    I use the "I faked it" card....

    Vicious. lol

    I know! Follow it up with "and your hotdog is small" and laugh as you walk away... :smokin:

    It's even more funny when it's true. :laugh:

    My reaction was usually none at all unless I asked for their friend's number or something. Who wants to bother with someone who doesn't want them. There are too many fish in the sea.

    I've never been dumped. However, twice now I've gotten the "I'm not ready for a relationship, but can we still casually date?" Umm...like I don't know what that really means! Oh and the first guy that told me this I just said "Oh that's okay...I've been casually dating you the whole time."

    Used this the times I was dumped, said in a sarcastic way: "well, nice meeting you, now you can leave"

    As a poster said before me, life goes on.

    I'm married now and usually was the dumper, but I was dumped twice when I was dating. Both times I was pretty cool about it. I didn't get upset or anything. I just said ok. Both times I think they expected more of a reaction, but I don't really see getting dumped as rejection. I mean, the other person thought I was attractive, smart and fun enough to hang around with for a while. If they found out it wasn't going to work quicker than I did, then that's good. At least we weren't wasting time on something that wasn't going to work in the end anyhow.

    I never said, go up! Okay? I just said, lightly around. It's like a...like a little button. You know what? Not your issue anymore.

    ^ not me, but best response to a break up ever.

    The last time I was dumped, I was about 15 years old, so I cried... then scratched his face out of my yearbook. Yep, I was THAT girl lol
    I wasn't with anyone long enough to be dumped from then till I was 17 when I started dating my now husband..

    I've only been dumped once, and it was BRUUUUUUUUTAL. I chased the man around the house trying to claw his face off. Hey, the guy was cheating on me with my best friend and I'd just birthed our second son... so sue me.

    Since then, I meet dumpage with a fierce helping of "Good riddance."

    "that's fine" :happy:

    but when my fiance and I first started dating, we broke up about a month and a half in...I said "that's fine" and then promptly went home and bawled my fool face off. The break up lasted 24 hours, 5 years later we're still going strong. I knew that he was someone special because I CRIED?!?!?! I never cried when i got dumped, i just moved on.

    I don't have a verbal response. I cycle women like I cycle calories.
