You should dump someone at least once in your life Katie....it's very empowering....makes you feel for a few moments that you are in control of your life and emotions, before collapsing into a tearful wreck on the sofa with a box of Kleanex, bottle of Chardonnay and a Brigit Jones DVD.

Empowering? Really?? I always came away feeling like I was a complete bastard, even though I was generally doing the right thing and calling a halt to something that was absolutely doomed anyway.

What Loz said. Dumping someone is never easy and can sometimes be quite painful and embarrassing. In the past I have often become very unreliable in a relationship that clearly wasn't working so that eventually they dump me. It's a lot easier that way and they may feel they've got one over you. But they haven't. But only you know that.
Unreliability can be hurtful too but it does kind of give clues. If a relationship is right then it's easy. Too many people hang on in relationships that are going nowhere or doomed and then wonder why they get dumped. You just have to be honest with yourself and never think you can't feel that way about someone else.

Oh that's where it went. Can I have my alarm clock back now please?

Well it could have been worse. She could have quoted Bono: "A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle".


Count yourself lucky.


(And before anyone says it, I know that was originally Irina Dunn, not Bono, but I was just trying to keep the popstar continuity going....)

I was once dumped for turning 30. By a fellow I didn't realize I was dating. He said it was moving too fast, and that my ticking biological clock was now a gong. He was scared that we would be shopping for furniture soon.


He ended by saying "It's not you, it's me".


Uh, thanks for clearing that up, freak!


He then married and knocked up the next girl he dated within the year.

    • Most of the groceries shops in Lordship Lane have a security presence…curious thing is I and another woman recently saw a shop lifter lift and not pay for a couple of packet of steaks, veg and bottle of wine..  Literally walked Pat the tills, one member of staff and security guard despite someone else going in front by a few people and mentioning person in question! I have to say, speechless and admired their bravado - I would not have the guts and knowing my luck, if I accidentally didn’t put something tru the till despite receipt would prob get stopped! Yes, worked with families, homeless and other people who were struggling for food so I do understand why they do it.. sad when you think about it, that in this day and age, all sorts of c people need assistance and help from community in general, food banks, olio etc….
    • Just not keen to have all these  things  in my body… having said  that, thinking about Covid again as need to come to London to two hospitals for poss overnight stays. 
    • And another one, number 6, has just gone passed as well!  I presume that the LTNs are blocking them from a more useful route. Or the surrounding road works. 
    • Yes, I saw an incident van too, earlier, around 3.30 - never seen one before. It did look as if it was on its way to something major.
