| Has anyone ever been dumped via email?
Posted: 8/31/2006 12:36:12 PM | | I've been dumped by phone and have dumped by phone and e-mail. I'm not talking about serious relationships here btw that warrant more input. Better quickly with a minimum of fuss. Why go to the trouble of dragging someone someplace only to tell them to buzz off? To me that's insulting. | |

Posted: 8/31/2006 3:56:02 PM | YES. By email....the nerve.
And by phone - with someone I care VERY much about...mind you I knew it was coming, after a special dinner date two days before had become a talk about our future (produced by him oddly enough)...but I saw the fear in his eyes, and the defensive wall go up, and by the ned of the night could recognize his attempts to talk himself out of the relationship with me. So I knew it was coming when it did.
However, I think this is a cowardly way of breaking up with someone you are building an ACTUAL relationship with.
Now...if you have only been on a couple dates, or casually dating ~ I dont see too much of an issue with communicating in any form that you do. It sure beats NO communication and always wondering "what happend?" Ever been there anyone...just left to wonder? | |

Posted: 8/31/2006 5:27:20 PM | First: I believe in the Golden Rule - Treat people the way that you want to be treated.
I actually met someone who had stood me up when we were supposed to have our first meeting. She'd had a bad day and didn't have the courtesy to call me and let me know that she changed her mind. A few days later, we went for ice cream and ended up watching a movie at her place. She was very giddy and enthusiastic when I left, but she stopped answering e-mails and phone calls altogether...ZERO EXPLANATION. That's Life, though. I've tried to tell people why it's over in person - sometimes it works and sometimes you spend weeks getting unwanted calls and e-mails and text messages. I guess it's a crapshoot either way. | |

Posted: 8/31/2006 5:40:01 PM | | Yes, been dumped by e-mail; in this particular relationship, though, it was a relief...I was about ready to break it off myself, and his e-mail simply confirmed he was the coward I thought he was! | |

Posted: 8/31/2006 5:48:05 PM | | got dumped via text msg. 2 hrs after she said she loved me and wanted to spend the rest of her life with me. I felt at least she should have had the nerve to tell me in person. | |

Posted: 9/2/2006 5:03:44 AM | Yes. The last fellow I was in a relationship with dumped me over email after 4 years of being together.
It took a LONG time for the hurt to go away. | |

Posted: 9/2/2006 5:34:19 AM | Yes I was just a few months back. Sends me an instant message saying sorry i need to break up with you just because thats how I feel. talked to him later and he told me he needed time as he had too much on his plate so I did just that and we im'd back in forth for 2 weeks and 1 message would be sweet and the next day it would be like he was treating me like a door mat. found out he was seeing someone else. Men are dogs. Don't talk sweet to the woman for months and do things with her including sharing your thoughts and fellings and than drop her. Don't message xdriver14562002 as he will use you and go to the next. Good luck SICutie. By the way I have met someone and things are going quite well. | |

Posted: 9/2/2006 5:42:09 AM | I did the dumping...over voicemail since he was out of town working, and I'd taken a road trip to his place to find the other woman at his place. He'd denyed it for 2 weeks, but my gut told me to check it out for myself.
I just said he was busted...and I never heard from him again. | |

Posted: 9/2/2006 6:46:22 AM | | Yes, I was dumped by e-mail the day after my birthday, which is the day I joined pof. lol, I found 'he' had a very active profile here which was active while we were dating. I guess a person who dumps via e-mail is either a coward or lacks integrity or both. Neither traits are very attractive to me in a man, so it's easy for me to move on. | |

Posted: 9/2/2006 7:37:28 PM | Yep; been dumped both ways; e-mail and in person. I think I prefer e-mail actually. It stings a little bit less. I just ended a female friendship that way; it was the only way I could since I didn't have her cell number, which she discouraged me from using. Didn't have her home phone either so I guess it wasn't much of a friendship. | |

Posted: 9/2/2006 8:03:22 PM | I've recently experienced the "No Communication" method and it is the worst by far. One guy I had only gone out w/ only once but he wanted to go out the next night, said he would call and he did, said he would call after he took a shower- and that was it. I let it go. The other one I had been seeing quite often for a month. He called on Friday, said he was going to take a shower and would call me after. And guess what? He never did. But he was quite a drinker, had stood me up before, so I decided to let that go too.
So- whats with guys and taking showers, and not calling afterwards? Wierd that it happened twice. | |

Posted: 9/2/2006 8:08:51 PM | | Once by a woman that had told me how many @ssh*les she had dated before she met me. Seems to me that some of their personality traits rubbed off onto her. | |

Posted: 9/2/2006 9:00:52 PM | I have been dumped 2 times via e-mail, once was by my fiancee at the time, that was cruel, we were together for 4 years and she neve responded to my phone calls or e-mails. That hurt. As I got oover her I joined P.O.F. and met what I thought was a nice lady, she was a single mother and things seemed to be going well for 6 or 7 weeks, we were spending 3 or 4 days together each week and her daughter and I got a long very well...then sudenly she sends me an e-mail saying she is breaking up with me, no explaination given...it would have been nice to at least get her reasoning, a few days later I checked her profile on this site and I noticed where until then I was the only one that had her on my list of "favorites" she has a few other guys that have her on her list. I hope these guys do not spend too much money on her or else they may regret contacting her as she clearly has no consideration for anyone's feeling feelings or class.
I think breaking up face to face is best, you may not like to do it but it is only fair, plus she does owe me a small amount of money. | |

Posted: 9/3/2006 9:57:46 AM | i was dumped by text message once by IM once but I honestly didn't mind cause i was ready to move on anyway. She just kind of saved me the trouble i guess.
Funny thing is, a month later she would send me IMs trying to hangout again. | |

Posted: 9/3/2006 10:16:28 AM | | I've dumped through email twice and was dumped through voice mail once. I prefer it that way, to be honest. My ex dumped me by phone and it wasn't pretty. I started crying and I HATE showing men that they made me cry. I have enough trouble letting them in my life as it is. I very rarely will admit they mean anything to me. Been hurt too much, I guess. But anyway, I'd rather be dumped through email or voicemail, that way I can deal with my feelings my own way, rather than hating myself for crying. And I also let out a slew of cuss words at him and hung the phone up in his ear. At least through email I can rant and rave and then decide to send it, before actually sending it. I can think and not just react to anger. | |

Posted: 9/4/2006 5:13:31 AM | It's been done to me once. It's weak, shows a lack of class, but in her case I didn't really care - she was a bit too kooky and it served us both well.
I haven't done it, and would only do it if I couldn't reasonably get through to her via phone or in person.
Happy fishing all and easy on the 'cutting bait'.

You get used to it.  | |

Posted: 9/4/2006 7:30:14 AM | I've been let off via email. Apparently, it was her indirect way of saying "Fight for me" or some other****mamie inference, since she found someone else who made her happier -- someone 12 years older with 3 kids. When disposing of garbage, I guess the quickest method seems the most appropriate -- to the garbage collector.
One would hope maturity doesn't take back seat to convenience when matters of the heart are at stake. But what do we really know of the people we love? | |
