Breakups in school can be bad because if you were with someone in your class, you keep seeing them even after the breakup. I’ve seen this happen so many times in my class and some people got really affected by that, others didn’t. I’m kinda glad that I never had to go through a breakup during my time at school because I wouldn’t be able to move on when I see that person every day 
What do you think about breakups at school?
Did you have a breakup at school? How did it go?
Do you think it has an effect on your behaviour at school if you see the person you broke up with every day? Would you be able to move on from the relationship anyway?

They really suck, I regret getting into relationships when I was at school
The first one did hurt me but it was also kinda understandable, what I didn’t understand was that he had some kind of vendetta against me after that like, it wasn’t enough that he broke up with me he had to start rumours about me too and I don’t mean rumours in the sense of telling people I was bad in the relationship, I mean he’d tell people that I’d called them mean names, tell people that I called him mean names, he admitted he was only doing it to start drama then he tried to do the same with his next ex (who was my closest friend) and nobody actually listened to me, but the people who did listen to me ended up as my friends. I’d “dated” that guy in year 8 to some of year 9 (so I was 13-14) and it wasn’t great, niether of us were actually compatible in any way tbh and while there are things I regret and want to apologise for I think it’s best that we just stay out of each others way. It was a bad experience but I think we both learned.
The other one was alot more upsetting to me, simply because I was slightly older (year 9 to year 10, so I was 14-15 we actually dated for 14 months) when I was dating that guy and even though we both made mistakes that was mostly a great relationship until he fell in love with one of my only other friends who I considered to be my closest friend (same friend as from the first break up). He started far different rumours about me that basically consisted of him removing context where context was needed but that didn’t have anywhere near as much of an affect as the first break up because nobody really believed him and I didn’t hang around people who did. He had alot of mental health problems and did end up being kicked out of school. He still messages me from time to time so we are on good terms!
After that, I realised I had some problems of my own I needed to fix so I swore of dating until I felt like I was ready in terms of maturity and the way I handle conflict.
Honestly, with the ex that got kicked out of school, that did make things easier for me to not have to see him everyday because I was able to just move on properly and after some time we did end up considering each other as friends. Seeing the other ex everyday gave me a lot of anxiety because honestly I never knew what he was going to do next. We dated for 10 months and alot of it was nice, some of it wasn’t nice but we were too young to really know how to deal with it in a healthy way so it was definitely good we broke up. But for the literal years after that he really shook things up for me to the extent I wondered what was gonna happen next and dreaded going to bed every night, fun times 
School was a toxic environment and I was feeling like cr*p about alot of things happening so no, I couldn’t move on while I was still at school. But when I left it was very freeing.

Breakups happen and sometimes it’s for the better or for the worst. Although some people are affected more than others for me I would absolutely hate it.
Yes I did. Well I couldn’t do it in person so I gave her a note and said not to read it until she had gotten home. Long story short she didn’t follow my directions and posted it on her snapchat story which I thought was really childish but we all cope in different ways I guess? I had broken up with her because I think I rushed into that relationship and I didn’t know if I had truly liked her or liked the affection and compliments she gave me. I was upset with her for a few days that she posted our business on social media so I avoided her for some time. We only had one class together and we sat by each other but I would just keep my mouth shut and my eyes in the other direction. It wasn’t to awkward because it was a new relationship (only a month) and we didn’t do anything major. We are friends now. She’s talking to a guy and I’m in another relationship. We both hangout, she drives and drops me off at softball games, we walk around in school, it’s like we never even dated unless someone brings it up.
No it didn’t really affect my behavior. Sometimes I get annoyed and want some time apart because we ARENT dating and she’s really clingy as friends and yeah but no it’s not really affected.
I was able to move on from it yes but like I said I didn’t really like her in the beginning but if it was someone I loved I probably wouldn’t be able to move on.
What about you @Discussions ?

I’m not sure if I’ve ever broken up with someone at school, I always did it away from school.

Oof. I was dating this one guy in elementary school and I broke up with him. It wasn’t bad but it was awkward always seeing him because we had so many mutual friends and would always be near each other during lunch breaks. Thinking about it now only makes me laugh!
