| Has anyone ever been dumped via email? Posted: 9/20/2006 12:11:11 PM | | i have, and especially if you have been dating for a significant amount of time, it shows a real lack of respect, not only for you but what you had. | |

| Has anyone ever been dumped via email? Posted: 9/20/2006 12:38:36 PM | Had it happen to me once, years ago now, we had been together for 8 months and I had just nicely woken up and it was waiting in my inbox.
Nice way to start a day 
I laugh about it now, but at the time my reaction was "Are you f'n kidding me?" | |

Posted: 9/20/2006 12:38:53 PM | | unless the person is prone to violence, I see no reason to do it any other way but in person. ppl can delete email and hang up on you, but a face-to-face goodbye is always the best option. it shows that you not only respect the other person, but yourself, as well. everyone needs closure, and denying someone that is selfish | |

face to face - shows courage, allows discusion phone - lacks courage, gives the phoner the ability to terminate call text - coward, although shows how much they really think of others e-mail - coward, although shows how much they think of others
the last two don't really have any form of discusion or chance of | |

| Has anyone ever been dumped via email? Posted: 9/21/2006 5:34:05 PM | Well, I recently got dumped by email....he said he had too much personal stuff going on...what with a baby on the way that he isn't even sure is his...timeline doesn't match up...and two deaths within a week and a half of each other....I mean, I understand the need for space, but we're 400kms apart!!! You'd think that would be enough space!! He still wants to keep our friendship going, which is a good thing, but I don't think it's fair to "abandon" me just because he's dealing with that stuff. He even told me to forget what we might have been able to start! I can't believe it, as he has never been an ***hole like that before.
/end rant
Sorry....I'm pretty sad because it was only yesterday....came home from work, checked email and got the dumped letter. | |

| Has anyone ever been dumped via email? Posted: 10/17/2006 4:53:42 PM | | Hmmm..I was dumped via-email..by my husband, lol! Been a year now..so how nice of him hah? He went to Panama--apparently to work, lol then sent me an email that he was going to remain there for good! WOW, what a dagger to the heart. But hey, I survived the hurt and her I am , a year later. His loss..one of his biggest complaints he sent that bothered him and hurt him..was that I never finished my cup of coffee he would make for me int he early mornings. Geezz, I didn't even know it bothere him! See why 'communication' is important? Gosh, did I learn my lesson! Next time..I'll finish my coffee!! LOL..I am a surviver! I will find 'true love' and this time for real!!! Good luck everyone . | |

| Has anyone ever been dumped via email? Posted: 11/27/2006 12:24:01 PM | I am guilty of that one.... I am not a coward by any means, i just couldn't face him, he had me too low on the totem pole, and I began feeling like a sex toy, that only got brought out on weekends.. I was in love, or so I thought.. But I thought he set it up pretty good since he said the Seahawks are loosing, my back hurts, what else could go wrong? I said, I could break up with you!!! although it didn't end there, I got at least 15 more messages over the next 3 or 4 days... | |

| Has anyone ever been dumped via email? Posted: 11/27/2006 6:22:41 PM | I was broken up with over IM on Valentine's day. I was shocked, but my response was laughter (and sadness) and I told him that if THAT is how he handles problems, he's not the man I thought he was anyway and I'm glad that was his decision.
lmao, loser. who does that? | |

| Has anyone ever been dumped via email? Posted: 11/28/2006 2:55:13 PM | | I really don't mind the act up getting broken up with via e-mail. I actually prefer it that way so that I can wallow and be shocked by myself lol. I only ask for an explanation of some sort...even if it is an "it's not you it's me" explanation. I find it better than the bomb being dropped when I least expect it and lose face in front of that person. I find that any break up is better than the dropping off the face of the earth trick...I respect that some people don't have what it takes to face the person they are letting down and that it is too hard for them to hurt a person face to face. Sometimes a person really doesn't want to hurt the other person and so they find it easier to do it through the mail. Cowardly or not, everyone deals with things differently. | |

| Has anyone ever been dumped via email? Posted: 11/28/2006 3:07:13 PM | | i once. better never happen again, but i met him on the internet so guess i deserved it. even though dumping someone on the internet after a 2 year relationship is kind of pathetic! | |

| Has anyone ever been dumped via email? Posted: 11/28/2006 3:12:18 PM | | Yea and it happened today!!! I am soooooooooooooo PO'd. I can't believe it. We had been dating for 5 weeks and I know it is a short time, but it was going extremely well and he acted like he was happy too. Then all of a sudden it is said that I don't communicate the way he needs................right!!! Been there before with another guy last year (he dumped me via email too)..............wimps!!! I communicate just fine thank you! No one else in the world has ever told me this or held my communication skills against me. No I am not perfect, but who is? These men suffer from "little man syndrome" and they are insecure.................too bad I am not insecure!!! I don't get it!! Watch out for these types girls. Guys who have bad relationships with their mother, are short (sorry short men, but for the most part it is true) and use the "communication" excuse. These guys are simply "commitment phobic". I have read lots of articles about it.......and it was proven in my last case. This one to be proven yet, but I suspect so. So anyway.........................buck up pathetic wimps and do the right things!!! I am fed up that is all I can say!!! Good luck to all of you who have had this done to you in the past as well. | |

| Has anyone ever been dumped via email? Posted: 11/28/2006 3:12:22 PM | I have a few standards in dating, and a big one is respect. If you don't respect the person enough to tell them in person, then you don't deserve to have a "real" relationship of any kind. Another little thing is called maturity, and many people do not have that either. In my age range 35-45, one would hope to find either quality, however all too often I find neither which just tells a sad story for everyone.
Since everyone has email nowdays they think they can bypass, respect, maturity, and honor which are just decent human traits which somehow don't mean anything to alot of women nowdays. The only thing worse than an email, is a text message saying, "I feel no spark for u, good luck"
Women are just as chickenshit, when it comes to doing the right thing. The old phrase act your age, not your shoe size comes to mind. When dealing with the game players who say they don't like games, but tend to play more games altogether.
Word of advice for the game playing women, never expect to find a good guy until you quit playing the games, and grow up. Go away, we men don't want you, don't need you, and frankly don't even care. | |

| Has anyone ever been dumped via email? Posted: 11/28/2006 8:07:44 PM | Hey
I completely understand your confusion and anger......I had been with this guy for 3 years and on my 20th birthday he sends me a singing telegram to dump me.....he thought it would lighten the situation.....honestly dont bother his too weak and too much of a coward to show his face.....he needs a screen to help avoid the situation.
there are better things to do then waste time with people like that | |

| Has anyone ever been dumped via email? Posted: 11/28/2006 9:35:32 PM | | I wouldn't exactly say we broke up by email...it was more our last conversation was by email, and he made his point loud and clear he didn't want to pursue anything with me. | |
