Yup, probably the oldest negotitation tactic and the least effective: throwing out the Break-Up Card.
Why do we sometimes do this in relationships - throw out the breakup card when we don’t mean it? Is it to threaten? To create leverage? Or is just to get a rise? When you do this and don't mean it, it ends up undermining your credibility and even worse, hurts the other person and can have irrevocable damage. No one wants to feel played or be with someone who cries wolf.
Play fair and say what you mean then stick to it.
