When Breaking Up Is on Your Mind
Questions for two people weighing a breakup to share first
Thirty cards for two people unsure whether to break up, to look at where the relationship and their feelings stand right now.
They slowly bring up when your hearts drifted apart, the things that keep repeating, and the hopes and fears you still hold for each other.
Rather than fueling a fight or rushing to a conclusion, they're arranged to help you notice why you want to break up and the words you haven't yet shared.
How it works
- Cut out the cards, shuffle them, and first agree on what you'll each hold to and what you need in order to speak freely.
- While one person answers, listen all the way through without cutting in or trying to persuade.
- If emotions run high, stop, and it's okay not to reach a conclusion today.
When · with whom
Good for couples facing a possible breakup who want to calmly check in on each other's feelings and situation.
