When I decided to write a blog about my life’s journey through technology, I never thought I would be talking about Skype as the increasingly popular way to break up a romance. A visit to the Museum of Broken Relationships in Zagreb, Croatia showed several presentations where Skype was being used as a new stage for “Dear John” scenarios. Go to the website to read more about this.
The museum was established after a traveling exhibition of failed relationships and their ruins. The description for the museum says, “Unlike ‘destructive’ self-help instructions for recovery, the exhibits offer a chance to overcome an emotional collapse by contributing to the collection.”
Conceptualized in Croatia by Olinka Vištica and Dražen Grubišić, the Museum has toured internationally, amassing an amazing collection.

What a wonderful concept for a museum… a place to put the relics of your past do that you don’t have to carry them around anymore (it pass them on to someone else to carry for you).
It’s also poignant to me as my first divorce was from a Fullbright Scholar from Croatia.
I have had so many break ups that I alone could fill a museum. However, I dont waste a minute throwing everything out. The one time I kept a piece of jewelry I had the opportunity to show it to my old boyfriend. He had no recollection of it. I learned a tough life lesson. When it’s over, it’s over.
Thank you for posting. What’s new in your neck of the woods?
They’ll make a museum out of anything, won’t they? It makes me think, though. Breaking up *is* hard to do. What’s next? A museum of getting fired?
