One of my 'early girlfriends' dumped me - on the grounds that she wanted to go out with someone who looked more like the lead singer from Echo & The Bunnymen.


It seemed like poor reasoning at the time, but - thinking back - it was near-genuis. I had no comeback.



Has anyone else been dumped, or dumped anyone under vaguely amusing circumstances?

I should have dumped my first proper boyfriend on the grounds that he looked like a cross between andrew eldrich (sp?) from that dodgy goth band, 'the sisters of mercy' and Bono (in the 80s), from that very famous irish band.


I should have dumped my second boyfriend on the grounds that he looked like michael portillo (according to my mum). :-$


Edited : for TMI :-S

I have dumped someone on the grounds of not enough sex (not so unusual) but he rather stole my thunder the following month when he came out and moved to Brighton.


I would have gone out with Ian McCulloch (on the basis that Morrissey and I never made it up the aisle), except you know, I was at school at the time. I don't half envy her, Jah.

I've had a couple...


"We get on really well, and I think you're really attractive, and that's why I can't go out with you..." Eh??? I thought that was the entire point (?)


"You're allergic to things and drink strange tea" - 10 years later he declared his undying love. I didn't take him up on it...

Was that me? I used a near identical line once. There was supposed to be a "but..." near the end, but I stopped short.

LOL - I have no idea! Did you deliver this line in a bar on the south bank and then get back together with an old girlfried?

I am not sure I even classify this as being dumped but I got a text from a fella I went on 2 dates with

"whenever i feel a girl really likes me I get scared and run away"

my reply

"does it help if you know I think you're a bit of a knob with hobbit feet"


I never heard from him again. sighhhhhh.
