30 Funny “Break Up Lines” That People Came Up With

If people broke up with each other the same way they used cheesy pick-up lines, the world would be a much happier place—full of giggling, constant sunshine, and far fewer tears. At least, that’s the theory.

We’ve all been there, caught in the awkward dance of farewells and parting words as our final breakup lines. Navigating breakups can be tricky, but sometimes a touch of humor can lighten the mood.
