I just got dumped via text message

[Emilia]

So I texts her today and her response was "this relationship isn't working. I've already moved on from this. Please don't contact me again. I'd appreciate it. Good luck.

 

Really? What is wrong with people? I'm done with this ****.

I wonder what you said, it's not often that people get this dismissive with someone without provocation. The fact that you said you didn't see her as 'LTR material' tells me you probably didn't treat her all that well and I guess that blew up in your face.

The hammer was coming from me soon. She saw the writing on the wall. Maybe she felt better doing it first.

 

After reading this post, I really don't feel bad for you anymore.

 

I just hope that when you were going to dump her, you'd at least have the maturity to do it in person.

ahhhhhhhhhh, so it's that you didn't get to it first that's really bothering you.

 

2 months.. you weren't that interested anyway... txt may have been rude, but it seems fitting in this situation.

She was rude and immature. You don't need people like this around you.

it's not just a younger generation thing, my ex in his forties tried to dump me by ignoring me. When I asked what was going on, I got a TEXT dumping....after a year together. Obviously now I realise that I dodged a big bullet there BUT then I realised that I had done something similar to an ex..texting him to say I was unhappy (but not dumping him).although we did quickly afterwards have a long phone call where we did in fact break up....so big karma coming back on me there.....I would not do that again though. Fine if you've just dated but the line for me is if you have been proper bf/gf.

Yeah. Upon first reading your OP I was going to blast HER for being such an inconsiderate b*itch but after reading further on and hearing YOUR thinking I'm not so sure anymore.

 

Does anyone see the irony here? He says she was NOT LTR material and YET they both were inviting each other to meet their respective families after only a couple of months!

 

Granted, she bailed on meeting your family but who does this when you're not really into the other person?!? I certainly never introduce my casual dating partners to family or even my closest friends until I know we're exclusive and that I feel like there could be a future together. Geez.

 

Although I am appalled with the whole text break-up scenario which seems to be an epidemic these days regardless of age, I think Million.to.1 might be right. You sound like your more pissed about her cutting you loose first than anything else. It's an ego bruiser after all.

 

Good luck next time around.

Here is the thing.

 

I was in a nearly TWO YEAR long relationship - we had just lost a baby four days prior. And he says

 

"I think I'm all done with this dating stuff for a while, but I'd like us to remain close friends"

 

VIA TEXT.

 

So I respond - "I think you're being exceptionally selfish right now, if this is your choice, right now, where we are, then I don't WANT to be friends with you"

 

And I got LIT THE HELL UP.

 

At some point I realized someone who lacks the emotional maturity to sit and talk about taking a break in a relationship - face to face - after everything that had just happened. Isn't someone I want to be involved with.

 

Do I still love him?

 

Absolutely - and pathetically I suppose.

 

But Like pnocho - the way he handled this has made me disrespect him on such a huge level. And the fact that he denies his roll in the storm that came afterwards ... makes me respect him even less.
