That would be so unfair, if this person really liked you and you finish with them on there birthday, that day will always then be marred for them, they will always think of there birthday as the day that they lost you, that to me is just so shelfish to ruin someones special day like that

I think that would be the lowest of low. Do it before or wait a while after.

truth be told i agree. These 'senitments' started lets say 3 weeks ago, rasther i realized them or whatever 3 weeks ago. This past weekend was her birthday.. i was never contemplating dunmping her then to hurt her. Only that i knew, before the day, that to dump her before could ruin the birthday because of similar friends and to go through with it i might have to act falsely. So i didn't do anything and now its tuesday..
i think i need to have a chat with my girl.. related question.. how to you break up with someone you care about?

If you want to stay there friend, bad choice. But if you think you could crush them with this and wanted to, you should. Also that would put you in the out books with her friends, and if their your friends to, that would suck. If its not going to come back and bite you, and your over it, go for it. The faster the better. And if she's trashed then she might not be too much of a problem. So its not fair but if they deserve it, sure is

You have 365 more or less days to dump her/him, please dont dump somebody on this such a special day. This is cruelty, I guess. If you really have to, its ok, you shouldn't force yourself to be with somebody if you dont want to. It is for your your own good and for him/her too. But try dumping them some other time aside from their birthday..

No, I think that's cruel. Birthdays, Christmas and anniversaries are special days for most people and are off limits if you want to end the relationship.

If you dont want to be with somebody, why stay with them? Its not helping either of you. And dont plan to dump them on a particular day, that always seems cruel to me. I can imagine that there are those lingering sentiments still. I'm not sure what you define as fair, but i think its a special day for somebody their birthday. And it would be quite mean to do something that ruined their day. Mean as it sounds, you should have dumped them before their birthday, so they had the birthday to bring them up to a better degree of happiness.
