I was having lunch with a friend and somehow we got on this topic.. thought it would be a fun thread on here. Can be a reason for ending any type of relationship.


For me, I had the biggest crush on this one guy for a while. Being shy, I didn't want to go up to him out of fear of rejection. Then I started working out and losing weight and was starting to build up my confidence. A few months pass and I run into him at a party. We talk and hit it off and start going out.. after 6 weeks or so I noticed he was calling less and we were not going out as much. During this time I had kept up with working out and was losing more and more weight. We were talking one night and I just flat out asked, "What's going on.. seems like we're seeing less of each other and just not connecting as much". His response.. "well, I really like you and all, but you are really thin.. I like thicker girls". Needless to say at the time I didn't see the humor in it, but my friends sure did. These days I can laugh about it.

Please.. share yours!

    The weirdest one for me was someone who I had only been seeing casually for a month or so. He knew I was taking classes to up my GMAT score and put some shine on my application for grad school and he was pretty supportive about it, so the day I got my acceptance package I totally freaked and I called him and was so super excited about it. After five or ten minutes of me talking about all the ins and outs of the program I asked him why he was being so quiet and he's like so are you going to say yes because it sounds like this is going to make you really busy and that is really selfish of you. I just kind of sat there and then I started laughing, he was like I'm serious if you don't tell them no then we are done. Seriously though, I just found it funny. I would never jeopardize my future for someone I barely knew. Boys can be so silly, breaking up with girls who are trying to make themselves better people.

    I've nevere been broken up with, but I did break up with a guy on Valentine's day one year, because for the two weeks before that, he kept telling me I was going to, it annoyed me yes, but when I didnt hear from him all of Valentine's day? I called that night and broke up with him... that's the weirdest *I* can think of for brekaing up with someone.

    I had a girl break up with me because I didn't have a college education ( no ambition to better myself, she said ).
    23 years later, I'm married 11 years ( together for 21 ) 2 little boys, house, acreage, more real friends than anyone should be allowed. Oh yeah...I'm an estimator / architect...take that bee-otch!!!!!!

    "My sister doesn't approve of you. She said you're not religious enough."

    He wasn't even someone I was official with. I was "dating" him and 3 weeks into it, he told me that :laugh: I died laughing. The next time I saw his sister, I told her she should ask her uber-Christian brother what we did in her mustang while she sleeping. :smile:

    well the one real relationship i was in, i was the one who broke up with him.

    But in my casual dating, i've never gotten a reason, they just randomly stop calling. I rather get a weird reason like " Your toes are too long." or something, instead of wondering what i did to turn off the guy.

    I had a girl break up with me when she found out I don't have brown hair.

    We had been going out for a couple weeks. She introduce me to one of her best couple friends. When the guy asked her why she departed from her list (She apparently kept a list of traits she wanted in the men she dated. Brown hair was one of them.), she was surprised to find out I had been a blond. He shaved his head and knew to look at the eyebrows.

    I had a guy break up with me because he said he felt bad about using me... but I mean at least he had the courage to tell me he used me, right?

    I believe you... a guy I went out with senior year in college dumped me when his parents finally had a chance to meet me and instantly told him, "You will NOT bring home that black girl...you can go out with her for fun, but that's it."

    It super sucks eh!
    The guy I was dating was living here because hes a college student, and we started dating. Then I realized he was telling everyone I'm his Canadian girlfriend, and that back in his home country, I'm just a friend. ouch.

    'It's not you, it's me."

    Yeah, that was what the first guy I was dating told me.

    I broke up with someone because he wanted a Mommy and not a girlfriend - it was whacky. Afterwards he married a lady 20 years older and now he's happy and we're still friends.

    "I wasn't convenient enough." We had been dating for three weeks. I was a college student who went to school three hours away. Sorry I could only be there on weekends.

    More common than you think... another guy I really liked, but was reserving my heart b/c I already knew his family is bigoted (just wasn't sure how much of a pull they'd be on him) tried to broach the topic of dating a non-white with his folks after we'd been seeing each other about 4 months... did not go well... basically the same sentiment. Good enough for a quickie in the alley, but not good enough to bring home.

    I'm mixed, and I'll date someone from any race. But no matter how much I like the guy, I now refuse to get involved with someone whose family will hate me for my color. Even if he's great. We can just be good friends. A large part of the "white half" of my family still does not like us and I'll not subject my son to that same kind of treatment.

    So, after dating for about 3 weeks, this girl broke up with me because I was too Mexican looking? Really? TOO Mexican looking? What does 'Lite' Mexican looking look like? Just sayin'...

    Odd reason ... he thought another guy and I were hooking up behind his back.

    Only issue? Other guy he fixated on is gay. Very gay.

    I was dating this guy...he thought I "hung the moon" and he "couldn't believe I was single"

    after 5 months or so of dating....

    he started acting a little funny....trying to say he wanted to be just friends, but then begging me for another chance.....
    finally the back and forth was just too much...
    so I said, what gives..

    he put his head down and said....let's face it...."You're Way Too Good For Me".....

    {trippy}

    My favorite one is that "I work to much" this is because I work for a hospital and am on-call every other week so I had to stay close to home those weeks and it just wasnt his style to plan things and I wouldn't put him before work. We had only been dating a couple of weeks.

    "I need to focus on myself"... A month later he had a girlfriend... I'm guessing he was cheating on me, and knew I was catching on, because I would question him a lot of why we weren't talking as much as before...

    well, we werent in a relationship but on the second date she said "I'm not really looking for a serious relationship. Maybe if you had a scottish accent". I'm Indian....

    Also, she ended up getting engaged to an African guy within 2 months who had no where near a scottish accent lol
