Break-ups are never easy, one person is always left crying and everyone feels rubbish.
And if it’s not a sad break-up, then it’s likely to be a cringeworthy one, which is just as bad.
Sometimes, no matter how long you spend rehearsing and planning what you’re going to say to your other half, things just don’t go to plan.
This was the case for a group of men and women who have been sharing the awkward ways their relationships have ended with Buzzfeed – and honestly they’re too funny not to share.
One woman revealed that she decided to end things with her boyfriend because he was always testing her loyalty.
But the break-up ended up being the most testing experience of all.
She said: "I broke up with my boyfriend because he was always putting me through tests to show my loyalty.
"Well, a few weeks later, I heard he’d overdosed on pills from his parents’ medicine cabinet and died. I felt horrible, like it was all my fault.
"I didn’t have the heart to reach out to his family or attend his funeral. But the day after the funeral, I got a text from his number…
"And it turns out HE WASN’T DEAD! He never overdosed – it was just another one of his tests to see how I would react. This dude literally faked his own death, then sent me a text that said ‘Just so you know, I’m over you’."
And the tales only get wierder.
Another person recalled the time a boyfriend decided to break things off with them while they were at the most magical place on earth.
They said: "My boyfriend broke up with me at Disneyland, and another park guest saw me sobbing and asked if I was ok.
"Through my sobbing I said, ‘he dumped me’, but the man mistakenly heard, ‘he punched me,’ so he immediately stormed over to my boyfriend and punched him… right in the middle of Cars Land."
One woman came up with a brilliant way to call time on her relationship – but her ex wasn’t quite clever enough to catch on.
"I decided to break up with my cheating boyfriend over Instagram by posting a cute selfie captioned, ‘Love being single!’
"But when my boyfriend saw it, he replied ‘LOL AUTOCORRECT!’
"He actually thought I meant to type ‘Love Pringles!’"
But the most awkward of all has to be the girl that was dumped by someone who wasn’t even her boyfriend.
"When I was a sophomore in high school, I was pretty good friends with this one guy," she explained.
"Well, one day I was reading in one of the classrooms when he walked in and broke up with me. Apparently, he thought we’d been dating for a year…and I had no idea."
