Nonononono. The harshest way of being dumped, ever, has only recently been available.
Perhaps you have heard of the Facebook. The Facebook is a social community website based around colleges; basically, if you are a student or alumni of a college, you get your own little page with your information and witty profile, and you get connected to your friends and classmates. As lame as it sounds, it's actually really good for getting contact information for people in your classes.
In your profile, there is a "Relationship Status" field; you can actually say that you're in a relationship, and link your profile to your significant other.
My point is this- on the page where you can edit your profile, right underneath the field that says "In A Relationship With: *Your Significant Other Here*", is a tiny hyperlink that says "cancel relationship," all in lower case.
cancel relationship.
relationship canceled.
Is that not the worst thing you've ever heard? Jesus. I'll bet every time two Facebook people break up, they have a fuck*ng race to their computers to be the first one to cancel the relationship.
