Should you still break up with someone in person after only two dates or can you break it off through a text?

[blondfrog]

I am just curious cause I personally would hardly call that dating if you only went on 2 dates with someone. Should you still end it with them in person or would it be okay to break it off through a text?

In this case you can break it off with them over a text

You should still break up with them in person

It depends on how close you are to the other person and if it is an established relationship or not. I think a text is fine in this situation tho. It was two dates. If you don’t want to text a phone call works too.

Well 2 dates don’t build a relationship , they just open a window..

If u hv already felt it isn’t right, honesty is still a courtesy, not a contract..

U don’t owe a grand ending to a story that barely began,
but u do owe respect in how u close the chapter..

After only two dates, you really don't even need to break up. There really isn't anything started yet. Just my opinion. Don't do anything except stop seeing her. If she asks, you can politely explain.

It's preferred to breakup in person but a text or phone call is acceptable, especially when the relationship is not thst serious.

I've had breakups in person, phone call, text and email.

Me personally wouldn’t break up or stop dating someone over a text , I would at least call her and tell her that over the phone , be the respectful thing to do , A text message can leave question marks , but hearing someone’s voice usually gets’ straight to the point

I'd prefer a phone call... Saying "I don't think it's going to work out between us" over a text is bit harsh.

It’s never ok to break up through text. With that said, it’s ok to break up with someone at any given time, but break up’s can usually happen in the beginning since that’s when you start getting to know someone and it’s completely fine to come to the conclusion that you’re not compatible. I’m assuming going on dates doesn't automatically make someone your partner since dates are usually meant to get to know someone.

[NobodyXox]

After two dates I feel like you don't owe them anything. You're not in a relationship yet and like barely know each other. You can definitely tell them that you don't feel the need to see them again in a text.

[BonzoInBitburg]

Two dates is nothing and you're not in a relationship. A simple "It's not you it's me" text is enough.

[Zack-Bann]

Text or a call.
If you’re only two dates deep there’s no need to create an uncomfortable scene.


It’s still fair play to end it “before it really starts”

[fantasticass]

If you have been on 2 dates, and you don't like the person, I would send them a text saying, " I don't feel any chemistry between us", good luck in your future endeavours

[D_Bone_Steak]

This is the clear difference between you and someone like me. Dates don't mean we're together.

[DreamCrescent]

they don’t. and no text is even necessary. i’d just have gone on my way

[Purpleronnie]

Text just never makes sense for a breakup …. at least a phone call

[Sevenpointfive]

of course you do it in person. that's how you get the breakup sex achievement.

[Alex-Snow]

Most will do it via text but if you are mature about it you can at least talk about it on the phone or irl

[LiamJHayden]

Until we have agreed to be exclusive we owe each other nothing.

[douride2]

In person is still the best choice. At least give them a call on the phone.

[Fireguy17]

Its the polite thing to do it in person.

[Staximus]

Two dates is not a relationship

[Anonymous]

Pick the most suitable way that

[DrPepper12]

Text is fine.
