History

It’s really simple actually, Dump Your Significant Jerk Day was established to help those who have a seriously bad relationship with someone have an excuse to finally dump them on their bum. We’ve all been there, you know we have.

Why are we with them? Why are they so mean to me? Why do my friends always ask me why I’m with them and why I let them talk to me that way? When you start hearing this more than other people singing your partners praises, it’s time to get yourself a new partner.

Or at the very least, it’s time to get rid of the old one, sometimes you’ve just got to do it for yourself, as the song says.

As our opening quote says, sometimes it’s really hard to get out of a bad relationship once you’re in one. After all, at least they’re there, and while they may not be the greatest company, at least you’re never quite alone.

Unless they leave for the night or just don’t bother coming home until late. Don’t let that be an excuse for you anymore, Dump Your Significant Jerk Day reminds you that you’re worth more than that!
