Recognizing when it’s time to break up with someone is one of the hardest things to do.

We get into relationships with so many hopes and dreams and, when they start to go awry, it’s hard for us to face the facts. As a result, we struggle to figure out when it’s time to break up with someone because we just don’t want to face it.

I am guessing all of your friends are telling you many reasons why you should be breaking up with your person but you think that they don’t know him the way you do so why should you listen? I’m here to tell you that there are five concrete, universal signs that you should look for to know when it’s time to break up with someone. Listen and learn…

#1 — If they lie to you more than once.

Does your person lie to you? Do they lie to you over and over? If yes, then it might just be time to break up with them.

We all tell lies. Sometimes little white lies to prevent us from hurting someone else. Sometimes lies because we are embarrassed by something we did. Sometimes lies that are unintentional.

The difference between these kind of lies and the kind of lies that show it’s time to break up with someone is their frequency.
