Getting Ditched By...

  • OSH
    Has anyone ever been ditched by text, email, twitter, facebook, or anything other than face-to-face/phone?

    I know it's FOXNews, but it's amazing at a billionaire dumping his wife on twitter.

    I think even by phone is shady. Do that shit in person.

    Oh yeah. No doubt. email, text. Its not so bad actually. Rather be dumped that way than face to face.

    Nope

    I've heard of it happening via text, but that's extremely juvenile.

    I forgot to include my singular incident.

    I got dumped by an email once. That's about it. My good buddy got dumped by text...he was pretty embarrassed it happened that way, but not all that upset.

    But I agree, do it face-to-face. I guess phone may be alright if the couple were separated by hours/states.

    I think in high school I was. I kind of agree with thavoice. If I'm gonna be dumped I'd rather have it done that way so I can deal with it alone. But I know girls are different so I would make a point to do in person.

    No but I did break up with a girlfriend in high school through text. I don't regret it, she was a psycho. If I were to do it in person she would have probably thrown a tantrum, screaming and yelling.

    The girlfriend I had during college dumped me via MySpace status and private message (after I confronted her about cheating on me; I was planning on breaking up with her in person, but I guess she beat me to it).

    Never done, but had it done to me once (phone). Granted, she was in Chicago and me in Bloomington, IN. I actually think I would prefer it over the phone, Im not trying to go out and see you to have you dump me.

    My wife dumped me over the phone back when I was still in college and she was working in VA. We got back together, obviously.

    She knew you were on the cusp of such greatness such as running the OC

    Actually, I broke up with two women via phone, but it was because I was in Indiana, and they were in Ohio.

    Agreed it takes a certain coward to not do that face to face, other than being in a long distance relationship I guess. Then its dumb because it costs so much to get there. For example, my good friend's sister was dating a guy who was living in Italy at the time (lol at that). She goes out to see him and he breaks up with her right after she lands, says he thinks he should be honest ect.. She ended up having to stay and spend time with the guy who just dumped her, awkard as hell. Avoid that.

    Funny you ask. The calls were indeed about five minutes apart.

    I was a different person then.
