"How to Ruin Everything" is the sixth studio album by the punk rock group Face to Face, released in 2002 (see 2002 in music). This was their last album before their 5-year breakup from November 2003 to January 2008.

"How to Ruin Everything" was also Face to Face's only album without Chad Yaro on guitar. The band remained as a three-piece, making it the first time Face to Face had not recorded an album with him since their 1992 debut "Don't Turn Away".
