Johnnie Harmonie2 months agoI'm a 25-year-old man in a semi-long-distance relationship with my girlfriend, who is 23. We've been together for several months, but I've come to the conclusion that it's time to break up for various reasons. I had initially planned to end things in person when we meet up in a week, right after New Year’s, but I'm starting to reconsider this approach. I agreed to drop off my brother with his girlfriend at the same time, who is in a similar situation but not breaking up. This adds complexity to the logistics of the visit. I’m feeling conflicted about whether to break up with her over the phone or video chat before our scheduled meeting to avoid leading her on for another week. On one hand, it seems considerate to do it in person, but I worry that it might come off as misleading since I’d be spending time with her and then abruptly ending things. If I do choose to break up in person, I’m debating whether to do it that evening, which would mean a long drive for a short conversation, or to wait until the morning after. However, that would feel like I’m promising a proper date and then not delivering.2
