The first girl I ever dated broke up with me after I spent three months dating, two years persuing, and one hundred dollars on a class ring she could wear. It was sad really. I thought it was going great, so of coarse when went to her house to pick her up and found out we weren't "going anywhere" ... let's just say I didn't see it coming. I did what every man (of 16) does in that situation. I got out of there as quick as I could with commits like "if that is how you feel..." and "no big deal..." "...still be close friends..." so that I could cry in my car on the way home.
Lately, my wife and I have been trying to console kids that we mentor through their respective drama. It is just surprising how stupid and insignificant high school romance seems, but on the other hand... kids these days cut themselves, develop eating disorders, and commit suicide because they can't see past it. Anyway it got my wife and I thinking about previous break ups and I was curious if anyone had any good stories they want to share. Some of mine include...
1. Breaking up with me the day after an "appreciation dinner" for the guys.
2. I broke up with a girl and she thought it was because she didn't know who Weezer was.
3. I broke up with a girl, then tried to get back with her, then wrote her nasty e-mail then....
4. I told a girl she needed to decide if she was serious about the relationship or not. I then broke up with her a few days later before she could tell me that she decided to be serious.
As you can tell I'm not very good at this...
