How do you tell your partner you want a divorce?

Cupid’s Advice:

Obviously it is not easy to tell your partner that you want a divorce. There are no shortcuts, or easy paths to take to try and beat around the bush. When telling your partner you want a divorce, you  need to be honest and completely upfront with your partner. If you’re not, your life could get messy. Cupid has some more advice:

1. Straight up: If you are going to tell your mate straight up if you want a divorce, don’t hesitate or back out. You can not beat around the bush, you need to be honest and tell your partner what you’re thinking. Be sensitive and thoughtful when telling your beau that you want to split up. Whatever you do, do not stray away from your decision because your mate wants to stay together.

2. Let the law speak for itself: If your relationship is on the rocks so much that you haven’t been speaking to your spouse at all, it might be appropriate to have the divorce documents speak for themselves.

3. Leave a note: Write out what you want to say to your partner, and leave it behind. This may not be the best case scenario in certain situations. However, if you are in a abusive or unhealthy relationship and this is the only way to get out. Do it. Pack up all of your stuff, leave a note, and leave that life behind. If you are with someone who does not love you or wish to be with you every second of the day, leave. And never come back.
