Weigh in and tell us if you forgive or not forgive this True Confession.

"I'm going to break up with my boyfriend the day after Valentine's Day. I don't want to be alone this year and I just don't have the heart to do it sooner. Can I be forgiven for being so selfish?"

I've done it!! as long as you are happy on Sunday and are making a good move for you, so what - live your life
1I guess I dont' understand the forgive or unforgive in this case. It seems odd to me that you'd want to spend such a romantic holiday with someone that you apparently don't have those kinds of feelings for anymore.. just odd. I'm sure there is a group of your single girlfriends getting together to have dinner and drinks, and believe me, those parties can be more fun than anything else.
2I say if you aren't happy with the relationship and you are going to break it off, the sooner the better.. maybe it's just me..
I said not forgive, just because I don't think it's a good reason to stay with somebody. Just for a cheesy made-up holiday that means nothing? I'd feel guilty instead of enjoying the day with him anyway, and you're hurting him more than necessary each day you don't do it.
3Like ella said, I'm sure you can get a group of girlfriends together for v-day, and have much more fun.
I'm sorry, but if the relationship is over, end it. This is like breaking up the day after Christmas because you wanted the presents. Childish.
4Selfish and childish. Just be an adult and break up with him if the relationship isn't working out. Why suffer in it much longer?
5I agree with starangel82.
6Will you really be that much happier on Valentine's day spending it with someone you clearly don't want to be with?
7i said not forgive and I agree with Sarah Lynn. If you want to break up with him then obviously you don't have feelings for him anymore. So why would you want to spend a "romantic" holiday with him? That doesn't make sense to me and fearing being a lone isn't a good excuse either. Suck it up, end the relationship and find something else to do Saturday night.
8not forgive. you're mean and selfish
9That's terrible. Just be real with him and tell him why you're REALLY with him - you want the cuddles and the gifts.
If you can't do that...well, you know what goes around comes around...so don't be surprised!
10Wow that's pretty cold. It's a pretty selfish thing to do to someone, besides who on earth wants to spend Valentine's Day with someone they have no feelings for? Yikes.
11Not forgive. Staying with someone because you don't want to be alone on a holiday says a lot about the kind of person you are. You are selfish. There is never a good time to break up with someone. You just have to do it. Hell, you'll probably feel better after you do it anyway. That's a lot of emotional weight to carry around. Get it over with.
12What a horrible thing to do to someone! Not forgive!
13this is dumb. i hope he breaks up with you one valentine's day. that's what you deserve for putting such emphasis on such an idiotic holiday
14I can understand how you feel, that's exactly why I hate Valentine's day and I am in a relationship. I mean this day is really about nothing and it's such a commercial holiday. To me it's just another day, I know my man loves me and he shows it throughout the year.
15Probably should've broken up with him BEFORE Valentine's day. It seems really selfish otherwise.
16Snarkypants, ITA. LOL
17so not cool
18could you maybe wait a week rather than day. and don't tell him that you were planning it, don't make him feel used and make him distrustful of other women.
19Not forgive - you're going to be miserable anyway - do you just want your candy and flowers?
20Not forgive. I mean, why remember a holiday that's about love with someone you don't? In retrospect, no one wants dumped on V-day. Do it now, or wait longer - Using him and dumping him...Ugh.
21Forgive .. but wait a few days until after valentines .. so that he doesn't feel like all the money he spent or whatever whet down the drain
22Sure, go ahead and do that...and when the same thing happens to you in the future, I hope its 10 times worse for you. You're only using him and that shouldn't be forgiven.
23This is effing stupid. Are you really THAT scared to be alone on Valentine's day?
24I had friends do this in middle school. Hopefully you're older than that and can see how it makes you look immature and shallow. But, hey, if you're cool with that than by all means!
25Misery loves company. Grow up, please!
26see...she's probably one of those people who NEEDED that "surviving vday when youre single" posts, everyone was b*tching about.
to the OP...you're a selfish b*tch. That is all.
27It is forgivable but it's selfish to do the other person.You have to think about the other person above yourself. It' not fair, you have to let go.
28o man..well remember, Karma is a b*tch!
29That's pretty pathetic...sorry.
30Nope not forgiven that is beyond selfish and if you don't love/like him then stop wasting your time and especially his time. End it now.
31You should think about the other person too. What goes around, comes around.
32wait, does he know that you are going to break up with him. If he knows and accepts it and willing to spend v-day with you. I say "go for it" there is nothing wrong with this.. everyone has her own expectation and moral standard. Also, I would recommend a sex marathon to get the last bit of what's left. (remember, not a love making marathon, just sex marathon), the next morning when you get up, be polite, tell him this is over and walk out with your dignity and never look back. Best of luck to you and enjoy this one last v-day with your soon to be ex-lover.
33Ha. Are you serious? You'd postpone a relationships demise to save face and go out to dinner on some overly commercialized holiday? Are you kidding me. He should leave you first.
34Maybe I'm cold-hearted, but why not break up with him on v-day? Go out, have your date, and while you're at dinner just break the news.
35terrible! Just terrible.
36Dude, who does want to be alone! It's better that you're doing it after because you'll just make it a truly shoddy valentines day for the both of you.
37Just don't tell him you love him and drop him the next day.
gawd if ur gonna be a b!tch and do that...at least wait TWO WEEKS...the day after? karma will bite u back one way or another...not forgive!
38Break up is a hard thing to go through, and you're going to give him hope just because you don't want to be alone on a day meant for romance. Selfish just doesn't cut it does it?
