Companionate Breakup

the collaborative, amicable and (ironically) emotionally connecting ending of a relationship done when emotionally mature, emotionally healthy people respectfully acknowledge their differing wants and needs and agree together within a context of mutual respect to end the aspects of their relationship which do not serve them, sometimes enabling them to part as friends with love in their hearts.
Mature people in love who find that they just aren't right for each other don't have to find some bullshit reasons to hate each other to justify ending the relationship, they can recognize what isn't working and communicate, to have a companionate breakup.

Companion

Downsized or miniature versions of local phone directories that were portable enough to be carried around in your car. They were popular during the late 1990s and 2000s in the era when cell phones were becoming ever more commonplace and affordable (but before I-phones were popular) and many still relied on the white pages or yellow pages for information.
If you had a cell phone, the problem of carrying around a bulky phone book in your car was solved when miniature versions - known as companions - were made available and could easily be placed on the seat whenever a phone number needed to be looked up while on the road.
