What does he mean by what? The "something else" he said? Hard to answer that without key information -- you know, like, what the hell he actually said?
But that's irrelevant. Why are you breaking up with him over e-mail? Not cool. No wonder he didn't reply to it. I wouldn't, either. What, the telegraph office was closed?
E-mail's great for "How's your day?" and "Can you pick up some Febreze on the way home?", but not so great for "I don't love you anymore" or "I'm pregnant and it's not yours." Unless you live far apart, important news needs to be given face to face. If it's a distance relationship and face-to-face isn't possible, a phone call is better than an e-mail, and Skype is better than a regular phone call.
Yeah, I know, it's harder that way, but too bad. It's a respect thing. You're delivering news that will have a negative emotional impact on the receiver. You can lessen the blow and show that you give a damn about his feelings by doing it in person (or as close to in-person as you can get.)
Think about it. Would you like to get dumped via e-mail? Or fired? Or told that a family member had passed away? Or that "Jersey Shore" got cancelled?
Now you get to break up with him again. Do it in person this time. No pigeons. No skywriting. No messages in bottles. Grow a pair and do the right thing.
i hope that after 3 months together, my partner would have the courtesy to at least call and tell me things are over. That is common decency. Maybe he's trying to save face, or doesnt want things to be over. Why dont you email him back and find out?
yes you're right...he really doesnt wanna end things yet..well not the most decent thing you'd do to someone... Thanks guys!
OMG thank you so much Cary! That's why i heart you lots! Just to clear the first phrases, we were supposed to talk things out the prev night, but he was MIA & wasn't online, we're in this long distance r'ship. So i told him over email how i waited for hours for him and did the breaking up in the process. So when he replied me he just told me he was online and he left me offline messages. This was his response and said nothing abt breaking up. I was breaking up wit him bcos he did something really douchey. So to rephrase my question, i don't get why he didn't reposnd to that break-up thing. Nevertheless Cary, you're amazeballs!!! keep it up!
please don't use 'amazeballs'. thanks.

OMG thank u so much Cary! This is why i heart you lots! Been waiting for you to answer this for ages... We're in a long distance r'ship and he really did something douchey to me so i tried to break up wit him by sending that long ass email. We were supposed to patch things up the prev night be he was MIA online and it made me furious. The only response that i got from that email was telling me he was online and actually sent me offline messages. And he didn't respond to the break-up thing. anyhoo, Cary you're amazeballs, keep it up!
amazeballs
I broke up with my bf via email. I tried calling him but he didn't pick up. I actually think he sent me to voice mail and did not return my call. It's long distance and there is only so much I can do to try to reach him.
