If the romance is long over and you’re struggling to decide how to break-up, here’s someone who’ll do the dirty work for you!
Breaking up with your partner is hard, we know that. The thought of a break-up is not on one’s mind when getting into a relationship (at least not for most of us). Even the term ‘break-up’ can send a shiver down our spine. But what else can one do when one realises that the girl or guy they’re seeing is great, but you two just don’t click? Or worse, you realise the person you are dating is nothing but a loser and on second thoughts you wouldn’t even wish to see your enemy with him/her! How does one tell him that it is just not meant to be, without having to go through the pain of confrontation and the resultant drama and heartache! Well, the days of drama are behind us and now all one has to do is to pay a modest sum and the dirty work would be done by an expert!
Bernd Dressler, a businessman in Germany, started the project ‘Separation Agency’ in 2006 after he stumbled upon this idea on eBay. His job description is basically that if someone wants to break-up and doesn’t have the guts to do it themselves, then all they need to do is get in touch with a break-up artist who would end the relationship on your behalf. In short, it’s the work that actress Britney Brooks does in the film “The Break-Up Artist”.
“I have four packages for the service. The first service is ‘phone call’ in which they remain friends and it is very friendly. The second is a phone call again but it is more direct and that there will be no contact any more. The third is to write a letter, but this service is not booked very often. The fourth option is a personal visit. The normal phone call is around 29.95 Euros and the personal visit costs 65 Euros. The most common service is a phone call for ‘let’s just be friends,’” reveals Dressler.
Agreed, it is tough to break-up and confront your partner, but why involve a third party? “People have a problem because nobody knows what to do. We, as a separation agency, think that we only have a task of sending a message from one person to the other.
