#2 “By text message. It’s so impersonal and it’ll give me the impression that the relationship wasn’t significant to her.” – Safith Mohanan, 23, advertising sales assistant

#3 “Leaving me a note saying goodbye on my desk. Imagine coming to work and seeing that!” – Kevin Lim, 25, entrepreneur

#4 “Coming by while I’m hanging out with my best friend, and telling me that they’ve been secretly seeing each other.” – Bryan Ee, 23, sales assistant

#5 “Getting her friends to do it for her. That’s just wrong. She either doesn’t care enough to tell me herself or is afraid of confrontation.” – Xavier Yap, 24, tutor

#6 “Yelling that we’re done… in front of a big crowd!” – Alphonsus Sim, 24, events coordinator

#7 “Giving me the cold shoulder, then disappearing. There would be no closure!” – Victor Khong, 22, undergraduate
