Is it bad to lie about why you are breaking up to spare someone’s feelings?

Question

Such as you fell out of love and find things he does annoying almost toxic versus just telling them it’s not you it’s me and I just need time to be alone and grow (which is semi true).

Answer

No.. be honest. You are already breaking up with them… I’m pretty sure you’re not sparing their feelings then. Keep it real

Answer

I think you should only hide your feelings when it’s for something petty that they can’t change (their voice, their physical features, etc.) if it’s about their behavior I think they should know 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

Be honest. It’s an opportunity for them to self reflect and improve themselves for their next partner

Answer

If you can safely tell them (without risking abuse) then it’s usually best to tell them. The feeling-sparing words “it’s not you, it’s me” always sound extremely fake.

Answer

Have you ever heard of constructive criticism? I feel it's important to let somebody know why you're leaving them that way they know what part of them they need to work on. Otherwise they're going to continue to go on not knowing that they're like that. One of two things could happen they could either take that knowledge and use it to better themselves or they could not deny that they're like that and continue to be that way but at least then they'll have the chance to change. On top of that you should just try to be an honest person regardless on if it's going to hurt somebody's feelings.

Answer

Definitely be honest. Lying or just ghosting is honestly pathetic. No offense. Sometimes the reason you’re breaking up with someone could show the other person they don’t want to be with you anyway. For example, you break up with someone because they are annoying, well maybe they don’t want to be with someone who takes things too seriously  and maybe they want someone who plays around and had a sense of humor. Anything like that.
