Things haven't really been working out between us for the last few weeks. She has been picking fights with me it seems for no reason. I haven't spoken to her since last thursday and I just Imed her tonight to see what she was up too. So doesn't seemed to interested then tells me she has to go and to have a goodnight.

So basically I know things are basically over but no one has officially broken up with each other yet. Should I call her up and officially do it or just leave it unspoken?

Update:
Just called and left a message on her answering machine saying "that we need to talk".
Will update again later when she calls me back.

Update2

Its official we just broke up over the phone. It seemed like it was mutual when I brought it up and she said she should have brought it up sooner but for some reason she didn't. I feel like a huge weight has just been lifted off my chest :)

The reason why she hasn't broken up with you yet is because she doesn't want the guilt. She doesn't want thet guilt to be dumped on her for breaking up the relationship.

I say wait a couple days and hit on her friend. Doesn't have to be a close friend. This way, she'll have a reason to break up and you'll have a girl for the rebound. Trust me, if the relationship is going down hill you might as well.

Call and end on good terms. Whether it be just talking to her on the phone or meeting for coffee.

I don't really want to call her and dump her officially because I broke up with her last time and she cursed me out to anyone that would listen to her. I don't want to come off as the bad guy when she is the one acting weird towards me. Any ideas?

Call her up and tell her that you will consider the relationship over until she lets you know what the problem is and how to work on a solution. Tell her if you hear that she's been bad-mouthing you behind your back again, there will be no possiblity of reconciliation. And stick to it.

IF she's as you represented, she ain't worth your time and effort. You need a real woman, not a third-grader.

Worst thing she can do is say, "No."

WTF?

Huh?

If he calls, the worst thing she can do is say, "No, we're staying together."

Any other outcome is whatever would have happened anyway if he didn't call...

Don't let that be your problem. You have to get out of this thing, and fast. Take care of it.

On again off again relationships are stupid. End it for good with her. You don't have to insult her, but definately tell her why.

Yes, he can decide what he'll say, but she can decide to say, "No."

It sounds like the consensus so far is I should call her and discuss it with her. This should be a very awkard phone call. Any other ideas? :)

The sooner you do it, the sooner it's over.
