Is it OK to text a break up?

If the thought of breaking up with someone in person is stressing you out to the point where it's all feeling like a bit too much, then breaking up via text is perfectly reasonable. This gives you time to collect your thoughts and plan what to say. If you're considering ghosting.

HOW TO BREAK UP WITH SOMEONE OVER TEXT

Knowing how to break up with someone through text fully depends on how long the relationship has lasted, as Matt, 19, so wisely put it: “The breakup text I would send to someone I just went on one date with would be very different to the text I’d send a girlfriend of two years. I’d definitely try to at least call her if meeting in person wasn’t possible”.

For the best breakup texts, keep these three things in mind:

Keep it short and sweet. No one wants an essay detailing all the reasons why you don’t want to date them. Be upbeat, friendly, and stick to the point. Something like - ‘Hi Katie, I hope you’re well. Thanks for meeting me on Thursday. I enjoyed debating who has been the best Spiderman with you (definitely Tobey Maguire) but if I’m honest, I don’t feel there was a romantic connection between us. Always awkward being the person to say this but didn’t want to ghost you!’ – this way you are polite and respectful but make it clear that you don’t want anything more.

Re-read the text before sending. Autocorrect can be ducking annoying at the best of times but if you’re on the receiving end of a breakup text that has lots of spelling errors, it may look like the other person just doesn’t really care, and this can hurt. Make sure to double check the text before sending it!

Make sure to double check the text before sending it! Avoid clichés. Saying ‘it’s not you, it’s me’ is almost as bad as spelling mistakes – it just feels a bit like a cop-out text with zero thought put into it. The best breakup texts are ones that are respectful and have had at least some thought put into them.

HOW TO NOT BE A JERK AFTER BREAKING UP VIA TEXT

No matter how well the text is written and thought about, the other person still may have questions about how it’s come to this. Particularly if the relationship has been more than just a couple of dates, carrying on the conversation to explain your thoughts and feelings may help you both get closure.

Apparently, there are ways to break up via text without being a jerk. Who knew?

What body part are females most attracted to?

In a HerCampus.com survey of over 100 college women across the country, a majority ranked arms as the biggest turn on. Women feel it's a sign that you take good care of your body and admitted they love to see a hint of a man's biceps through his t-shirt or sweater.

muscleandfitness.com - The 10 Most Attractive Body Parts Ranked by Women | Muscle & Fitness

Let’s cut right to the chase: It doesn’t matter if you look like a Greek god if you’re an asshole. While douchey men might be a woman’s go-to for a one-night stand, they’re not what women want in a lifelong partner (hey, researchers proved it), so this is in no way encouraging you to stop working on developing that sparkling personality and to just be a decent human being. Now that that’s out of the way, there are some aspects of a man’s physique that catch a woman’s attention. After all, it doesn’t hurt to have an Adonis-like physique to go along with good listening skills, an inquisitive nature, and attention to detail. Think of yourself as a dinner plate—you might taste good (i.e. be polite and have a good personality) but if you look like crap very few diners are going to want to stick their fork into you. You eat with your eyes first. Here’s a roundup—in no particular order—of the features women love on a guy; and not even just the body parts, but what specifically about men appeal to women. Some of these are obvious, while others might catch you off guard. Either way, all of these have been proven by science to be irresistible to women so get your notebook out now. You can sculpt some in the gym, but others have already been fated by genetics (sorry). Either way, this will give you some insight on what females prefer. Hint: You’ll quickly find that women are not much different than men.
