You’ve reached a hard limit. You’ve been in your relationship for enough time to understand habits, and to be able to pinpoint your own true feelings and those of your partner. Today, you have realized that even though you love each other, there is a deep incompatibility, and it’s a deal breaker.

I’ll be the first to admit that I am the type of girl that likes to bury my pasta in parmesan cheese, so I always get a bit angsty when the waiter walks up with the grater and utters the dreaded line of “just say when.”

If you are like me, your morning alarm is set on your phone, so the first thing you end up doing is fumbling around for your glowing, chiming beacon of light, and then staring blankly at it, as you try to get your fingers to successfully swipe away the eerie melody.

When you are feeling jealous over something, it's time to check in and see what you are feeling insecure about. Jealousy and insecurity prove to be toxic partners time and time again. 

If you have been on the receiving end of one, or all of these paltry attempts to cheer you up after a break up, then read on fellow love sojourner. It can be a hard pill to swallow, but some relationships are better left untouched after the expiration date.

If I were to ask you what "role-playing” means and the only thought that comes to mind is leather harnesses and a nurse-outfit...we have some work to do.
