Breakfast
Today, I had woken up to the news that a friend of mine had served his girlfriend (now his ex girlfriend) breakfast. For those of you who don’t know what a breakfast is when it comes to relationship matters, breakfast is a slang for heartbreak. So when someone says he has just been served breakfast by his girlfriend, he is simply telling you that he just got broken up with.
Anyways, when I heard the news I wasn’t really that surprised because break ups is something that has come to be very consistent in this part of the area where I school. A lot of teens just date for the fun of it and when the fun is no longer there or when they see something else that they like, they just end their current relationships without even giving it a second thought or thinking about their partners mental health because to them, he or she will get over it with time and be fine.
Well I and a friend started to gossip a bit about the most recent break up and that was when a certain question came up. My friend had asked me if I knew the reason for the break up which I had replied No but then I asked him one question that he seemed to not have an answer to, I asked him if there must be a valid reason to break up before one can break up.
You know how someone tells their partner that they no longer want to continue the relationship and the partner ask why and then they start to come up with different excuses of different things that their partners do that they don’t like or sometimes they just wait until their partner do one tiny mistake and then they use it as a gateway to get the hell out of the relationship. My question is, why can’t someone just walk up to their partner and tell them they no longer want to date that person and when the partner ask them why, they reply like “I honestly don’t have any reason, you’ve done nothing wrong, I just want us to go our separate ways”.
I guess a response like that will make the break up even more messier, probably why they say there’s a reason for everything.
