This is theoretical, of course.

Your job is moving. You need your job. You are moving with your job...far away from "here."

You are involved with someone...both people know the relationship is stagnant and won't be going anywhere. But possibly one person may be holding out against hope that things WILL progress.

You have no intentions of taking said SO w/you when you leave.

How do you relay said news to said SO? :confused:

ps
The following lines are unacceptable.
1. Biotch! Yo'ass be dumpified!
2. It's been real and it's been fun but not really real fun. Later.
3. You're just not what I'm looking for...you're too psychotic.

Pack your sh!t & disappear in the middle of the night.

Oh, and take all her tampons as a parting gesture.

We need to talk.

An opportunity has come up at my job, and it means more security for me. (not a lie, if you move you keep the job). This will help me establish my loyalty to the company, plus really prove to them that I am a team player. Unfortunately, this opportunity means I will have to move. While I have enjoyed our time together, I just don't see our relationship lasting much longer. I will be accdepting this offer, and moving on XX/XX/XXXX, but I will be going by myself. You and I both know that this relationship is more of a convience thing for the both of us, but past that..............................not much else. I am sorry if this hurts, but I do have a carrer to work on, and my son depends on me to support him.

Tell her you are moving to another location, different from where you are going. Ask her to meet you there.

:D This convinces me that this isn't strictly hypothetical.

Fantasy would have been more appropriate than hypothetical.

My last 2 g/fs both decided to move home with their families on the East Coast. Both times I told them I don't do long distance relationships. That pretty much sealed it without too much fuss plus I still got farewell nookie.

Since Ulfwald already gave the four-star response, I'll contribute a useless one.

You: Hey, Honey, knock-knock!
Her: Who's there?
You: Not you anymore.
