Brooklyn’s Best Places to Break Up With Your (Formerly) Loved One
If you’re thinking about breaking up with your boyfriend/girlfriend/whatever, now is probably the best time of year to do it. It’s early enough before the holiday season to avoid the guilt associated with breaking someone’s heart at what is already a potentially depressing time of year.
