My boyfriend recently broke up with me and he used the line 'it's not you it's me.' He didn't actually come out and say that but he hinted towards it. He told me a long story about all the problmes he was having but I really believe now that it was me who was the problem for him. Does anyone have any idea why people use the

'it's not you ....it's me' excuse as there way to get out of something instead of just really being honest.

Sometimes they really believe it IS them, and sometimes they are right. If he made the decision to break up - then he had a problem or concern or issues with the relationship. Since he is part of the relationship and his is the part that had the problem, then it IS him.

 

I got that line before. I said "Oh, well -- too bad for you then, bye" and that was the end of it. ;)

I got that one before. Fortunately, I was in a good space when it happened, and with my best look of concern I touched his cheek and said

 

"You know, I am glad we agree on this."

 

:laugh:

I think that when a man says its me not you he is telling the truth, he is just to much of a coward to admit that he does not want to be with you and for some reason it makes him feel that it is more justified.. Women just don't want to listen to that.

 

What he means by that is...............I do not want to be with you!

 

Don't take that so hard because you are still a wonderful human being. If he does not want to be with you simply know this much.........HIS LOSS!

 

And truly.............why would you want a guy that doesen't want to be with you?
