“Too Good at Goodbyes” is a break-up song by English singer and songwriter Sam Smith. The lyrics of the song were inspired by a personal experience in Smith’s life. According to an interview Smith had with BBC Radio 1, “Too Good at Goodbyes” is based on a real romantic relationship that he was in and that the lyrics basically talk about him becoming an expert “at getting dumped”.

In his commentary on the song, Smith said in 2016, he was in a relationship with someone who dumped him “about three times”. According to him, on the third time that he was dumped by his significant other, he had got so good at being dumped that he “kind of knew” how to handle the whole situation very well. In another interview with CBS’ Radio.com, Smith referred to that particular relationship as “a very tumultuous” one.
According to him, every single time, his lover dumped him, he got “better and better at saying goodbye”.
