Screw It

If he wanted her to come with him he would have taken her out to a nice romantic dinner, told her about the promotion and move, and asked her. If he had a modicum of class he would have taken her out at least for coffee and told her that unfortunately because he was promoted and is moving the relationship isn't going to work out. Instead he acted like an immature 13 yr old and was too much a coward and too big a *kitten* to act like an adult.

You should text him back and tell him that he should make sure there's a fast food joint in the area he's moving because once his company finds out what an immature *kitten* he is they aren't going to want him either.

well at least you haven't found out on facebook wall that he's broken up with you and in a relationship with someone else like I did. (his age 34)

like my boss and a good friend told me - he doesn't deserve you and you are better off without him. He will call you one day wanting something from you and on that day you will act like you don't know him and walk away

(it always helps to see there are worse scenarios)

Once while on a date, we heard his car alarm going off (and yes, it really was his car) he excused himself to go turn it off and sent me a text saying, "I've changed my mind and I just can't do this". My response was, "I don't have a single word to say to you other than I really hope your car tires aren't flat so you can flee as quickly as possible". Not meaning anything threatening by it but I didn't want him to have to come back inside for ANY reason whatsoever.

The guy who did that to you is an *kitten* and you are better off letting it go. If you need to, tell a friend what happened and send her your response text to get it off your chest. He's an *kitten*. Did I say he's an *kitten*?

What!?! Someone so afraid of confrontation that they take the easiest way out to end a relationship? Or so selfish that they figure over is over and it's okay to just explain and leave? Or so self-centered that they figure there's no point in personally communicating or discussing decision because theirs is the only life affected. Nope - none of those things have ever happened :-)

don't give up on dating, just give up on dating losers

Damn. Worse than a post it note

Thanks for reminding me why I am not dating yet:flowerforyou:

I'm so sorry this happened to you. People suck.

I feel you there. I'm not sure which is worse, text message breakups or the whole "I'm just going to ignore you for so long that I can convince myself we 'grew apart'" thing. I had someone pull the latter on me a couple months ago. I'm still in awe of how douchetastic some people can be!

My brother actually had BOTH these things done to him by the same woman. First she stopped returning his calls and completely cut him off for no reason after a few months of dating. Then when they'd reconnected a year later, she dumped him by text message. And then, months later, she came back around again and he jumped right into a serious relationship with her a THIRD time!! Needless to say it didn't end well that time either, but at that point I say he deserved what he got. Why are people so stupid when it comes to relationships??
