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:

We broke up because I had big dreams, and you always reminded me that nightmares were also dreams. You never believed in me, so I stopped believing in us. 

we broke up coz you told me you remember me whenever there’s a new twilight movie.

and i thought, okay, guess that’s nice

wish i’d taken it as a sign

that once the twilight movies stop,

you’d stop remembering me, too

oh weeeell

Every photograph he ever took of me was out of focus.

We broke up because we both loved Ayn Rand too much. 
I told you I would never need you. We both said we would “never live for the sake of another man.”
And so we lived selfishly, not thinking of the other.

And that’s what broke us apart. We were too alike and way too literal.  

We broke up because your parents were getting a divorce and you thought we needed one too.

Although we were never really together, he “liked me but not enough to be in love” with me, and that was the end of us. Than I listened to Coldplay’s The Scientist and sobbed for the whole Sunday.

We broke up because I know the difference between determination and desperation. I could run for days and still I’d never catch up. Which might be due more to my leg length than stamina.

I painstakingly watched you date so many of my friends for four years. When it finally dawned on you that you were in love with me, that’s when I realized that I wasn’t really in love with you; I was just in love with the idea of you.

We broke up because you moved a lot faster than me.  You wanted something solid and I wanted to keep it light so you moved on.  That hurt.  You were willing to try again, but I was to defensive and I scared you away.  I’m really sorry for that.

You liked me a lot and that scared me.  In the end we were just practice for the future, and thats okay.

Also, I found out we were distantly related and that kinda freaked me out so…

We broke up because there was never time for us, but always time for them. Always.

I said I wanted us to have some special thing and you decided that that special thing should be staying home every night making out on a couch in my basement

he couldn’t tell me the truth and I couldn’t keep pretending he cared. 

you wanted more and i needed less. 

I expect to be treated like my worth at all times. Not just when you feel like it.

We broke up because I was tired of being there when you wanted..and because you played with Magic Cards, you’re an adult.
