-than-pleasant experience at her future in-laws' house, leading her to storm out. At the start of the post, she explains that she and her 32-year-old fiancé have been together for three years, and he was previously engaged years before they started dating. "I've never had any issue with that, it ended long before I met him, and he's always been open about it," she writes. Though she's confident her partner has moved on from his ex-fiancée, his parents seem to be the ones struggling to move on. "His mom still keeps photos of his ex around 'because she was like a daughter,'" the Reddit user explains. "I've let a lot of little comments slide. Until last weekend." What was meant to be a lighthearted dinner quickly turned sour when her fiancé's dad stood up and asked to make a toast. "It started normal, but then he said, 'We weren't sure you'd ever move on after Claire left, but hey, sometimes second place is still a win, right?'" she recalls, noting that "Claire" is her fiancé's ex. "Everyone laughed except me. My face just burned," she recounts. "I put my fork down, got up, and left the room. My fiancé followed me out, apologized, and we left." Though the poster feels like her reaction to the jab was justified, her soon-to-be mother-in-law chastised her for leaving. "Now his mom is texting saying I overreacted and ruined a 'lighthearted family moment,'" she writes. She's now wondering if she may have been too "sensitive" over the comment, asking if she should've let the situation slide. "It's not like I'm jealous of the ex, but I don't think I'm wrong for not wanting to be called a consolation prize," she explains. Read the original article on People
