here's a handy list for people to use to translate their next breakup.

"I just want to be alone for now"
I don't like you enough to go out with you, and there's somebody else.

"I need Time to think"
I don't like you enough to go out with you, and there's somebody else.

"It's not you, it's me"
I don't like you enough to go out with you, and there's somebody else.

"It's not working out"
I don't like you enough to go out with you, and there's somebody else.

"I'm just not ready for a relationship"
I don't like you enough to go out with you, and there's somebody else.

Let me know if I've missed anything off.

Let me know if I've missed anything off.

"Your amazing cock and masterful love-making are turning me into a nymphomaniac and I can no longer function as a normal human being. I have become a husk, a pitiful creature that feeds only on your wondrous sexual prowess. I must leave you before what scraps of humanity remaining within me vanish forever. I shall never love again."

I hate it when that happens.

She did, she said she didnt know what she wanted anymore...

I still love her.

Been there brother, and it aint a nice situation. My only advice is try and move on. Easier said than done but hanging around on her fb etc isnt gonna make things better. Right now you need gooseberry fool to take your mind off her, go out with friends and do gooseberry fool, preferably without alcohol, go see a movie, go for dinner, whatever. Look at this as a positive reason to go do the gooseberry fool you couldnt do when you were with her, i.e. joining a gym, taking up a new hobby etc, you just gotta keep busy and keep your mind off her, cause NEWSFLASH, moping around thinking about her doesnt help, it only makes things WORSE. Just get on with your life as she obviously isnt worth it, saying shes now in a relationship as 'a joke'?? what a strawberry floating bitch

Thanks geezer...I havent been hanging on her fb, the status changed popped up at the side on the highlights.... I told her yesterday that it was out of order...all she said was it was a joke for a girl at work and never meant to upset me...obviously not thinking ahead then.

And thanks for all the replies...Ive been going out loads...seems I dont have to move bck home which is a good thing. I was thinking of joining the gym tbh cause I weight about 4 stone at the mo.

I just wish there was one of those things from MiB that flash my memeories away, because all my meomories of her are great and this seems so wrong.

My GF dumped me 2 weeks ago. I can't claim I know how your feeling since you were in your relation allot longer. But With mine, we were all fine one day, then in the space of about a week she just changed completely. One moment we were having a great time, the next thing I know it was like she had become a different person, none of the affection she used to show and telling me she dosent want me coming out with her and it then got progressively worse to the point of getting fired. How did I cope? Red Bull, weed and wanking.
Just got the old "Your the best boyfriend ever, and if I wanted a boyfriend at the moment I'd want you, but I just want to be alone for now" Well if I was that good a boyfriend then I should have been a bit harder to dump. Well we havent even so much as texted each other since the incident, I'm not going to crumble. I've already arranged to meet some girls next week.

This happened within the space of about 2 weeks..she became nasty, unloving, erratic, mardy and generlly not nice to be around..I thought it was due to her having no job..no money and was getting her down. She told her sister that she 'finished it' Truth is she never said anything, I asked her if she loved me, she shrugged her shoulders...i asked if she still wanted to be with me....she shrugged her shoulders...pretty childish if you ask me, now she claims she 'finished' it.

[Fatal Exception]

If you only weigh 4 stone you need to get yourself to Mcdonnalds not a gym.

[Glowy69]

Its a joke you knob..as in being depressed, not eating.

[Fatal Exception]

So was me telling you to go to Maccy D's you cheese face.

Sounds gooseberry fool mate, especially as she hasn't given you a reason why she's decided that your relationship is over.

You're probably better off without her tbh.

[Mr Thropwimp]

I don't think you'll ever get a reason. I've had nothing on the same scale at all but with failed relationship startups and what not any 'reason' for a sudden change of attitude suddenly appears a short whlie down the line and almost always by accident.

I don't know how to get out of the rut of anger and sadness that usually follows any such event, though. I can't do it myself; any advice I could come up with would be useless.

[Igor]

It's ironic but the scenario of her wanting to get back with you will most probably occur either when:

a- you act as if you completely couldn't give a strawberry float about what's happened and have no contact with her whatsoever, or

b- you genuinely have lost interest in her.

So to sum up - don't be clingy.

Mike: Okay, so what if I don't want to give up on her?
Rob: You don't call.
Mike: But you said I don't call if I wanted to give up on her.
Rob: Right.
Mike: So I don't call either way?
Rob: Right.
Mike: So what's the difference?
Rob: There is no difference right now. See, Mike, the only difference between giving up and not giving up is if you take her back when she wants to come back. But you can't do anything to make her want to come back. In fact, you can only do stuff to make her not want to come back.
Mike: So the only difference is if I forget about her or just pretend to forget about her?
Rob: Right.
Mike: Well that sucks.
Rob: Yeah, it sucks.
Mike: So it's just like a retroactive decision, then? I mean I could, like, forget about her and then when she comes back make like I just pretended to forget about her?
Rob: Right. Although probably more likely the opposite.
Mike: What do you mean?
Rob: I mean at first you're going to pretend to forget about her, you'll not call her, I don't know, whatever... but then eventually, you really will forget about her.
Mike: Well what if she comes back first?
Rob: Mmmm... see, that's the thing, is somehow they know not to come back until you really forget.
Mike: There's the rub.
Rob: There's the rub.

For all the talk about men being bastards, women have quite the ability to tear men apart.

...Truth is she never said anything, I asked her if she loved me, she shrugged her shoulders...i asked if she still wanted to be with me....she shrugged her shoulders...

I've found that if a women can't answer those two simple questions then the only response should be 'well, strawberry float you then'.

I've become quite disillusioned over the last few years. I'm 20 now, and I find it hard to think of good reasons for getting into long term relationships at this stage in life. I met this very nice girl recently and we've been out a few times, and I think it's clear that we both like each other.. But she is only just about to turn 18.. If we get together long term, then no matter what happens there is a 99% chance that the relationship will end in tears at some point in the future.

Why do people put themselves through that?

[Carlos]

Rise above the situation and try to ignore it, no matter how hard that may be. Don't stoop to her level, chebs; you're a top bloke.

You need to grieve properly. Either immerse yourself in work as much as you can and make yorself ridiculously tired, take time off work and lock yourself in at home playing video games and listening to melancholic music or go stay with a close friend for a few days, talk it out with them and you will feel better.

And always remember GR will be here waiting for you when you get back from that place you need to go to.

[Fargo]

They say on average you get your heart broken about 4 times over your lifetime, theres a love interest in my life at the moment which definitly had the capacity for massive heartache. I've never really had a bad breakup but I know enough to realise I don't wanna be there but just try and stay busy, visit friends watch your favourite movies and keep active.

Seems right to me. There is ALWAYS somebody else

[$ilva $hadow]

In that order.

Because Scouting for Girls are so gooseberry fool that they drive you to drink and violence?

?

[Exxy]

Na, I think he actually likes them.

Lol, apparently she has just got back with her ex, evidently "I don't want a boyfriend right now" was referring to a 2 week window. Part of me wishes I was a spiteful gooseberry fool that would ring her up with a torrent of abuse, but It seems like allot of effort. I got played.

My last girlfriend did this i don't want to be in a relationship then left me a few days later on facebook the girl who just dumped you is now in a relationship with a guy who was suppose to be your mate !

[Dblock]

Keep your head up , dress nice, Have a smile on your face, and be fun to be around with.

That way she will remember what was good in you and will be interested but if she comes back crawling to you, I suggest you refuse her and move on.

Trust me a girl like this was never meant for you, if she was she would atleast be heart broken too but she clearly is not.

Don't feel sorry for yourself thats the worst thing to do at the moment. Try to have fun.

[Glowy69]

Thaks chaps...Im trying to move on, every now and then I get a bit sad...and Im sure she is back with her ex who she split up with to be with me 2 years ago....so i dont know who the bigger fool is me...or him for thinking she has changed.

Women are first class wankers sometimes...I too want to just give her a torrent of abuse, but Im hoping the silent treatment will do her head in eventually.
