I don't know what is worse, being dumped by email or being dumped by telephone......I got dumped the day of a big family dinner thing that the b*st*rd invited me to!
here is the story:
My boyfriend emails me on a Tuesday, "If you think you want to and you're ready to, do you want to meet my family this Saturday at a big family dinner?" (and we're not young, I was 30, he was 39, and he is divorced...so to me, meeting one's family MEANS SOMETHING).
So I said sure that would be nice.
I see him during the week, he tells me, "My mother is really looking forward to meeting you".
So I smile and say breezily, "
That is nice to hear. I am looking forward to meeting her as well".
We go out on Friday night, and have a lovely date. He drops me off at the door, hug hug, kiss kiss goodnight.
He confirms, "I will pick you up tomorrow (Saturday) at about 4 pm so that we can drive to the family dinner.
I say, "Sure, sounds good".
I wake up Saturday morning, happy and somewhat excited that I am going to meet his family. I am lying in bed, awake, smiling and thinking to myself, "This could be IT!"
Then the phone rings. It is my boyfriend.
He PHONES me on Saturday morning, the morning of the day of the "meet the family dinner" (not even 9 HOURS after our Friday night date ended) to announce that "It's not going to work out." His ex girlfriend who lives in another city, called him, announced that she was trying to get a job in our city, and that she wanted them to give it another try. And so he said "yes" to her and ended things with me. (And to my knowledge, sources tells me that she never even moved to our city in the end.) Pretty heinous behavior!
Nice huh?
