Four Signs You Want to Dump Your Boyfriend
You Stop Communicating How You Feel
Everyone knows communication is the most important thing in a relationship -- when you stop communicating with your boyfriend even though you once did, it's a sign you just don't care about fixing things or making them work anymore. This was one of the major ways I knew a relationship was taking a big tumble -- I no longer wanted to express how I felt because I simply didn't care to.
You Don't Care How He Feels
When your boyfriend is upset, you typically want to make him feel better. Even if you're mad at him and he's upset about it, you're not happy he feels that way although you may not express that to him. When you get to a point where you consistently don't care how he feels regardless of what he's upset about, chances are you want to dump him.
You're Becoming Interested In or Involved With Someone Else
If you find yourself drawn to someone else, it can be the start of a big problem. There's a difference between having a small crush or attraction and finding yourself wanting to interact more with this other person than your own partner. When you're interested in or involved with someone else, either emotionally or physically, it's a sign that your boyfriend may not be the guy you want to be with.
You Can't Stand Being Around Him
Although it's normal to not want to constantly be around your boyfriend, when you have little to no interest in being around him, it's a sign you no longer want to be with him. It's even worse if you haven't been around him and you don't miss him. Although there's nothing fun about heartache, having heartache because you miss someone you love is much better than having heartache because you're in a relationship with someone you're not in love with anymore.
The longer you stay together once you've already been unhappy for awhile, the worse it's likely going to get. Consider maybe you've just reached a point where you're staying for reasons other than because you love your boyfriend. You're going to have moments of unhappiness in a relationship, but when you're unhappy the majority of the time, it's a sign you want to dump your boyfriend, and not have a future together.

You can joke all you want about how "obvious" this all is, but it's a great and concrete reminder. Very good article!!!
It really doesn't matter if you all like the writer, the fact is that everything written here is TRUE. If it bothers you that it's talking "boyfriends" instead of "girlfriends" than switch the word. These signs of unhappiness would be the same for either sex.
Obviously the writer has to write this from a female perspective because she is one, she can't write an article on four reasons you need to dump your girlfriend because my guess is shes never had one. Feel free to take what she says and apply it to the women you need to not be with, but I dont get why people are taking offense to the article. Whether your a man or a woman, if you aren't communicating with your significant other anymore, you dont care about how they feel about things anymore and your interested in someone else, I'd say its time to throw in the towel. You'd be surprised how many people stay in awful relationships/marriages for YEARS when they really should have called it quits long ago.
yeah i get a kick out of these writers! , lol
(Smartie pants!)
It's highly inappropriate and revealing of a challenged mind to write sexist articles such as this. As we are all prone to the human condition. It's as delusional as believing one race is superior to another.
I'd be happy to write an article for the men. "Sure signs she needs to be kicked to the curb."
Dumping people is disrespect. Why stay with someone right of the bat if it does not work. Why wait months?? That's dumb.
You dont dump. You have a talk, you're decisive, get a shot of adrenaline and leave gracefully.
"Dump Your Boyfriend" ? The author has issues. Reading through this, I easily can change boyfriend for girlfriend and he for she. Quite a sexist article, isnt'it? I particularly always dump sexist females because they have no understanding about relationships. "sexist" and "relationship" are the opposite poles of a magnet.
