I broke up with my boyfriend a few years ago and I feel bad to make him sad.

  I know how you feel, Milena; but it wouldn’t not be fair to continue just because you felt bad for him.

My boyfriend broke up with me in 1992. I never gave up on him and we are married since 2002. We have a wonderful family now.

I heard once that there is live after get married, so I believe that after broke up the same should happen. (It´s a joke obviously, and I hope my wife doesn´t see this)

Hello Tim! What about the phrasal verb “do away” what is it meaning? Can I translate it as Acabar too?

Thanks a lot.

  Beto,
  do away with somebody means to murder someone to kill!
  If you’re looking for words in order to express a end a relationship, I’m gonna write some words down to you:
  
  split up
  run out on
  grow away from
  drift apart
  break down
  throw over(old-fashioned)
  give someone the heave-ho(informal)
  go your separate ways
  put some distance between
  
  That’s it! I strongly advise you take a look at those words above and learn more about them.
