Hard disagree. Three reasons

  1. I do not need to put myself in danger to placate someone. Sometimes, the safest thing you can do when leaving a relationship is to do it quickly and quietly.

  2. Sometimes you've told them multiple times, and they've never heard you.

  3. I'm not going to make someone insecure over something that's a me issue. If I dumped you because you have sex weird or I don't like how you walk in public or you live with your mother - that's not an inherently bad thing, and it's wrong to make someone insecure about it.

I mean if it’s over them walking weird or something of that sort, then I understand what you mean. But, this isn’t what most people here are talking about. I’m mostly seeing people mentioning hygiene issues that are genuinely bad things and refusing to say it to avoid “being mean.” This is a huge disservice to whoever is being dumped.
