Online Break-Ups

I don't know if many of you have seen this before.

dramatic reading of a break up email

It's a hilarious dramatic reading of a break up email that a girl sent to her now ex-boyfriend.
This goes along with class and our views of how technology has become the norm. Remember the good (or not so good) old days when couples broke up in person? Now, it's completely normal for couples to break up by phone, email, and text! It's weird to see how we've become so impersonal with relationships!

Facebook, has now become the place to learn personal information about people you vaguely know. When a status goes from "in a relationship" to "single", you can't help but gasp! Often times under those status changes comes a barrage of sympathy from friends. I can't help but wonder if this public announcement is a plea for sympathy. I don't know.

So enjoy these images of facebook break-ups that I found.

The second one was a bit more accusatory. But both were very public. I guess relationship problems are no longer a personal issue between the couples. Rather, it's frequently publicized for the world to see.

Basically, I feel like shows how generational ideas of breaking up are changing! There will no longer be face to face confrontations! Which is good or bad, depending on your opinion.
