Welcome to SYBD’s Breakup Lines
Since launching on the 4th of July SYBD has received tens of thousands of breakup lines from all over the world. We had hundreds listed on our site – so much so that people started to steal them for their own websites and apps, so the list will be a bit smaller now. Will continue to add to this page but for now I think I’ll just get you started with…
15 Classic Breakup Lines
1) “It’s not you, it’s me.”

Here Are Five More Dumping Excuses:
At one point I was serious about marrying you, over the past few days, I’ve slowly drifted away from that. That was then, this is now.
I can’t see myself with you when I am 80.
I am breaking up with you now before you get too attached to me…so I am doing you a sort of favour, aren’t I?
Look, I’m not leaving because of me. I think that you are really gay, you just haven’t had the opportunity. So here is the opportunity – I think you need this. I know you think you love me, but I don’t think I’m your type.
OK, remember that girl who called from Germany in the middle of the night, well it was my ex of a two-year relationship and we decided we were going to try to work it out…but she isn’t in town until Saturday.
