My first question! Ask Andrea is so excited!
The reader asked: I have to break up with my boyfriend because I found out he's been sleeping around. I want him to remember me but I don't know how to break up because I'm sort of shy.
Ask Andrea's Response:
Dear Reader,
Let me start by saying - don't put up with his crap. Bravo for not taking it and for taking the steps to move on. There are plenty of fish in the sea regardless of how cute this one is or how much fun he might be. Move on.
Here's the good news! Breaking up ain't so hard to do?
We, at Ask Andrea, have the solution!
First, prolong the break up. Yes I said prolong the break up.....long enough to follow your boyfriend and his new flame. (Remember there's a fine line between lurking and stalking and Ask Andrea would never want someone to cross that legal line).
Watch for an established pattern in the relationship - a favorite spot, restaurant etc. Once you've established this repeated location, say a restaurant, make plans for dinner when you know the boyfriend/new flame will be there.
Invite your best friend, your parents and his parents to meet you and the boyfreind for dinner at that location. Of course, you don't let him know these plans have been made. Ask the parents and friend to keep it quiet so boyfriend doesn't find out - because afterall, you want to make a special announcement. Giggle and act excited!
Show up at the restaurant with best friend, moms and dads in tow. Waltz up to the table and act shocked, but don't cry. Most likely the mothers and fathers will take it from there and you probably won't need to actually say the words "I don't want to see you anymore" especially after you so cleverly flash the menacing, "I got ya" grin.
Your best friend will already be there to back you up and provide comfort.
He won't forget it and you don't have to do the ugly work of saying those harsh words. No matter what....you win!
Good luck!!

Speaking from expeience, I have to say, it is much easier to end things when you see your mate live in action with "the other woman." I think it is a good idea to set him up...good advice!!!! Believe me...this will fuel your fire like nothing else!!!
