Share Your Story: My First Breakup

From shaquiqui shananay

How Long Had You Been Dating Before the Breakup?

2 and a half months

Who Broke Up with Whom?

I dumped him

How Did the Breakup Go Down?

I was dating this guy who I just felt wasn't right for me. I was at lunch when I decided to do it. I went up to him when he was sitting with his friends and said, "can we talk?" He's all, "about what?" and I said, "I just want to be friends, I'm sorry." He didn't say anything. I saw his smile turn into a frown and he sat back down and put his thumb up at me. I said his name a few times and he ignored me. He finally answered "what!?" in a harsh half way yelling tone. I said, "We're still friends, right?" He said "no." I said "why?" and he only said, "becuz," and I walked away crying my eyes out. idk why.

How Did You Get Over the Breakup?

I felt bad for doing it but I still didn't want to date him. He cussed me out on myspace and our friendship from there went on and off. Now we r friends and he still likes me and has been asking me out. idk what to do.

Lessons Learned

  • He once said to my friend who cried over our other friend who she dated and he dumped her. She was crying and I was hugging her and he said, "no guy is worth crying over." I cried over him after I dumped him and so I guess he proved his statement.
