Relationships can start and stop in very interesting ways. A couple years back, Sex and the City had an episode about being dumbed via Post-it note that I've always thought was the worst possible way to breakup. What could possibly be worse than leaving a Post-it? Facebook!!! Yes, Facebook has become the official source for updating one's relationship status. Thanks to the social power of the News Feed, everyone in your network is notified when your relationship status has changed. Unfortunately, you might be the last person in your social network to find out that your boyfriend or girlfriend has changed their status to single.
In my opinion, the Facebook breakup takes the Post-it breakup to the next level of embarrassment. It's the same concept, accept the Facebook status is being posted for all of your friends, family and acquaintances to see, not just you.
If you know of, or can think of a worse way to find out that your significant other has a sudden change of heart, please send me your comments. I'd love to hear worse breakup stories and scenarios.
