I understand that it might have been time to take a break after 3 years and maybe I wasn’t always the best Boyfriend, but breaking my heart on New Year’s Eve before I have to go to work in morning and when we have plans to go to YOUR friends that night is pretty fucking poor form (not my friends, not our friends, YOUR friends that I was going to for your sake). Saying you were stringing me along for 8 months was pretty spot on as well. You couldn’t have made it 7 months and saved me the most pathetic New Year’s Eve ever? Would it have broken your New Year’s resolution to have waited another day or two? DAMNIT! —Dumped on New Year’s

maybe he wanted to give you a jolt so you would leave him alone…the best way to dump a girlfriend is to be blunt as many women cannot get a simple hint,they need it dramatically told to them and doing it on new years is the perfect way….betchca you’ll remember that date,huh….
mentor, it was the guy who got dumped.
This is a tough call….I just had a conversation last night about “holding out till after the holidays” and my bf was saying if your not happy then never hold out….but when they end things with the person they always say they’ve been holding out for months…stringing along….maybe the holidays gives ppl courage…or maybe they just don’t want another holiday ruined by the person their with?….I dunno. Either way it sucks.
i feel for you o.p., but life has to go on. fuck the asshole bitch, their day will come, and we can only hope that it will be a big fucking deal to them. don’t waste your time on remorse, because people like this aren’t worth it.
That one was definitely planned: girl waits for Christmas, gets gifts from guy, dumps guy.
Well sebastian, might as well take him for all she can, since she’s leaving ~;)
People who wait to break up with someone are awful. How you could possibly be with someone you don’t like/love anymore and pretty much lie to them every day is disgusting, not to mention a huge waste of time. I broke up with someone the day after their father’s funeral. I thought of waiting it out until they started to feel better but I just couldn’t stand this person for a second longer and didn’t see the benefit of pretending to love them for either side. I have been ‘strung’ along by a couple boyfriends after that and the feeling is just horrible to think that they continued to say “I love you” when you thought they meant it. I guess you can always tell when it’s ending anyway but when you’re a paranoid person to begin with, you just tell yourself you’re just being paranoid :P. Ahhh I’m just glad to have a lovely boy as of now :).
Fuck one of her friends. That will teach her.
