Is it rly bad?

Is it rly bad 2 break up with sum1 via txt? Like seriously everytime i try an do it face 2 face i just cant bring myself to say it

[FlyingJesus]

If you do it by text, PLEASE do it with just "ur dumpt x" because if you send an essay it just makes you look cowardly (because you can't say it irl) whereas the straightforward tiny text makes you look like you simply don't care. You won't win any friends either way but it would be funnier with the short one

[-ry!]

I've done it on msn before lol

[IceNineKills]

I've done it by text before, I was badly hated for doing it but everyone got over it in the end.

[velvet]

bit pathetic, but yeah as tom said do it in a patronising, short text if you're gunna do it via text lol
hope you don't want to be friends with them afterwards 'cause that won't be happening any time soon

[Gibs960]

Do it, but if you do make it funny xD

[dbgtz]

I'd only think it was bad if it got serious before you wanting to dump them.

[luce]

if it's not serious then do it but i would never do it or never want it done to me at this age.

[-ry!]

I would just break out a huge argument with him so you do it there and then

[beth]

why not, sure to be jokes.

[Jake]

Jesus, there are a lot of unfeeling people here.


Would you like to be dumped by text? Think about it, it would be really humiliating. Say it to them in person. If you don't have the guts to do that then good luck succeeding in life because you'll need it.

Well no but there are lots of things I'd do that I wouldn't like done to me

if i'm gonna be dumped, i'd rather they did it instantly than string me on til they next saw me. whether it's written or spoken, a word is just a word.

[Sian]

to be honest I hate the dumping conversation. If someone was dumping me I couldn't stand being in the same room with them whilst they do it. Though if it had been a serious relationship I'd try my best to do it face to face.

Surely if they are your boyfriend/girlfriend anyway, it's hardly going to be a long time before they next see you. There are meanings behind words so a word is not just simply a word.

the meaning behind a word is not gonna change just because someone is standing infront of me as opposed to texting me. actually, no it would because people are less likely to be truthful when they're faced with you head on.

[Jessicrawrr]

wouldn't like to be dumped face to face, it'd be really humiliating, I wouldn't like to do it to someones face either, unless it got really serious.

[Narnat,]

I wouldn't say it's initially bad but tbh it seems like a very petty way to break up with someone.

[brandon]

Yeah breaking up over text is a pretty cowardly thing to do.. dignified people break up over voice mail

[Charlottay!]

You owe it to the relationship if it was serious to talk face to face. If it was a small bit of fun that you both are aware of them its not as bad.

[Chris]

If it was me I wouldn't have done it over text, I would have done it face to face.

broke up with my boyfriend of almost 3 years today via text. though it is kinda different, as it was more of a conversation/mutual thing rather than a "YR DUMPED" text and we are at seperate ends of the country atm so a visit ain't really on the cards.

I was getting ready to tell you how much of an atrocity I thought that was until I read the part about being at separate ends of the country :P

ha! i'm not back at that end of the country for another month, and i don't think stringing it out is fair on him or me.

[Alexx..]

If it were me being dumped i'd be gutted, but it's not so dooooo it.
