Hola ladies and gents!
Today the way we maintain friendships is different. Writing letters and making phone calls have given way to Facebooking and txting. The right way to break up with your boyfriend or girlfriend has changed with time, too. In case you are ready to end things and aren’t sure how or you are just curious, here is a step-by-step way to break up with someone and be clear that it is OVER.
Step 1: Facebook
Delete all 500 of those annoyingly cute and nostalgic pictures that you posted on Facebook!
Make sure you save the changes. Failure to do so will result in uncertainty on the part of the party with whom you are breaking up.
Deleting all the pictures could be time-consuming, especially if you were together for a long time. If you had entire albums dedicated to someone, it is easier to just delete the entire album instead of doing it picture by picture.
On to the good stuff, CANCEL that relationship. Like it was a mistake. Which it was.
As someone who has perfected this method of breaking up, I can say that this part is the most satisfying. As always, don’t forget to save the changes. Don’t start thinking and developing second thoughts about your decision. Just hit save!
We’re done with Facebook.
Step 2: MySpace
MySpace is more popular in some crowds than others but most of you have one. Change your status on Facebook AND MySpace for the optimal breakup. Anything less is just a sign that you’re a pansy.
Delete the pictures. See the ‘Delete Photo’ button. It’s above every one of your pictures.
You’ll be prompted to save. Do it.
Feeling better? Feeling like the relationship is almost over? Good. You’re almost there.
Changing your relationship status on MySpace is a little less obvious to your stalkers but saving it feels good all the same:
And hey, if you’re down to change your sexual orientation while you’re at it, go for it! Now is the time!
Don’t forget to do these things on any other social networks that you are a part of.
Part 3: The Recovery Process
This is the simplest and most fun of all the steps. Recovering and meeting new people.
It doesn’t have to be Chad the Cutie, it could be Lisa the Lovely, Aaron the Amorous or anyone else who you find attractive and who will be able to take your mind off of the relationship that you just ended.
The End.

lmao you are a mess. I loved this! Shall promote!
hilarious! my girl doesn’t get on facebook much so i dunno if that would work well for me.
i like this, this is totally cool!!
The ultimate guide! I see this on the NYT Bestseller list shortly.
You make a very good assertion in your introduction – social networks have changed the way we handle real-life relationships with others, be it friendship or otherwise.
After that, it is where I begin to disagree 🙂
There is one, and only one right way to break up with someone. In person. Anything less than that is, IMHO, cowardly, and a sign of having no class.
Prior to performing any clean-up, as you have described in so great a detail, a simple heads-up to the other party involved is courteous. Courtesy always goes a long way.
Then again, whether or not that much detail about your relationship should be online in the first place is a whole different topic all together 🙂
Just my two cents before I begin to digress 😉
