So my boyfriend and I decided we really needed a break from each other.. why is a long story and irrelevant to my issue..

The thing is we both are in the same group of friends.

its me.. him.. this other guy.. and these other 2 girls.. were all pretty good friends.

so how do i take this break from him without making it awkward for my friends?
for instance, my one friend was planning on going to see a movie with my boyfriend and the other guy...
and she feels bad.

anyways, what are some tips to not make it awkward?

I'm going to give some tips here for you..Here's an interesting fact.Did you know that the median 22 year old woman has TWICE as much sex as the median 22 year old man? You might ask, how is that possible? If a woman's having sex, doesn't that mean a man is having sex at the same time? And thus, shouldn't men be having just as much sex as women? NO...because most men hardly get laid, or if they do, it's because they "got lucky." But a small group of men get laid ALL THE TIME, and @#%$ LOTS AND LOTS of women! It's evolution at work. Women follow their emotions, and that leads them to sleep with men. * Don't be sexually judgemental in any way. A woman's worst fear is to be perceived as a slut.Always be leading. It's just like dancing Don't show off. Don't talk about accomplishments or possessions. So the key is to believe your own bullshit, and other aspects about yourself If you do things this way, after a few months practice you WILL get laid like a rock star* Don't ignore your friends. Your friend's opinions more than just about anything else in the world. Nothing matters more than what they are thinking. Keep friends get everyone laughing.

pardon??

i've been in this situation a few times and it can be quite hard on the both of you and on the friends. my main bit of advice is not to argue in front of your friends. it will make them feel awkward and will result in them only wanting to hang around with you one at a time. just bite your tongue if he says something that pisses you off, unless it is absolutely, totally unreasonable. if we have done something that annoys each other we talk about it later, and do all the apologising etc. hope it all goes well, and it does get easier.

us arguing in front of them wouldn't happen because were staying completely away from each other. its the strain on my friends of, "we cant invite both we can only invite one". that would be awkward........
