BREAKUPS are never easy – but one woman decided to pull the plug on her relationship using a Google Doc.<\/p>\n

Laura Esposito realised her time with her ex had run its course after two years, when she was about to move to a new city at the age of 22.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

However, instead of ending it face-to-face, she revealed she took a digital approach, and it didn\u2019t go down well.<\/p>\n

New York-based Laura explained to Insider: \u201cIt seemed impractical to drive two hours to northern New Jersey, break it off with him, and then drive back home.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cPlus, I was an anxious driver. Did anyone want an already nervous person behind the wheel, doubled down with grief? It'd be a liability.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, to put it simply, I broke up with him in a Google<\/span> Doc for the greater good of humankind.\u201d<\/p>\n

I broke up with love of my life & went on rebound – don’t make mistakes I did<\/h3>\n

She compiled a \u201csingle-spaced, two-page document\u201d, which explained to her ex that they needed to find out who they were, without being in each other\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n

Laura added: \u201cIn other words \u2014 I was a coward and couldn't bear witness to his pain, knowing that I was the cause.\u201d<\/p>\n

While she stood by her reasons for the break-up, she realised doing it by Google Doc may not have been the best approach when she saw him in a bar a few months later.<\/p>\n

Laura said her usually calm ex \u201cyelled\u201d at her, saying he couldn\u2019t believe she had done it that way.<\/p>\n

A 2020 Pew Research Center survey found one in five adults feel it is acceptable to split up with someone over text or online.<\/p>\n

However, Laura added that although breaks can be virtual, she now realises they \u201cshouldn\u2019t be if you can help it\u201d and she \u201ccheated her ex out of the respect he deserved\u201d.<\/p>\n

Laura is now\u00a0dating\u00a0someone else and she\u2019s agreed that Google Docs are \u201coff the table\u201d.<\/p>\n
