There are many justifiable reasons to break up with someone: lying, cheating, manipulation, etc. Much to the chagrin of some of you folks, breaking up with someone because they're a bad texter is not exactly the same thing. The same goes for being woken up from a nap or not liking that they're a Julia Roberts fan.

We love the concept of having high standards in theory. Of course, settling for just anyone will only lead to disaster.

Perhaps subconsciously that's what you wanted the whole time. In that case, maybe just don't date for a bit? Because you're clearly not ready for a serious relationship.

That being said, if you all didn't have these problematic reasons to break up with your significant others, then we wouldn't have nearly as much fodder for second-hand amusement. So for your own benefit, you should probably reevaluate your approach to relationships if you're one of these people. But for our benefit, keep 'em coming because there is nothing more entertaining than drama that doesn't affect us personally. Keep scrolling below for these petty reasons people broke up with their exes. When you're finished, here is a list of the top Karens of the week!
