So, my girlfriend just dumped me. We were not together for that long but I did see this as something potentially long term. She went to her place for the summer and I stayed home where we both live (not together, I mean same city)... Worst part is that we had a trip planned together for later next month, plane tickets already booked. I didn't see any indicators that this would happen, other than her going a bit colder on our IM conversations, and I noticed the subtle change only after the break up when I re-read them.
She ended it by a facebook message (wtf?) the message was apologetic and she knew she was being the "bad guy", but facebook?? She could argue that she was having money problems and couldn't really afford to make a long distance call, but she could have only texted or sent an earlier fb message asking me to call her, she knows I'd have no problem doing that...
I will not go into any more details to not make this post too long but after that message I was not going to go down to that level and continue with a fb break up so I called her and we talked only for a few minutes. I didn't ask for any explanations, and in an effort to not seem butt-hurt or too affected by it, I limited myself to say: "it is very unexpected and sad that it ends like this, don't know what else to say but I'll miss you, and enjoy the rest of your summer, bye"
Now I'll start no contact and it won't be a problem sticking to it, but.. But, did I let her off too easy? even if I know I shouldn't let it bother me, I still think there was a way I could have shown that I'm worth way more than that, and that I hold myself to higher standards.
What's done is done, and as I said, It'll be no contact from now on... But I'd appreciate your opinions regarding what I said on the phone.
regards
