Hi, Piggy! So, I kind of need to talk to you. Well, I guess there isn't an easy way to do this without hurting you. I know we had a great time together, but I think it's not working out anymore. Oh, Piggy, it's not you, it's me! I really need these new earbuds! Being in a healthy relationship with someone should make you feel loved, supported, and happy. However, sometimes relationships are unhealthy and can make you feel sad, fearful, and anxious. Signs of an unhealthy relationship might be if your friend or partner teases you, blames you when things go wrong, controls everything you do, or if they physically or sexually hurt you. If you recognize one of these red flags in your relationship and you want to end it, it's important to find a trusted adult to talk to about the situation. They can help you make your breakup plan. There are several steps to a breakup plan. First, decide if you should speak on the phone or in a text message. You can also do it in person, but make sure you're in a public place to keep you safe. Second, tell your friend or partner that you have something important you want to talk about. Then you should say to your partner what you feel is wrong. Remember, you don't have to give a reason. You can simply say, "This isn't working out." Next, clearly and confidently say what you want. "I don't want to be a partner anymore." Finally, acknowledge that this might be hard to hear, and it is normal that the other person may be surprised, upset, or angry. It is not your responsibility to help them through these emotions. You might say something like, "I understand this is hard for you, but this is what is best for me right now." If the person reacts in a way that makes you feel scared, get help from a trusted adult immediately. After leaving any relationship, it's normal to feel sad and sometimes even miss spending time with the person, even if it was unhealthy. Give yourself time and space to adjust without communicating with the other person. You can spend your new free time learning a new hobby or hanging out with other friends. If the person pressures you to get back together or does anything that makes you feel unsafe, talk to a trusted adult immediately. Most importantly, remember that being in an unhealthy relationship isn't your fault and doesn't make you unable to have healthy relationships in the future.
