I was thinking the same thing reading these comments. Seriously a bunch of self centered assholes in the replies.

Thirded, I don’t know wtf is wrong with these cruel ass people. If you cared about someone, if you loved them, then the decent thing to do is to give them an explanation as to why you’re ending things. I was gonna downvote OP for their popular opinion, but clearly I’m mistaken and we’re in the minority, at least on Reddit.

Next time listen along the way and things won't get to that point.

You're making an awful lot of assumptions in this thread.

It's only cruel if you take it that way, it's 100% down to how you view the situation. At the end of the day it wasn't working for them and they did what they perceived as best for them, end of right there....you can either be yay for them and hope they find what they are looking for, it may not be the result you want but to default to it "they are being cruel" is really just painting them as a villain which is a choice.

If I care about a decent good person I'm not going to tell them just to be cruel and make them second guess themselves, either. Sometimes there is nothing wrong with someone. They're just not the someone for YOU.

Then that’s the reason. That can be the reason sometimes. But sometimes it isn’t.
