If you want to break up with your partner have the guts to do so face to face. If you are going to take the cowards way out then at least do it over email. Here are some examples of text message breakup conversations that didn't go as expected.
- Unexpected

What? Please no!
And you are telling me via messenger?
- When ego comes into the mix

Bad spelling and heartless
Is it not bad enough that you are dumping them? Do you have to see them crumble as well? You sick excuse for a human being!
3. Dramatic breakup

I’m not Batman
Yeah don't do that. You cannot top Batman or Bruce Wayne. You'll just seem pathetic. Actually that might work in your favour. We take it back, go ahead and do this.
- If it is a message then it cannot be real

A joke right?
Yeah, they kinda expect you to be a better person. So a message seems like a joke, you know?
- When it's in a message from their friends

He could’ve told me earlier
Unbelievable. This is beyond cowardly, but it is ingenious.
- When you can joke about it

I’m your what?
It is usually a good sign if they can joke about it. Means you won't have to feel guilty for too long.
- Well you deserve this

Where are you now?
Well obviously. If you choose to use text as a medium to break up then you deserve everything the other person dishes out to you.
