Before I get into the comments, I'm going to tell you guys that I'm always better at making decisions after I've had a good sleep. This is why I prefer holding off on doing things until I've had some time to let it sit in my brain. This morning, I woke up with the reasons to get rid of her and how I'm going to do it.
The Reasons: I had told her that my most successful relationship was with a woman who had NO male orbiters. Her and I had mutual respect for each other
because neither of us had to worry about disrespect with regards to the opposite sex. I told her that every other failed relationship was due to things happening with regards to the opposite sex. Her reasons to continue being disrespectful towards me were "I'm not any of your exes", "That's just the way I am", and "I'm not giving up my (male) friends for anybody". She is incorrect about not being any of my exes. She embodies most of them, and in some ways she's WORSE than them. A woman who feels the need to continue to behave this way and is insisting that it's perfectly reasonable to make me feel like 5hit (and I should just swallow the 5hit and call it ice cream) is not right for me. This relationship will never succeed.
The Method: I'll be sending her a lengthy message via Facebook. I've been with her for a total of 8 months, so she at least deserves to know why I'm ending it. I've always insisted on breaking up through the easiest, most convenient means possible. A lengthy message does not give her any chance to interrupt, and gives me the opportunity to get ALL my thoughts across. I will likely send it to her tomorrow. I have a meeting this evening with a friend who is providing me information that is essential for my plan of being debt-free by age 45. This carries more priority than writing a break up message to my soon-to-be ex-girlfriend.
And now, your comments...
Tell her you want to see other people and have an open relationship. She'll either dump you, or more likely I think, pretend to dump you and then later throw herself at you on occasion, not caring if you have been with anyone else. It's a win-win.
That's an interesting angle, but I'm more interested in cutting her off completely. The reason for this is that I may have to interact with her in the future, and I
will have to interact with her friends and co-workers in the future all because of my field of work. I don't need to be tainting my work field with a bunch of drama and rumours. It's better to cut her off completely and keep my respect generally intact.
You seem obsessed over creating some sort of masterfully clever revenge scheme. That thinking only drags you down to her level.
I'm not sure where you got this from. I generally don't feel the need to get revenge on my ex-girlfriends. In a few years, I'm going to be debt-free and in a nice house. Living well is generally the best revenge. All she's done is become a product of our female-empowered society. That is not her fault. Her unwillingness to make changes and behave in a respectful manner in an exclusive relationship
is her fault, but that only warrants a break-up.
That's rather easy in execution. Just disappear from her life as if you've never existed. Go ghost and enjoy life to the fullest..... without her.
Yup, that is what living well is all about.
What I think is funny about this whole thing is her willingness to throw around the M word, but have it only on her terms. If a woman is genuinely interested in having a successful marriage, she should do what is necessary to achieve a successful relationship in order to accomplish this goal. Instead, women have been spoiled by having a marriage on
her terms.
Once I craft my breakup letter, I will post it here for all to see.
