This novel tells the story of Min Green and how she and Ed Slaterton met at a party, saw a movie, followed an old woman, shared a hotel room, and broke each other's hearts.

That's their breakup story What's Yours?

We Broke Up Because:

He thought commitment was scary. I thought his nose was too large.

He made me watch him play Skyrim and Dwarf Fortress for hours.

We broke up because you went away and when you had the chance to get back to me, you chose somewhere else. I still have a box like Min’s. Its not in the back of my closet, its in the back of my heart. 

you just didn’t love me as much as you loved your cat.

we broke up because we were both cowards

we broke up because he’s a fictional character.

“And maybe she had certain beliefs that if you love somebody, you’re gonna like them too. And that isn’t necessarily true.”

New York wasn’t a fantasyland.

You started reading philosophy.

…and so you stopped loving me.

Like the novel by David Nicholls: we broke up because, although I loved you, I just didn’t like you anymore. 

We broke up because he was more in a relationship with his friends and Xbox than with me.

We broke up not because you would eat bits of things that shouldn’t be eaten (soap is not food) nor the fact that the song “No Scrubs” by TLC could describe you better than I could. We broke up because I loved you and would have followed you the the ends of Earth and back, but no matter how much I loved you, you would never do the same. 

We broke up because we were each other’s first love.

We broke up because he was just a product of my imagination.

We broke up because the cracks in a ship’s hull don’t matter until it has to stay afloat. 

We broke up because you lied about the little things, and somehow, over time, the big things you didn’t lie about stopped mattering.
