The Berger Syndrome - Avoid Being The Bad Guy/Asshole

Awkward phone conversations. Gmails. Tweets. Going AWOL. Facebook relationship status changes...and post-it notes. Is it just me or does it seem like no one gives a respectable break-up these days? A friend and I think it's pretty much become (or rather, always has been) the norm. When it comes to break-ups everybody seems to be getting Berger'd. But really, is it too much to ask for a guy/girl to be brave and tell someone face to face that they no longer want to be in a relationship? I honestly don't think it is.

Thoughtfullness...Decency...Honor. It REALLY is that simple, people...Aside from the raw emotions and heartbreak, that is.
