| | Have you ever been broken up with via e-mail?Page 1 of 2 (1, 2) | I was until VERY recently in a long ditance realtionship. Last night I get an e-mail saying that he is so sorry but the long distance sh*t is killing him & that it just won't work out.
I understand & it sucks but I accept the break up. What I don't understand is why he couldn't given me the decency of a phone call!

OT: Yes, I have "broken up" with someone via email. Big deal. At least I had the guts to tell him and didn't just avoid him until he got the hint. | |

Posted: 8/16/2005 10:18:55 AM | | puppymama... The only reason I can see to do it by email is if the other person is a nut. And if you know the personality of this person to be one that will go off like the Fourth Of July and has personal problems in their life then email to me would be the only way to go. Eho likes confrontation and argueing anyway? | |

Posted: 8/16/2005 2:49:27 PM | I once got an email that just said, instead of sending you an email explaining why, this is just to say it's over. I guess it was breaking up by email, only it lacked the actual email. And it wasn't exactly breaking up, either. It was sort of more like a notice of the lack of an announcement to the ending of something I didn't know about.
I once called off a fledgling relationship by email. We had been on maybe three dates and then she sent me a fairly hostile email. It had to do with how she took something I said, which she totally misunderstood. But in how she reacted I could see a painful future stretching ahead, so I just wrote back and said I didn't want to see her anymore. It seemed the right approach given her email. She was the kind that shoots first and asks questions later. | |

Posted: 8/16/2005 3:00:56 PM | | It happened to me one time. I went to go visit friends who just got back from out of town. I went alone partly because I wanted to ask their advice about what I should do with my b/f he was becoming smothering, etc. I wanted to try to not hurt his feelings but was thinking about how to go about the dreadful deed. We discussed it that evening. Next am checked email quickly before heading off for work. Seems he was so upset, he stayed home got SHYT faced drunk and wrote me this looonnnnggg email at 3 am. Breaking up with me. Whew! I laughed, well that took care of itself. Of course there was another sober one following that apologizing. I didn't let him outta that one. Maybe he'll think twice before he does something that stupid. Even though it was seriously a relief for me, I still don't think that was appropriate behavior, so I let him suffer with the consequences of his own stupid (HIS word) behavior. | |

Posted: 8/16/2005 5:21:11 PM | That's rough!
I had this one **** break up with me the day after Valentine's Day. We had known each other for years, been best-friends, etc.
She had cancelled our Valentine's Day plans. That really sucked, as one of my 'special friends' had dropped by. We had stopped while my other relationship was on, though we remained friends. If I had known I was going to be single the next day, I would be married to the other person now!
There were two paragraphs, then 'I think we should end the relationship for now. I hope we can remain friends, though.' Then a couple more paragraphs.
History is 20/20 hindsight. I was upset then. However, I'm extremely satisified the relationship ended. I wouldn't have been able to accomplish anything meaningful by staying with her. | |

Posted: 8/17/2005 1:05:05 AM | Puppy - he took the cowards way out. I agree, you should've phoned you. My ex BF broke up with me (after 5 months of dating - seeing each other almost daily) via email. Three days later, he came to my house and apologized to me for the BU via email. I told him that "I did deserve better than that, but I forgive you". We are still friends but don't date.
I think if you break up with someone do it in person or worst case scenario (if distance is involved) over the phone, it will tell the other person you are of good character. | |

Posted: 8/17/2005 11:41:28 AM | | A guy who doesn't have the decency to break up with you to your face is a classless jerk, no it hasn't happened to me, but I have been dumped via telephone, which is pretty bad too, the guy was local. If you're gonna dump someone at least have the class to try to do it face to face! | |

Posted: 8/17/2005 11:50:04 AM | I was in a very strong friendship (long distance), bordering on something more. I talked to him about Christmas and that I was sending him a present in the mail. Everything's great, but then the next day I get an email that starts out:
As per your request, (that he told me if he found someone else) I have found someone new. She is pretty and smart, and I've known her for a long time. She fits into my life, but mostly, she is HERE. I hope things go well for you.
...................................................................
Hit the wall head first, and then a crash. He could have said something to me on the phone before I sent a present. Amazingly I didnt have him killed.  | |
