Cupid's Pulse Article: Sources Say Emma Roberts ‘Iced Out’ Chord Overstreet Pre-BreakupCupid's Pulse Article: Sources Say Emma Roberts ‘Iced Out’ Chord Overstreet Pre-Breakup

It seems as if the breakup between Emma Roberts and Chord Overstreet could have easily been predicted.  Roberts was constantly leaving Overstreet out of her plans, sources say. Glee’s Overstreet, 22, was left out of Roberts’ “girl’s night” New Year’s plans, and she also reportedly ignored his texts the night of the Golden Globes after-party, which ended in drama and tears.  According to UsMagazine.com, Overstreet was overheard saying, “Emma does this all the time when she doesn’t want to see me.”  Although her reps claim that he was too controlling for the young star’s busy career life, the relationship had hit a dead end.

What are some ways to show someone you’re no longer interested?

Cupid’s Advice:

There are times we find ourselves no longer interested in the person we’re in a relationship with, but don’t know how to tell them.  Here are some tips:

1. Put off hanging out with them: If you keep coming up with an excuse every time they ask you to do something, they’ll eventually get the hint.

2. Show your independence: If you continue to make plans, without inviting him/her, they’ll realize that you’d rather be independent than tied down.

3. Talk to them, as a friend: If you continue pretending you want to be with them and talk to them as if you’re a happy couple, you won’t get anywhere.  Put them back in the friend zone.  It shows you still care about them, but just as a friend.
