Best Breakup?

greyfox5 · June 2003

For you who have had many boyfriends/ or girlfriends, how did you break up with them? Was it funny, tragic, heatless? Ive broken up with 2 girlfriends, those were money leachers.

It was pretty recent, anyways, I sent them this letter.

02. Don't Stay 03:07
Sometimes I
Need to remember just to breathe
Sometimes I
Need you to stay away from me
Sometimes I'm
In disbelief I didn't know
Somehow I
Need you to go

Sometimes I
Feel like I trusted you too well
Sometimes I
Just feel like screaming at myself
Somestimes I'm
In Disbelief I didn't know
Somehow I
Need to be alone

Don't stay
Forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
What you were changing me into
[Just give me myself back and]
Don't stay
Forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
Take all your faithlessness with you
[Just give me myself back and]
Don't Stay

I don't need you anymore
I don't want to be ignored
I don't need one more day
Of you wasting me away

With no apologies

That is Dont Stay my Linkin Park: Meteora
They both called me, and started to cry and said they would change...since I am a cold heatless bastage...I said no. I am now steady with an awsome readhead named Lisa Garand...she sorta looks like Asuka from Evangelion <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

I've had several break ups, but most of them were crap. The only one that was any good was with one chick, who shall be called "J".

We spent a semi-awkward morning together with very little to say really, (we were both working out how to dump the other, after all..) Anyway, perhaps due to the background awkwardness we both opted to finish off a large bag of marry-hoo-anna ( not big or cool, don't do it kids..) and basically ended up so wasted that we sorta forgot the tension and realised we get on pretty well as friends.

Short version: We strolled off to town giggling, and agreeing to never, ever go out again, but to remain mates. Worked fine, if I see the girl tomorrow, I'll buy her a beer.

She's pretty cool.

Usually ends in horrible vengeful disaster though....

CForrester · June 2003

I've had 2 breakups. My first was terrible. This girl broke my heart. One day, she just told me she was leaving me because she said she found someone better. Then he broke up with her 3 months later. Haha. Her fault. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'> I've since gotten over her, and we're friends, but I've never forgiven her for what she did to me. My other one was with a girl I was with for 2 years. After a particularly nasty fight, I'd realized that she wasn't the girl I fell in love with, and that all she did was cause me pain. I broke up with her pretty nastily, because I was feeling vengeful. I just ignored her, and when she threatened to stalk me, etc... I just threatened her with a restraining order and a police report, and she SUYF pretty fast. Now I'm with a wonderful girl, too. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

I've only been through one breakup, and it was kinda simple. We were walking along one day, and she just kinda turned to me and said that she would rather we be freinds. Of course that sent me inot a month long spiral of depression, but that's a different story, and we're still good freinds.

CrouchingHamster · June 2003

Oooooh, the "Let's just be friends.." sucks ****. I'd rather be kicked square in the nuts than hear that one again.

dr_d · June 2003

This is always my answer to "let's juts be friends"

"Can we still have sex?"

her reply "No"

"Oh then no thanks"

BadKarma · June 2003

It's pretty heartlees for myself but hell, im like 15, no reason to get worked up over it.

I double that. Even better version is to get a text message or e-mail and when you call her she won't answer and you never actually know what the hell went wrong.

Oh yes. SuXx0rZ.

Edit: When I want to brake up I'm kind of coward. I usually behave lamely and don't keep very dense contact like "Naa, not now. I don't want to. I'm too tired" and then finally the chick gets the drift that I'm not really into our relationship and then she breaks up with me. So I never break up with anybody, I just wait for them to break up with me so no one can ever blame me for anything <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>

Speed_2_Dave · June 2003

I can say I've had 2 amicable seperations. One was with the most incredible girl in the world, but lives on the wrong side of "the lake". The other was a nice girl who I just really didn't have any emotional attachment to, but she was getting really attached to me, so I had to break her heart then, instead of crushing it later. I keep in touch with both of them. As for other ex'es.. Yeah, no, not pretty.

Now I'm dating this beautiful brazilian model who came up here to care for a sick uncle... NOT. I'm single, and enjoying life <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

i'm about 16.5 right now. so i can't say i've had very many actual relationships so far.

my only "real" relationship (i guess i'll use the word "real" for now) was with a chick i'll call MG. reminds me of machineguns. anyway, we initially got on ok, but the relationship was kinda thin. more physically experimental. we're f*ckin 16, right? anyway, about a month in, things are getting really f*ckin thin, so i ask her

what are we doing?

and of course she has no real answer... and because we weren't really doing anything meaningful at all, we just split.

it's unfortunate that most of the girls my age (maybe just in my area, near SF) are superficial, and transparent, at the same time. no substance. they flirt and act like they need a "real" relationship with a "real" guy. well i've got substance, but apparently, it actually <i>DOESN'T</i> matter who they're going out with, because it doesn't mean <i>anything</i>.

it's a sad, sad story.

lolfighter · June 2003

You'll notice people start becoming more "distinct" once they know which way they're going. I.e. past the twenty-year mark. I know that's a long wait, but that's the way things are. Don't worry though, there's still lots of time. *pats Jin-Roh on the back*

Chopper_Dave1 · June 2003

Still hold that my best break-up was with a girl I met a few days before the end of camp my Sophomore year. We just made out for the last few days and left on GOOD TERMS, talked to each other on the internet, then lost touch. You don't know how fantastic that is, to know you'll probably never see a person again but if you did she wouldn't hesitate to get romantic. And you don't remember them as evil snake-like creatures, as usualy happens in a break-up, but instead remember in their best light (cause it's all you really know).

...and the rest of my life has been an endless string of Prom Stand-ups, ditching-me-for-my-best-friend mishaps, and downright nasty door-slamming affairs. So I've made up for that one nice occasion in spades, trust me.

Hawkeye · June 2003

I've had 2 previous breakups before. I currently have a girlfriend, and God help me, I couldn't break up with her if I wanted to.
I mean the ones before, they were damn nice for getting some, but well this last girlfriend.. I don't know what it is. Something is much different this time around. First time I've really fallen in love I think.

Would you believe it? I've found the one I'm going to marry. It's a little scary when I think of it.
How do you know when you've found the one you're going to marry? You can't bring yourself to break up with her (and not out of guilt).

I make it sound a little cynical, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

Speed_2_Dave · June 2003

Finding the one you want to marry at too young an age is scary, but it happens. Just make sure you don't blow it, and that you're sure it's not something else that is making the relationship so special.

Chopper Dave-I know what you mean. Seems like for every GOD-Awful relationship, I've had 1/2 a decent one.

Sycophant · June 2003

Oh, my breakups are classic. Of course, they're also something I'd never want to repeat. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'>

Most recent one was the typical "I think we should just be friends" line. 'Course, she was also able to master the art of the "glare" almost overnight. We actually work together, and strangely enough, whenever I end up walking close enough to accidentally overhear even a whisper of what she's talking about with someone else, she immediately stops talking and glares at me until I leave. Weird.

The next most recent one is, again, the "let's be friends" line. In this case, we're actually still friends (with occasional benefits <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>).

Aaand the one prior to that, she cheated on me. Very badly. In this case, we were going to college together. Oddly enough, she spread rumors that the breakup was because of something very bad and unfriendly that I did. Unfortunately for her, the crowd we were usually hanging out with were much better friends with me than they were with her, and they eventually shunned her completely because they knew the truth.

See? Breakups can be fun! <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

You, sir, have hit the nail on the cranium. What's worse is that so many people consider having "relationships" to be a symbol of social status, despite the fact that most of the people with insane, "pimped-out" "relationships" are either ridiculously moronic or hopelessly depressed.

Hehe totally, cause you know they're expecting you to say "OK'

ok here's a slightly less serious response to "let's be friends" warning this can lead to jail time.

your now ex says "Let's just be friends"

you say "That's ok I met someone new anyway"

she says "Really who"

then you **** slap her with your right hand (left if your left handed <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'> )

and say "She wanted to say hello"

particularly if more is exchanged in your direction than in hers

i dont actually have any girlfriends, just a few friends who are girls

i was too much of an annoying little twit when i was younger for any of the girls to even consider it now.

still, it was fun

i think i'll wait until university
