BCU has shared before its list of the worst break up lines… the clichés and lies that your soon-to-be-ex will see right through to the lines that can somehow be argued against. There comes a point as a breaker when you might have to bust out the big guns- throw caution to the wind and ignore the breakee’s feelings. If it has come to that- here are a couple lines that have no comeback.

1) “You remind me too much of my mom/dad!”

Even if creepy psychologists claim that we are all secretly seeking someone similar to our parents, the truth is no one wants to hear that they look or act like your mother. If they try and protest this, put the icing on the cake with a “no really, I feel like I’m having sex with my dad,” and they’ll have no choice but to walk out the door.

2) “I’m gay.”

Literally, there is no argument to this. Not only will they be forced to leave you alone to work out your confused sexuality, but their self-esteem will probably plummet, considering they “turned” you.

3) “I’m already seeing someone else.”

Although we can’t promise your ex won’t go all Forgetting Sarah Marshall on you and alternate crying and sleeping with everything that walks, there is really no way to stay in a relationship with someone who is already in a new one. Totally jerk move, but hey, it works.

4) “I’m a sex addict who needs to go to rehab”

Luckily this term has been all over the news recently, what with Tiger Woods’ exploits with everyone from porn stars to club promoters. Although you don’t have a bevy of fame-hungry beauties to agree to your story, you can probably pay someone to be your pretend-mistress.

5) “I’m a secret agent from Mars. I was told not to fall in love with a human.”

This one is great for making sure you never come in contact with your ex again, but be careful… it could get you a restraining order, and you’ll lose any chance of sleeping with their friends.
