So....I got Dumped Today....

[PrincessDijon]

Well, another one of life''s firsts for me...I got dumped...Via text message nonetheless and it was our 2 month today! What a fantastic day! UGH!

 

[sunnyd]

Oh jeez, what is he, a Jonas brother?!?!

Sorry to hear that PD, that just blows.

 

[tlh]

what a turd. Oh well... too bad he''s gonna hate seeing you out with the next guy- who''s waaaay hotter!

 

[Steel]

What a twit, perhaps he was out of post-it's?

Seriously though, are you ok?

 

[Bia]

This infuriates me!

How do you dump someone via text message?!

Sorry PD

 

[PrincessDijon]

Well, he had the maturity level of a Jonas Brother...I noticed a series of events in the last week or so that led up to this...

When his parents were in town he didn''t want me to meet them (or meet my mom),he stopped texting me regularly or making time to see me.

Finally I let the day go today to see if he''d "remember" that it was our dating anniversary. By 5 p.m. I saw nothing so, I texted him asking him if he even wanted to be in a relationship with me anymore. He then replied with the "Actually I was gonna tell you....." text.

So I had to coerce it out of him. What a you-know-what...ugh! He was too scared to break it off with me so he basically ignored me until I said something. I hate guys like that! Oh well...its better off that we arent dating anymore anyways. I barely saw him anyway!

 

[Steel]

Sounds to me like there is no love lost?

What was that kids rhyme...something like; "see ya, wouldn''t want to be ya?" I think it is appropriate here!

 

[decodelighted]

I''m sorry that happened PrincessDijon. I am curious though. You "signed on" to the LIW list after less than a month w/a guy you "never saw"? Stranger things can happen than love at first sight or whatnot but maybe next time you can save your heart a little bit by taking things more slowly & really getting to know the person BEHIND the person you "meet" ... yanno? We all learn stuff from going through the trenches. I hope the next guy makes up for this one! And maybe carries a pager or something instead. Yes, I hope he''s from 1992. LOL! Hang in!

 

[AustenNut]

Sorry that your ex hasn''t yet learned the basics of dating etiquette (including the break-up). But at least it leaves you available for a wonderful new guy!

 

[lilyfoot]

Eek sorry

That was quite immature of him. On to the next one! lol

I''m just wondering, do you always celebrate monthly dating anniversaries?

 

[Italiahaircolor]

He really did do you a favor!

 

[cindygenit]

It sucks that you got dumped, but you''re better off without him!

Move on, he''s not worth being angry about.

Well I''m going to echo Deco (hey, that rhymed) and also say I''m not too worried about you. If your life crumbles after a 2 month relationship, you''re not made out of very tough stuff. And I''m going to assume you are made of tougher stuff than that.

Just my two cents...women who expect men to remember their TWO month DATING anniversary are setting themselves up for heartbreak. Generally, men just don''t care, and I don''t blame them. Two months? That''s a milestone these days?

You "tested" him to see if he''d remember your relationship, and when he didn''t remember (or didn''t care to remember), you text him a question asking him about your relationship status. Really...why are women surprised she got a break up via text if it''s OK to ask questions about relationship status via text? What is good for the goose is good for the gander.

 

[Luckyeshe]

Hopefully the next guy will be better than the last. Good luck to you!

 

[misskitty]

Ew. I''m going to second tlh and say that he sounds like a major turd. Sorry you got dumped in such a lame way, but it does seem like you''re better off now.

 

[bee*]

Sorry to hear about getting dumped-it''s never a nice thing to experience. I agree with Deco and TGal-take it easy in a new relationship and go slow.

 

[Winks_Elf]

Sorry hun.

I''m sorry but I''m not surprised he was too scared to break it off with you. You''ve only been seeing him for 2 months but you expect him to introduce you to his parents and you text him about the status of your relationship because he forgets your 2 month anniversary!! Then you say you barely saw him anyway! Am I missing something????

 

[oddoneout]

What a loser. Oh well at least you''re better off without him.

 

[dragonfly411]

Princess - I''m sorry to hear that, but you''ll find someone better

 

[Thomperchik]

I''m sorry to hear that. Men have a way of doing stupid things. I did wanted to tell you though, sometimes when you get out of a relationship you rush to something else to replace what you had. Don''t do that. Just let love happen and it''ll come to you! Good luck!

 

[winelover23]

What a tool! Sorry hon, your prince charming still awaits!

Yep...keep on looking!

 

[princessplease]

I''m sorry

Big hugs.

What a coward to do it via txt, though.

 

[Nomsdeplume]

Via text? What is he, 13?
I''m sorry to hear it. Sounds like you are better off though.

 

[Laila619]

Good riddance! You are way better off, and are free to meet Mr. Right now.

The right guy would never do that to you. Hugs!

 

[Tuckins1]

What a butt.
Sorry, hun.

 

[wsu12]

I was dumped via text message as well...by a loser who I was casually dating for about 2-3 months. I wasn''t really upset, I was angry because I knew all along that this individual was not serious about me and that I needed to move on a long time ago.

Shrug it off, go get a pedicure and martini''s with your girlfriends and laugh about this loser....

 

[Princess_Dreamer]

So sorry to hear that PD! But it seems life has handed you some lemons, so you can now make lemonade! You''ll meet The One eventually

And as a side note...personally I thought some of the comments left on this thread were pretty harsh. Every relationship is different and if she wants to celebrate a 2 month anniversary, who are we to tell her its ridiculous? If thats important to her, then she will find a guy who its important to also. And just because she added herself to the LIW list soon after beginning the relationship, doesn''t mean it was TOO soon. Time lines are different for everyone. My cousin got engaged after 4 weeks of dating! So, for a girl that just got dumped in a lame-o way, I think its quite rude for some of the posts to criticize the way she went about her relationship rather than just being supportive. Just my 2 cents.

Your two cents is fine. My two cents was that most men don''t go gaga for two month anniversaries and women who expect it (and "test" their men) set themselves up for heartbreak, which I think is a fair statement.

And yes, it was too soon, in this case, to put herself on the LIW list. As evidenced by the fact that she obviously didn''t know the guy well enough to know he''s the type to be a dumba** and dump her via text.
