This is What It Should Look Like, by Liz
這才是事情本來的樣子，莉茲
I know a couple who dated for many years and then broke up.
我知道有一對戀愛了數年的情侶分手了。
They had a lot of mutual friends and everyone took it very hard.
他們有許多共同的朋友，所有人都很難接受。
Five years later, they got back together again and are now happily married.
5年后他們復合了，現在幸福的結婚了。
During the time apart, there were no dates or phone calls or being chums.
分開的這段時間，他們沒有約會，不打電話，不做朋友。
They didn't torture, confuse, or hurt each other in the process.
他們在過程中沒有互相折磨、困擾和傷害對方。
They moved on with their lives, grew up separately, and only then realized, much later, that they could be together again.
他們繼續各自的生活，獨立成長，然后很久以后意識到雙方應該可以再次復合了。
Greg, I Get It! By Callie, Age 26

Recently I told my ex-boyfriend that I had started dating someone.
最近我告訴我前男友我開始跟人約會了。
We had been broken up for six months.

Now I can't get rid of him! He calls me, reminds me I have to pick up mail, asks me to go to the movies.
現在我還無法擺脫他！他給我打電話，提醒我收件，請我看電影。
I'm not going to lie, I love the attention. But guess what? I now understand that none of it is real.
我不想撒謊，我喜歡這種關注。但是你猜怎么著？我現在明白了這些都是假的。
He's not asking to get back together with me. He's just jealous.
他不是要跟我復合。他只是嫉妒。
His behavior might have at one time in my life given me hope, but now it just makes me laugh. Men are so obvious.
他的行為曾一度給我希望，但是現在只會讓我發笑。男人太容易看懂了。

100% of men polled said that when they broke up with someone, it always meant that they didn't want to go out with them anymore.
百分之百接受調查的男人說他們跟對方分手常常意味著再也不想跟她們約會了。

一個男人甚至問道，“如果你不分手的話怎么享受美好的分手性愛？”不要跟這種人約會！
What You Should Have Learned in This Chapter
你應該在本章中學到的
You can't talk your way out of a breakup. It is not up for discussion. A breakup is a definitive action, not a democratic one.
你不能用你自己的方式來解釋分手。這不是由討論決定的。分手是實實在在的行動，不是民主的行為。
Breakup sex still means you're broken up.
分手做愛依然意味著分手。
Cut him off. Let him miss you.
和他一刀兩斷。讓他想念你。
He doesn't need to be reminded that you're great.
他不需要被提醒你的好。
He can take care of his cat.
他能照顧好自己的貓。
"Classy" doesn't "break into his answering machine."
“有風度的”并不意味著要“偷聽他的“留言機”。
There's a guy out there who's going to be really happy that you didn't get back together with your crappy ex-boyfriend.
如果不跟你差勁的男票復合，會有一個男人真的很開心。
