There Is No Such Thing as a Friendly Breakup with Your Adult Dating Partner

So, you’ve done the dirty deed. Congrats! You feel awesome, you feel tired and the last thing you want to do is cuddle with the girl you’re about to dump. When Paris Hilton stated, “He is my best friend, and it will be that way forever” of Paris Latsis, and Latsis saying, “She’s the most incredible woman I have ever met in my life,” it wasn’t an exchange that happened during the announcement of their engagement.

When Paris Hilton stated, “He is my best friend, and it will be that way forever” of Paris Latsis, and Latsis saying, “She’s the most incredible woman I have ever met in my life,” it wasn’t an exchange that happened during the announcement of their engagement. No, this was how they informed everybody that the wedding was off.

According to Greg Behrendt, coauthor of “It’s Called a Breakup Because It’s Broken” and “He’s Not That Into You,” all the feel-good breakup stuff are completely bogus. Nobody comes out from a breakup from your adult dating partner and says, “Well, yeah, that was alright.” Someone always gets crushed, and somebody has to be angry.

Being angry can be good. In fact, it can be therapeutic, or, at the very least, entertaining. What do you think Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes felt when she burned her boyfriend’s mansion to the ground? I’m sure Nicole Kidman took a big step towards recovery when she took a potshot at Tom Cruise’s hobbit stature by saying, “I can wear heels now.”

It can be difficult to be civil even if you have the best intentions, but you have to go through the anger to get to the catharsis.

However, some people may not be that lucky when they breakup with their adult dating partner. Take Bruce Willis for example, the ex badass who has been tagging along with ex wife Demi and new husband Ashton on vacation trips and premieres. In this scenario, at least he has an excuse because he has an image to worry about. Fortunately, the rest of us common folk can get away with doing normal pathetic things that we will definitely regret in the morning—drunk dialing, backstabbing, stalking, sending nasty emails, and messy breakup sex camouflaged as make up sex. According to John Gray, author of the popular book “Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus” and relationship guru, “Men tend to seek revenge by indiscriminately trying to get laid. It’s like a man starving in the desert who suddenly comes across steak and omelettes.”

Going through a throng of bed-breaking one night stands is par for the course, which goes the same with taking your fair share of potshots. Believe it or not, getting inebriated and telling your friends about the time your ex hooked up with that fat coworker isn’t totally out of bounds as long as it is done in the right conditions and it doesn’t get back to the other person.
