56 Quotes About Breaking Up to Say Goodbye to The Relationship for Good

A French saying goes: ‘Partir c’est mourir un peu’, or to say goodbye is to die a little. With every breakup or divorce you give away part of yourself in order to continue with your life with the remaining part. This is why many people find it difficult to end the relationship and move on alone. You don’t say casually that ‘it’s over’ to someone you’ve shared your life with for years.

‘It’s over’ is the opposite of the magical four words of love. It may be hard to say ” I love you ” for the first time, but saying “I don’t love you anymore” is even harder. It’s nerve-wracking to say goodbye to a former loved one. Everyone who has experienced it knows that. The longer you wait, the harder it becomes.

Anyone who has never said goodbye to an ex-partner knows it from television, radio and the numerous status updates on social media from acquaintances and friends. Artists also create new songs every day about broken hearts and broken relationships. Love and feeling are inextricably linked to these lyrics, each of which is filled with quotes about lost loved ones.
