SICute Yeah, Hail to the Queen, or whatever!! I was being unpatriotic, a bit, but my hormones were overtaking my brain cells. Works for men, right??

SICutie I think I'm just on an upward trend there. Peaking means you've reached the top right and from there on it's downhill? Geez, not for me, sad to say, I mean good to say just hard to handle being single....I'm sure you relate.

SICutie Heck no!! I have the sex drive of a 22 year old male, myself and I'm a bit older than you! I wish I could shut it off or turn it down at times, but I haven't been able to find the switch!! I wouldn't worry, I think you're still very much on the upswing!

Just my two cents worth but, e-mail or over the phone, both seem kinda cowardly to me.

Yep!
Actually a guy I met from Lava.
We were totally incompatible in life, except for... well... *laugh*...
Anyways... We were together for totally wrong reasons...

After daily (slightly smothering) phone calls (his) and lots of (overly affectionate and sexual) messages on the phone (also his),
I was trying to think of a gentle but decisive way to end things.

Suddenly WHAMO...he beat me to the punch, an email dumping... and I quote:

"Dear R... Yes, another week sails by. So sorry, no excuse. Too much to do and so little motivation. I guess I should bow out and apologize but it's no way to treat you anyway.
I should want to see you more, but I guess that's not the case.
Rather than torture you or hurt you further, I better just stop.
We can talk if you want, but you probably don't want to too much?
Sorry again. Guess I better stick to just dating. Hope your week was good.
Humbly signing off ... D."

I was ticked off for all of one day, and then very relieved. And now... because I don't like to burn bridges, we are still in touch by email. We did meet up a few times after the "breakup", but I can honestly say it doesn't bother me at all anymore that we are not "together".
Bit of a hit to the pride, but definitely not a terrible situation. Fortunately no emotional strings were pulled/yanked.

As for telephone dumpings? Don't get me started.. that seems to be the next worse...
and unfortunately, love WAS involved with that one. *wry smile*

Count me in as well. Happened once (email). I didn't bother responding.

I actually think she was afraid she was about to be dumped so she preempted it, if that was case it's a shame- it wasn't going to happen......... I wish her only the best.


Sometimes I feel like the proverbial tortoise in a world of hares..........

================================================

All I can say is where are women like you when need them. I'm a very sweet, decent single man looking for someone like you. You don't have family out near Oregon do ya. lol.
I'm tired of dealing with most of the women I seem to meet here in Oregon. Either ya get the "I'm at least 95% into belongings you buy me & have slept with at least 10 guys a year" or it's the "I'm into the pot and all peace and love revolution". it's very unattractive here to me. Don't get me wrong I'm not a prude, I just like to know where you've been in the past and if you have slept with that many people have ya got some medical to tell me your not carrying something around with ya.

ahh maybe I'm just too picky about things like that. I dunno anymore. just tired of being a loner out there.

As far as the whole dumping someone in e-mail, yeah that's pretty shameless as far as I can see. I'm sure it somewhat depends on how long you've been with the person and how you would be able to reach them in the first place.

LMAO, oh wolly, are you for real? I'm sorry I honestly don't mean to laugh.

Email.

Man I thought it was funny but bad, that one of my friends got dumped by txt message.

Man are people actually getting to be inpersonal. Can't stand up to the plate, and face up the truth, face to face.

adam - you do seem very nice, but.....if i lived in oregon i wouldn't tell you how many people i'd been with either.

i'm not materialistic, simple country gal here. but i won't discuss my past with you either. if you get involved with a woman and want her tested, i respect that.

let's face it, we all partied we all have a past. i just don't carry mine around with me

pykajiura - i am totally for real and totally thanking god he dumped me! your friend is better off too

-and we all grow from it.

I'm not the same person I was 20 years ago or even the same person I was a few months ago. When we meet someone who sparks our interests we should let the relationship evolve naturally. Attempts at sanitizing (not literally, but some might need it-lol) and fitting anyone into a preconceived mold will only result in one cheating themselves from fully experiencing the other person.

I was grateful for my experience, was visiting my friends that night to ask them, how am I gonna break up with this guy, I ask for some space, he clings tighter. That night, Mr. Wonderful is home getting plastered, not out with his perpetual friends as usual, but home alone. Then at 3 am on email breaking up with me. Fate stepped in and saved ME the trouble, I was so glad to get that email, I laughed at the way it happened and of COURSE he tried to back out, didn't mean it I got drunk....blah blah. How pathetic is that? How happy do you think I am to be away from that?? YIPPEE!!

Yep, happened to me.

After a weekend with him (it was long distance), he was kinda distant but didn't say anything (don't even stick up for him by saying doing it by email is just like dumping you on the phone...I would've preferred the phone, and regardless...he had the whole weekend! haha), and I was sick so I wasn't saying a lot...Mainly sleeping or going through hell with headaches, sinuses, etc. I asked him to cancel a tennis date we had with his friends and after that, he went totally only-talk-when-necessary. I leave for home and find an email from him, that we're not getting along or whatever. Of course he didn't answer his phone, reply to my voice mail, or even my emails. I had no real reason. Later on when we got back together he said I was being difficult! lol I was feeling like death for an entire two days and I was being difficult...Yikes. Would hate to see what he would call me if I was pregnant and didn't feel like doing any extreme sports.

I never have been , but I did it to my ex-wife in a way.

After the divorce, we had agreed to remain in contact occasionally. I helped her shop for a computer, and had this strange experience as I left her that day. As I was getting out of the car, I just saw the "real her" for the first time ever. In one second, I just saw exactly who and what she was. I got out of the car, I never looked back.

We were supposed to trade our tax info, and I was working some long hours to make some much needed cash. It was a long time before the deadline ( it was well before Easter) , and I took a few days to get it to her.

She was ****ing about the delay, and I finally got it off to her. I asked for mine, and ( surprise , surprise) waited weeks. Fairly funny, since she had all the info and it would have taken 30 seconds to do.

I decided to wait until Easter Monday, and see if I was going to get my info. When Easter Monday came, I verified my e-mail. There was nothing.

At that point, I sent her the e-mail I had typed and saved just after getting out of the car. I told her, in a very clear and respectful way, that I never wanted her to contact me in any way ever again - unless there was a legal reason.

After that was sent, I blocked every means she had to contact me - and it felt incredibly liberating. She tried three times to send me something, but it all was sent directly to the trash and bounced back as unread.

That is when my life really started to turn to the better. The minute that email was sent, she was totally and completely eliminated out of my thoughts and memories.

My only regret was not doing it MUCH sooner.
