There seems to be a never-ending stream of gurus and experts coming out of the woodwork to advise you on relationships. Whether you read something like 'Dear Abby' because you are seeking it, or you just happen to be watching TV, then you can be sure throughout your day you will be told by countless people how to make your relationship work. If only all the advice was good, most of it makes your relationship worse! I bet you already know that America has one of the highest divorce rates in the world? Sadly the rate is around 50%, that is one in every two first-time married couples get divorced! That number increases with second and third-time marriages.

In this short article I thought it would be interesting to stop looking at what you should do to make a relationship work, and look at the opposite - what to do to make it fail. There are three very simple steps to follow, and each one will leade you closer and closer to disaster. But there is hope! By understanding how to make a relationship fail, you can also avoid it, and perhaps, you may one day be the person everyone goes to for relationship advice.

Step #1:

Go home every night and do the same thing, over and over again. Fall into a routine, and never change it up. It's easy to do. All you really have to remember is to take your partner for granted. Just assume that he or she is lucky to be with you, and you don't have to do anything special.

The first step may take a few months to kick in, but you have loads of time. Leech all the romance and passion right out of the heart of the relationship, and then step quickly onto step 2.

Step #2:

Do fun things...but make sure you exclude your partner. Make it obvious your partner takes a backseat to your friends. Sure, you'll do something with your partner, but only if your friends have nothing better to offer.

If it's your partner's birthday, and your friends offer to take you out clubbing, go with your friends. You will more than likely have a better time with them, than getting all 'smoochy' with your partner by candlelight, right? Make a saucy remark about every even slightly hot guy or girl that passes when you are with your partner. Dribble and drool as well for extra effect.

Make your partner feel unappreciated, worthless and insignificant, then step seamlessly into step 3.

Step #3:

You've made it! Your once-strong relationship is now firmly on the verge of collapse. Your partner is bored and full of self-doubt. You can finally feel good about lying or having an affair. After all, it's all about you.

Make telling lies a habit. If you are being asked about not spending enough time with your partner then be sure to brush it off with a quick excuse. Make up some story about working late on some big project when really you are out with someone hot from the office you know they are insanely jealous about. Once they find out what you are really upto then that is bound to end the relationship.

Not to worry. It is not as if you put any effort into making your relationship work anyway.

The End

If you're looking to end a relationship fast, follow these simple steps. It's as easy as 1,2,3!
