Can I break up with my boyfriend by text?
My boyfriend and I have been dating for about 3 months. He told me that he and his ex-partner broke up before we met, but I just found out that they’re still having sex. I’m furious, but I’m not sure I could say everything I want to say to his face. I think that writing it down would enable me to get everything out. Is it okay to break up with him in an email or text?
