Dear Breakup Girl,
I think my boyfriend's going to dump me. Are there any signs that I can look for to be sure?
-- Confused Betty

Dear Betty,
Is this a familiar feeling? Look back over the last couple of Baldwins in your life - did you think they were going to dump you too? (Whether they did or not is beside the point.) If so, the the only important "sign" here is the one in your head that reads, "INSECURITY ZONE! I'M NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO HAVE THIS BOYFRIEND." And that's one sign you should spray-paint over pretty fast.

But maybe you think he's going to dump you because, oh, I don't know, he doesn't call, act happy to be with you, or treat you like the Princess Betty that you are. If so, then, with all due respect, what are you doing asking me for more signs? You're the one who needs to put up that big billboard that says "Buh-bye."
Love,
Breakup Girl
