Search Results: best way to break-up

So in the long run, which would make you look back with the least regrets, either glad that you broke up, or remembering the relationship fondly?
Past experience welcome. Also, if anyone has good break up stories, or another reason please share :)

On a personal note (and feel free to ignore this paragraph), my boyfriend and I are breaking up when he leaves the country to go back home next week (been dating a few months). I am glad that I have a chance to say goodbye properly, and savour the moments because I know they'll be our last. But also it's harder, because there's NO reason for me dislike him, or hate him, it's just that we can't be together anymore. At least if he cheated or our personalities clashed, there's closure and I can say "we just didn't work". Also the fact that I will probably NEVER see him again is hard, whereas with a normal breakup there's a chance for drunken hookups, running in to each other on the street, drunk texting, like I would know he was THERE etc. So I'm not sure if this way of breaking up is better or worse, but I'd like to know what kind of hurt I'm in for..

My ex boyfriend and I broke up less than 3 weeks ago. We were together 5 months. He was a complete a**hole during the breakup. I had previously arranged to meet up with him to discuss our relationship because he refused to tell his best friend we were together. He asked my best friend to tell me we were breaking up for him because he didn't want to tell me he wasn't telling his friend, absolute pus*y.

So we broke up, he claimed it was because he was 'too busy for a girl right now' and that we were 'completely different people', absolute bullsh*t.

So two weeks after we break up, he's already seeing another girl I know. I'm absolutely fuming, because he lied to me about our breakup and because he's now with a friend of mine.

I'm hurt he never even actually cared about me at all. I feel like our whole relationship he was lying about everything. I feel so betrayed and angry at myself for thinking he was different. I was never in love with him or anything, but I did really like him.

Is it okay for me to be angry at him? I in no way want him back, he can go fall off a cliff for all I care. I'm just angry and hurt that he lied and that he got with my friend. So angry.
