So Fellas.... The scenario is as follows: the girl gets distant- slow or no text replies/ not talking on the phone... then says we need to meet in person.. its important... What do you think... What do you do...?

 

Has this ever happened to you? Have you ever thought a girl was about to dump you? How did you react? What did you do?

Not a man, but as a woman in the distant past I would get paranoid, cry, beg, ask what was wrong, assume the worst, and be horribly annoying and lose all self-respect.

 

I've gotten to the point where I can let go of things now, such as relationships, and assuming I've been a good person - which I always try to do - I assume the best. If a breakup were to happen, yeah, I'd be hurt, but deep down I'd feel like it was probably something with the other person and not me.

 

But your thoughts and feelings really do lead to a lot of what "happens" to you. It's that whole self-fulfilling prophecy thing.

I did this once.

 

Gradually stopped talking as much, then told him one day that we should grab coffee.

He ended up telling me that if I was dumping him I could just do it over the phone, he would rather not have it happen in public.

 

 

 

It made it easy. He was pretty heartbroken

Dump them first, and tell them that it's because she's too fat for me.

The old "You can't fire me, I quit!"

 

Classy.

I used to get all bothered and 'down', but since it's happened so many times, including the 'divorce' talk, I just express disappointment in the dynamic, either out loud or to myself, and go have a beer with my friends. No sense in getting worked up over something outside of my control. People do what they do.

Probably ram my head in the wall a few times while trying to figure out where I messed up at......again.

Nothing.

 

I've never been upset about being dumped. The fact that the woman was attracted to me is good and fairly rare thing, so it will live in my head as a good memory.

I am not alone! I would a million times rather be dumped via phone or email than in have a special meeting up to do it. (Different if you live together or are together anyways). I mean, unless he has some expensive gifts to soothe my broken heart, why does it have to be more dramatic? I assume minds are made up at that point.

Phone yes, email no.

 

I got dumped by this girl, I had a feeling it was going to happen as she had become distance, and she went a whole day without responding, when I texted her the next day asking if she was okay (we had been texting every day for the few months) she said she was busy, yeah didn't buy that as she's always had time to respond and text a bit.

 

Then a few days later I wake up to a facebook message dumping me. I was rather pissed that she couldn't just call me or tell me after we hung out.
